Have you thought that bitcoin maybe the first step of this utopia? What if CIA behind this project? Would you still keep your money as bitcoins? Would you trust them? Do we know who the hell is Satoshi Nakamoto? I suure don't.
There is one big danger ahead. If the paper money gets removed, you will have no choice but to accept to get paid in crypto currencies. And to the big point:
If you keep your money in a goddamn computer, the government can rip you off instantly if they wanted it. I am not saying they aren't doing that already as most of us are keeping *our wealth in the banks. But cryptos will make their jobs easier. Much easier.
What if bitcoin price rises to 1.000.000$ and gold and USD become literally worthless? That's when bitcoin will be the world currency, and people gonna realise that gold is just a stone, USD is just a toilet paper.
Your won't have another choice but to store your money only in crypto, because the other choices will be worthless!
I am not sure if that's a good thing. Being dependent so much on computers just scares me.
You go through the exact emotions than many people has gone through MANY years ago, when people were told that they should accept paper
money and not precious metals like silver and gold. You just do not remember that, because it was way before our times. Paper money did
reflect a specific value in precious metals, for example gold... but that is not true anymore. Nobody even know if that gold is still in vaults or if
some women is wearing it on her finger now. Now we are told that the value is represented by a digital token on a network controlled by no
central authority... Mind blowing stuff.. The Great part of this technology is, that no single authority has control over your "value" and you
have been given that control. It will take a lot more years for people to grasp that concept... but we believe plastic cards is money or the
worthless piece of paper represents "value" ...
