LFC_Bitcoin just sent me 0.00587140 BTC (the equivalent of around $50). He doesn't know who I am. I don't know who he is. We did not have to register to any site or server. No one, I repeat, NO ONE, could stop this transaction from happening. Even if one miner refused to confirm it for some reason, there are thousands more who would. There were no intermediaries. No company or bank to allow or deny it. He cannot take it back. No one can. He was the sole owner of that amount. He transferred ownership to me. Now I am the sole owner of that amount. He did this from (probably) thousands of miles away from me. He did not have to send anything by mail. It happened over the air. Electronically. It took less than half an hour. It cost less than $0.40. It will stay in the Blockchain forever. That's Bitcoin.

Standard lying scammer or idiot post. You can't even use the internet itself without "intermediaries", so your statement was already garbage out of the gate, and Bitcoin just adds even more rent seeking middlemen and intermedaries on top of that in the form of centralized transaction validators, nodes, and everything else. We won't even touch upon the centralized 'development' aka dictator, while physical metals have no need of a 'developer' aka dictator. If it was 'decentralized' there would be no developer at all.
Secondly, you did not receive any money because money is required to be a physical commodity resource. Claiming something is 'good' because it can be sent over a telephone line is a joke. He could have just as easily sent you an email. Is an email 'money'? No. Neither is a Bitcoin. It's just a worthless timestamp. How many commodities do you know of that can be sent over telephone lines? None. People lie and claim Bitcoin is a commodity when it's obviously not.
Money is required to be both fungible and a commodity. Bitcoin is neither. You can look at it as a system of control designed to track and monitor anyone who uses it, or valueless timestamps, or an extremely primitive video game, but that's about it. Nothing about it correlates to anything in the realm of commodities or money. It can be a currency since all currencies are Keynesian scams based on artificial scarcity that start at a value of zero and inevitably return there, but that's about it.
Why are you scared of your lies and scams being exposed? Afraid Bitcoin has zero fundamentals with zero chance of defeating physical metals?
, I realized, since 2016, I doubled my BTC amount every year.
