TD₿: Bitcoin Use Cases (a thread) by Anil
TL;DR We often misunderstand the use cases of new technologies because they don't fit inside our existing world.
Hey Bitcoiners,
Bitcoin means many different things to many different people.
To some it is primarily used today as a store of value to protect themselves against inflation, to others, it is a brand new payment technology that greatly improves their ability to send money back home to their families.
Bitcoin often gets labeled as “digital gold” because it is an easy analogy for individuals to grasp, but Bitcoin is so much more than that.
Bitcoin is a transformative technology that will have many different use cases as it reshapes the world around us. With a brand new technology, people often have a difficult time predicting all the ways it will impact our lives.
My friend Anil wrote another great Twitter thread where he unravels all the major use cases that Bitcoin enables today (03/15/22).
I believe we can’t even imagine some of the game-changing products and services that will be created on top of Bitcoin in the future.
Be careful to not put Bitcoin in a box.
