Deep dives
Bitcoin as a Powerful Defense Against War
Bitcoin's decentralized nature and difficulty to seize make it less profitable and more challenging to fund wars compared to a gold standard. In a war scenario, refugees often leave behind their wealth to escape the conflict. However, if refugees had access to digital wealth like Bitcoin, they could easily carry their wealth with them, making war less profitable. This highlights the significant role Bitcoin plays in reorganizing human actions away from coercion, violence, and towards cooperation, peace, and trade.
