Bitcoin As A Currency

Historically, gold and silver were reliable but impractical forms of money, leading to the rise of paper currencies. However, moving away from gold-backed money enabled manipulation and debt-driven economies.

Bitcoin counters these issues. Its decentralized structure and fixed supply resist inflation and central control. Unlike gold, it is divisible, verifiable, and suited for modern trade. As digital currencies like the EU’s digital euro emerge, Bitcoin’s ability to restore monetary honesty and empower individuals becomes increasingly relevant.

Bitcoin & Taxation

This article examines the history of taxation and government debt, from medieval tithes to modern policies, highlighting recurring issues of mismanagement and unsustainable borrowing. Historical examples like the Southsea Bubble and Napoleonic Wars illustrate the consequences of financial overreach.

In modern times, UK economic strategies, whether Conservative or Labour, are critiqued for failing to address the nation’s £2.6 trillion debt effectively. The article proposes Bitcoin as a transformative solution, offering decentralization and transparency to prevent manipulation and promote accountability in public spending. Despite its potential, widespread adoption faces resistance from those benefiting from the current system.

Bitcoin & The Tulip Bubble

Since Bitcoin’s inception, it has frequently drawn comparisons to the Tulip Mania of the 17th century, where the price of tulip bulbs skyrocketed and then crashed dramatically. While Bitcoin has experienced similar surges and declines, its resilience over 15 years sets it apart from the short-lived Tulip Bubble. This essay explores the historical context of financial bubbles, the evolution of legal and economic structures, and the unique characteristics of Bitcoin that differentiate it from past speculative frenzies. By examining the encoded rules of Bitcoin and its resistance to governmental manipulation, we uncover why Bitcoin is poised to be a revolutionary asset in the financial world.

Bitcoin & Politics

As Western democracies face a year of elections, this article outlines how money has supported the development and growth of politics and governments through the last 300 years of history. Governments need the support of central banks to continue to function. I explore how that will change in a new economic world based on Bitcoin.

Bitcoin & Debt

In this newsletter, Bitcoin & Debt, I enlighten you on how debt, rather than gold, has become the foundation of our modern money system. I provide another chapter, assisting you in successfully navigating our world’s financial minefield and emphasising why this makes Bitcoin, as a form of sound money, so important.

Bitcoin & Banking

Do you want to know how banking evolved? Do you want a more straightforward understanding of why the financial system is as complicated as it is today? Life has taught me that something is usually being hidden when things get complex. The truth is often far simpler than you think. By exploring history, we will find the answers to the evolution of the complexities of modern banking in this newsletter.
