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 & 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.

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.
