Bitcoin is natural money.
After a certain point, as we age, we have to slow down. You can slow this process but you can’t escape it. It’s just nature.
But for the past 50+ years, most people have been forced to work harder for longer hours as they’ve aged, due to the effects of the inflationary fiat system.
The natural path would be to expend energy when you have it to accumulate wealth that you retain and which continues to sustain you as you age and slow down.
Money that forces you to work harder as your vitality declines is unnatural and extremely sinister.
Gold may be the most natural money but, in this context, bitcoin is a close second and superior to gold in the modern world.
