Bitcoin Quotes

Every part of Bitcoin is text. It is always text, and never at any point ceases to be text. This is a fact, and as text, it is protected under the free speech provisions of the constitutions of civilised nations with guaranteed, irrevocable rights.

No, Bitcoin is not money. It is a database.

Bitcoin will eliminate coercion, by de-funding the state, and the delusional people who think it is necessary to plan society.

Bitcoin is no “community”, bitcoin is simply math.

Bitcoin is the most conservative thing since at least queen Victoria, if not outright Jesus. Bitcoin makes so-called “progressive” tax schemes unworkable. Bitcoin makes any sort of public welfare untenable. Bitcoin makes anyone’s pretense of equality with anyone else risible.

Bitcoin doesn’t make it easier for anti-capitalists, it makes it harder. Bitcoin doesn’t make it easier for anti-corporatists, it makes it harder.

Bitcoin, in and of itself, is in no need of any particular government or any government at all. It doesn’t need the Internet, as proven by the existence of brain wallets, and it doesn’t need computers : you could do the whole blockchain thing pen-on-paper if you had the inclination. It doesn’t even need people : it’s perfectly possible for gas molecules somewhere to play out keypair generation, hashing, blockchain creation and all that.

people, computers, the Internet, and ultimately any particular government and government in general is irrelevant to Bitcoin.
