If you’ve heard that Bitcoin is going to revolutionize money, but aren’t quite sure what that means, this talk is for you. Bitcoin entrepreneur and enthusiast Jad Mubaslat explains the key features of what makes anything (whether it is precious metals, paper notes, shells, or cows) viable as a currency for exchanging value. He then lays out how a digital currency like Bitcoin has all the same features necessary to be a currency, with some additional advantages that are unique to the blockchain technology upon which Bitcoin is built. Jad Mubaslat has been passionate about Bitcoin for several years. He founded BitQuick.co while attending The Ohio State University in 2013. The Bitcoin trading platform was accepted into leading Bitcoin accelerator, Boost.VC in 2014; BitQuick.co was then later acquired in 2016. Since then, Jad has remained an active advisor to the company, organizes a meetup for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in the Dayton area, and now works at Rain Financial, the first regulated cryptocurrency exchange in the Middle East. Jad received a BS in Biomedical Engineering in 2015 at Ohio State and an MS in Human Factors Engineering in 2018 at Wright State. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

The problem why few people have seen this talk is that most people are not interested in what money is, or how the money they use every day is created. Most people unfortunately don't make the "effort" and research to understand it. But on the other hand, most people complain that they don't have enough money. Paradox!

@ChandraChandra-wx9em 3 жыл бұрын

I agree - but a few concerns. 1. Bitcoin can be lost (once lost cannot be recovered.) No means to recover the lost bitcoin. 2. There will only be 21 million bitcoin in the whole world with a population of over 8 billion. Already the bitcoin is in the hands of early adopters or with institutions. Which means the new comers cannot get any bitcoin unless they are in the top economic tiers in the society. 3. The price of bitcoin keeps increasing rapidly which makes it even harder for the next generation to lay their hands on unless bequeathed to them. Or they have to accept it as payment 4. By then, the value of bitcoin would be so high and the wealth distribution so unequal that the poor has to work for peanuts of bitcoin. doesnt make sense to me. for example - If I am a day laborer and need to get paid my wages, noone would give me a portion of bitcoin. The transaction rates are high. 5. Bitcoin doesnt work with illiterate people. Illiterate people can use all other forms of currency mentioned above, but very difficult to use bitcoin. 6. As time goes, bitcoin cannot be used for daily shopping etc. For example - Tesla started accepting bitcoin as payment. I would say that any person that is using bitcoin to purchase the car now(in 2021) is foolish. Because, considering that the person is buying 50000 dollar worth of car using 1 bitcoin (suppose 1 bitcoin is equal to 50 k today. It actually is 47K). I giving more to Tesla. Because the bitcoin, considering people's mindset will appreciate in value. If it goes to 100 K in the next year, the person that bought the car, just lost 50k and the car depreciated too. 7. from point 6, this will make the value of things inherently cheaper, as the value of bitcoin goes up. 8. Bitcoin is a digital asset that is not tangible. Its value is only perceived. For example if there are more sellers of bitcoin than buyers, the value would drop drastically. Doesnt make sense. 9. If there is another crypto currency that has the same features as bitcoin and another famous celebrity vouches for that, then bitcoin value could drop. (this is whimsical - but can turn out to be true) 10. If there is a big catastrophe, bitcoin would become worthless. People would prefer to have gold instead of bitcoin. (you can argue that you can hold bitcoin in your wallets. consider there is no connectivity, nothing - then a piece of gold or for that matter any commodity (bottle of water) would have more value than bitcoin) 11. Bitcoin can ACT only as a hedge. The moment it comes into circulation worldwide, it is doomed. And it cannot come into worldwide circulation. Consider governments accepting it. 12. Bitcoin for some crazy unforeseen reason may tank in the future, and may not hold any value. 13. Bitcoin can never replace actual currency totally. 14. Gold is regulated and inspite of that it is valuable. Consider bitcoin getting regulated - I dont think it can stand a chance. 15. Silly point- Lost gold can be found by some stranger and can be used to his/her betterment. Lost bitcoin is gone forever. Total loss. Disclaimer: I am a small time bitcoin trader myself, but honesty dont believe in its longevity. I am just in for the short haul.

Good points made, another concern is that the financial system is an extremely complex network to be just facilitated by bitcoin only, it can never happen unless banks decide to adopt it for some reason but highly unlikely. Banks only use bitcoin to make market for speculative trading not for collateral in the financial system, banks use Treasury securities as collateral to keep the financial system going.
