Bitcoin & the Awakening Journey
Opening our mind to what Bitcoin is and how it impacts humanity involves a deep journey of genuine and humble inquiry. We cannot go very deep in this inquiry when our mind is full of preconceived notions inherited from the existing model of civilization and monetary system.
​
Bitcoin requires from us to acknowledge our own ignorance on fundamental questions about money, energy, value, fairness, morality and even virtue and transcendence. Our attachments to identities and borrowed or rigid ideas will prevent us from joyfully and innocently dive back into the state of students of human life.
​
The invention and birth of Bitcoin and its impact on humanity are so profound that it might take several generations for humanity to get a clear collective perspective on the nature and magnitude of that breakthrough.
​
In the meantime, we can use Bitcoin to understand our nature as human beings, reflect on our faults and limitations in relation to the rest of humanity, and to learn to align with superior values of truth and integrity.

Bitcoin misconceptions
There are many misconceptions that surround bitcoin and keep many in confusion in relation to this extraordinary emergence. Clearing these misconceptions is usually a long journey as there are many layers and dimensions to consider in the topics that bitcoin concerns such as economics, finance, monetary theory, sociology, politics, psychology, information technology, governance, entrepreneurship, energy production, ecology, spirituality and many more.
​
Bitcoin is backed by its unique and inimitable digital qualities to serve the function of digital money. It is secured by the biggest wall of physical energy infrastructure in the world that ensures a balanced grounding of its digital properties within our physical reality and the inability of governments or big corporations to exercise control over the network.
​
Contrary to popular belief, bitcoin is not just a crypto-currency and cannot be compared with other crypto-assets or tokens. "Crypto" is all the rage and the scene of a lot of speculation and technological development but this cannot be considered in the same way as the type of revolution that bitcoin represents. Furthermore, emotional and/or financial involvement with other crypto assets is usually a main obstacle on the path to deeper levels of understanding of bitcoin due to the cognitive dissonance that it creates.
Bitcoin is the only proof-of-work blockchain network in the world that is leaderless and decentralized. The very nature of global decentralization makes it impossible to be intentionally replicated by any individual or group.
​
As you deepen your discovery and study of bitcoin, you will realize that it represents a tremendous blessing for sustainability, renewable energy production, the health of our planet, the physical, mental and spiritual health of humans, and more... All this despite the fact that bitcoin is painted as the opposite by the people who stand to lose from its breakthrough success.
