            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When a new technology bursts on the scene, ready to rip up the form book, it creates a divide.</p><p>On one side, you’ve got sceptics, pessimists, and naysayers…</p><p>And on the other side you’ve got optimists and believers who see opportunity in this new technology.</p><p>We’ve seen new technology disrupt the world countless times.</p><p>The world got brighter when Edison discovered electricity...</p><p>The Wright brothers changed history with the plane…</p><p>And in 1886 Karl Benz built the first car.</p><p>Once the car was ready he got in it, started it up, and took it for a drive.</p><p>Now, I’m almost certain at some point he ran out of gas.</p><p>Bearing in mind it’s 1890, how did he fix that?</p><p>He couldn’t call the breakdown service, ‘coz it was 1890, and they didn’t exist yet.</p><p>He couldn’t phone his mate to drop off a jerry can from the local gas station, because they didn’t exist yet.</p><p>So while he was sitting there helpless, with his head in his hands, naysayers were laughing at him and shouting:</p><p><em>“Stick to horses, they’re safe and reliable”</em></p><p><em>“Those cars won’t last, they’re a bubble”</em></p><p><em>“Ban them - they’re dangerous and bad for the environment”</em></p><p>And they’d be right. Well, for a few years anyway. Because as a means of transportation, cars won, and horses lost.</p><p>As we can imagine it wasn’t a smooth journey to the top for cars.</p><p>Because when a new technology innovates, it must operate on top of the old technology.</p><p>In the case of cars, they had to operate on narrow, bumpy, cobbled horse tracks.</p><p>But as they got more popular, cars got more reliable, more gas stations were built, roads got smoother, which made it practical for car owners.</p><p>Suddenly, it was more convenient to own a car than travel by horse.</p><p>As the market for cars grew, it wasn’t just rich dudes who were driving them.</p><p>Normal folk were using them because they were better than horses, and as a result riding a horse as a method of transportation became obsolete.</p><p>Fast forward 110 years from the first car, today we have roads, bridges, highways, and cities built because of cars, trucks, and industrial machinery.</p><p>Would society be where it is today if we were still riding on horseback? I doubt it.</p><p>And considering the rapidly accelerating rate of technological adaptation, where just 4-5 years ago electric cars weren&apos;t really a “thing”...</p><p>We’re going to see changes the brain can’t even imagine…</p><p>Because 100 years from now banknotes will become obsolete thanks to some code on the internet that came to surface in 2009.</p><p>That bit of code is what we know today as…</p><p>Bitcoin.</p><p>Thanks to Bitcoin, the financial system as we know it will be a thing of the past…</p><p>And like horses, bank notes controlled by central banks and corrupt government officials will be talked about in history lessons.</p><p>I have no doubt 100 years from now, our grandchildren will be coming home from school asking questions like:</p><p><em>“Why did people work 9-5 to get a pension by the time they were nearly dead?</em></p><p><em>“Why did people pay taxes to fund wars they didn’t want to be a part of”</em></p><p><em>“What do you mean you couldn’t send money to another country without someone else approving it”</em></p><p><em>“What do you mean a small, select few made decisions for billions of people worldwide”</em></p><p><em>”Was there a time certain people could magically create more money out of thin air?”</em></p><p>See, despite all the money printing, the cost of living goes up, the wealth gap gets bigger, and poverty grows, while corrupt Government officials get richer by the day.</p><p>People are sick and tired of being lied to by parties who’re meant to have our best interest at heart…</p><p>They’re fed up with being controlled and manipulated by the media, who’re controlled by greedy, totalitarian authorities, big pharma and tech.</p><p>Until now, there hasn’t been a way out of this current system. From birth we’ve had to opt in, and conform to it.</p><p>But unbeknownst to most people, there’s a way out thanks to Bitcoin.</p><p>And once people understand <em>why</em> Bitcoin the technology was created, you’ll get why it poses so much threat to Governments and the banks.</p><p>Because the only way Governments can make us do what they want, is because we’re using their money.</p><p>But once society stops using their money, and instead uses currency like Bitcoin…</p><p>A currency that isn’t controlled by a person, a Government, or a corporation…</p><p>One that can’t be corrupted, manipulated…</p><p>A currency you can’t print more of (there will only ever be 21 million Bitcoins, and I’ll explain why this is a <em>good</em> thing another day)…</p><p>We’ll enter the biggest paradigm shift in human history.</p><p>Governments will become obsolete, because society won’t need them anymore.</p><p>But unless we, the people, do something about this, human greed will triumph and dictators will keep lying to get us to do what they want us to do, lining their pockets while we suffer.</p><p>To do this, we must exit the current monetary system and join a new one.</p><p>A system that isn’t controlled by a person, a Government, or a corporation…</p><p>One that’s transparent, borderless, and allows online payments to be sent directly from one person to another without going through a financial institution.</p><p>That’s why Bitcoin was created.</p><p>Because this new technology, this bit of code on the internet, has the power to make the world we live in more transparent, fair, and honest.</p><p>But given the opportunity and wealth it can bring back to the people, most people are too ignorant to bother learning about it.</p><p>And most people think it’s a scam, a ponzi scheme, and a bubble.</p><p>We can thank chavs in tracksuit bottoms, with their rented lambos, and fake screenshots of <em>“I made £10,000 today trading Bitcoin”</em> for that.</p><p>Fuck those losers.</p><p>Bitcoin is more than making money.</p><p>Bitcoin is a way out of this corrupt system.</p><p>Bitcoin is a way for the people to prosper.</p><p>It gives opportunity and hope for families and the younger generation.</p><p>And right now YOU have the power to make your life free and beautiful…but only if you take notice, and take Bitcoin seriously.</p><p>I don’t know about you, but I want that life.</p><p>That’s why I decided to take a stand, and educate you on all things Bitcoin with this mini series.</p><p>In the mini series you’ll discover:</p><ul><li><p>How Bitcoin can make you and your family never have to worry about money again…</p></li><li><p>From seashells, silver, gold, paper and now Bitcoin - How currencies have evolved over the years, why they evolved, and what exactly is money?</p></li><li><p>Why Bitcoin? What problems does it fix? What’s wrong with cash?</p></li><li><p>Why you should NEVER listen to the mainstream media and Government when Bitcoin is involved (and why it’s not a scam, bubble, or a ponzi scheme)</p></li><li><p>What makes Bitcoin prices go up? How do people make money from it? And when you should NEVER buy it.</p></li></ul><p>And a lot more.</p><p>The world as we know it is changing…and it’s changing FAST.</p><p>Are you going to keep up, or do you want to be left behind?</p><p>Keep an eye out for part 2 where I talk about the history of money, how Bitcoin is reshaping the financial system and why Governments are shitting themselves.</p><p>Coming soon.</p>]]></content:encoded>
