Sure, but it wouldn’t be accurate to say it is unchangeable.

So you put so much value on a dollar backed by nothing with an unlimited supply and printer which can cause hyperinflation and is designed to do such? Ok

If I write you a twenty one million word note, will you give me your house?

Yes, under a few conditions.

1- The words are scarce
2- The word supply is capped and not able to be increased
3- The creator of the word is a decentralized network
4- The network created the words provides some sort of value

Then yes, I will sell you my house for your words.

Yes, but we typically don’t consider that supply, otherwise oil would also be a essentially fixed (given how long it takes to be created).

It is completely accurate to say there will never be more than 21 million BTC.

Oil is not scarce though. There is a difference.

You know why its called bit coin? Because just like a small bit that controls a war horse, I can control you by having your money in my pocket.

Exactly. I just think TotalYatMove description or Bitcoin was inaccurate both because the supply (circulating in this case) is not unchangeable and it was created (I have no idea what he could he even mean by saying it wasn’t).

Owned? Yes, a portion is. Controlled? Hardly.

Bitcoin is at $40,000 and it seems like no one cares

Three years ago during that insane bull run when it took over the world it only got to $20,000
