“Bitcoin isn’t real. It’s just digital.”
Okay. Let’s audit your life.
Your credit score? An invented number maintained by three companies you never hired.
Your bank balance? A database entry on someone else’s server.
Your 401(k)? A digital account record held by a financial institution, with rules governing when and how you can access it.
Your mortgage? A ledger entry tied to a legal claim on your house.
Your airline miles? Digital tokens that can be devalued whenever the issuer changes the rules.
Every card swipe is digital money. Every paycheck is digital money. Most of your financial life already exists as entries in databases.
The real difference isn’t physical vs. digital.
It’s who controls the ledger.
Most of those systems are digital claims someone else can freeze, alter, dilute, or revoke.
Bitcoin is different because you can hold the keys yourself.
