Bitcoin challenges your understanding of money
![Page 16: Bitcoin & Blockchain for Friends](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103105/58f9ab7f760da3da068b8436/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Banks: Bitcoin can’t work, It’s all about the Blockchain
![Page 17: Bitcoin & Blockchain for Friends](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103105/58f9ab7f760da3da068b8436/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
@SDWOUTERS
What’s the difference?
Bitcoin is a way to digitally transfer ownership
without a middleman
The blockchain is a database that records
ownership through time
![Page 18: Bitcoin & Blockchain for Friends](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103105/58f9ab7f760da3da068b8436/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A 5 minute explanation won’t make you understand why they matter

You then need to create a blockchain with more
computer power than the entire network combined

@SDWOUTERS
Governments and banks dislike…
because they have less control over us. They can't track what
we do with it, so people can use it for illegal activities.
CASH
because they have no control. They can track exactly what we
do with it, but we would also see what they do…

@SDWOUTERS
‣ Bitcoin is only 7 years old, it still needs a lot of development.
‣ We have never tried THIS before and it is about MONEY, not info.
‣ It’s like the Internet in the 90s:
‣ People don't get it. ‣ It looks ugly. ‣ We have few use cases. ‣ People don’t see how it will
change the world. ‣ Those who are disrupted by it
will do everything to stop it. ‣ Mainstream 10 years later ‣ Mass adoption 20 years later
