If you buy Bitcoin instead of putting a down payment on a home
Within 5 years you'll be able to buy the entire home in cash
Eg. $625K home, 20% downpayment = $125K
Buy 1.28 BTC instead
By 2030, the same house will cost less than 1.28 BTC
At that point, you won't even want to buy the house anymore
This is going to pop the artificially inflated housing bubble
Ignoring Bitcoin when it's on sale will be the biggest financial mistake of your lifetime
You can buy $10M for $83K
It's 2054
Bitcoin has failed
The gold bugs have convinced everyone that peer-to-peer exchanges of gold are the way to go
The world is now on a gold standard
You run a coffee shop
A customer walks in to buy a coffee but all they have is a 1 KG bar of gold
They take out their chisel and scale and carve off 0.054 grams of gold
You take the gold and send it to your gold purity specialist to confirm that the gold is pure
3-5 business days later, the test confirms that the gold is real
You call the customer back to your shop to get their coffee to complete the transaction
