Why the Dollar Hates Bitcoin
Why the Dollar Hates Bitcoin
Description
Book Introduction
Why has Bitcoin only come to have a negative image of speculation, hacking, and money laundering?

This book focuses on helping readers understand the economics behind Bitcoin and how it is used as one of many currencies that have emerged throughout history and as the first digital representation of a currency.
Bitcoin was the first digital currency to demonstrate that it could be an alternative to central bank control.
In other words, it may be a signal that money may no longer be the exclusive domain of the privileged class.
If you're stuck in the misguided belief that Bitcoin is a scam or scheme created by speculators and planners looking to make quick and easy money, this book will provide a good opportunity to rethink the true meaning of Bitcoin.

This book, which begins with the statement that knowing history can help you see the future, urges readers not to view Bitcoin solely as an object of speculation or investment, but to make sound judgments about it only after fully understanding the economic characteristics and operating methods of the Bitcoin network.


We will learn about the history and functions of currency and explain the sound and unsound currencies that have had a significant impact on the development of human civilization.
Finally, we explain how the Bitcoin network operates and its core economic characteristics, analyze areas where Bitcoin could be used as sound money, discuss cases where Bitcoin might not perform well, and discuss misconceptions and misunderstandings surrounding Bitcoin.
