In reality, our economy is stored in centralized banks, but the birth of Bitcoin is an emerging technology. Bitcoin is a currency without a country. It can obscure the concept of national boundaries, and the handling fee is extremely low. Bitcoin Can help us solve many problems of monitoring funds.
I agree, bitcoins is the first real step away from banks. The big international banks have a monopoly on the financial system. It is very hard for the consumer to find a way around banks. Especially since cash is being used less and less. Now with crypto currencies we are finally the chance to be independent.
