Hello, Everyone

I'll keep this short.

What does BTC mean to you?

Some may say freedom others say hope in a world of restriction, love to hear your responses.

For me, I agree that Bitcoin is freedom because when I have Bitcoin in my wallet, I can send it to anybody that wants to receive it for payment, the government restrictions can not stop Bitcoin from leaving my wallet to another users wallet. Government will restrict users from using Bitcoin and they can destroy every means by which users can freely spend their Bitcoin but yet they can not permanently stop Bitcoin to move from one wallet to another. The government can freez a bank account and stop money from leaving or entering the account but they can not do the same to Bitcoin and that is why I say Bitcoin is freedom.

But there is one problem that you forgot, you cannot use bitcoin to pay daily bills, you still need to convert your bitcoin into fiat currency to be able to use it for daily use. So, bitcoin can give us freedom and privacy but it is not completely free or 100% anonymous.

One more thing, I think many people come to bitcoin not because of the freedom and privacy that bitcoin brings. Profit is what we are looking for in bitcoin and that is the main goal more than anything else.
