1.) DIGITALLY DURABLE."
It is designed so that only the person who knows
private key controls the bitcoin associated with a
given public (key) address.

2.) PORTABLE, SENDABLE."
Remember that trillion dollars you hold in bitcoin?
Well, you can send half of it, for example, to someone
else on the other side of the globe in minutes, just like
an email. This is something that was never done
before so seamlessly and without a middleman.

3.) HIGHLY DIVISIBLE."
The satoshi is currently the smallest unit of the
bitcoin currency recorded on the blockchain. It is one
hundred millionth of a single bitcoin (0.00000001 BTC)
or $0.00006386 USD at current prices.

4.) DIGITALLY SCARCE."
Bitcoin introduced something that has never existed
before: the concept of digital scarcity. For example,
while most US dollars today come in digital form,
more is always created something that has
ballooned the US national debt to over $20 trillion.

5.) DECENTRALIZED & APOLITICAL."
This is probably the most important concept
introduced by Bitcoin. Whether its a soccer mom or a
terrorist, Bitcoin doesnt care who uses it. Its simply a
technology a protocol for transferring and storing
value just like the Internet is for transferring and
storing data.
