This is a request for feedback.

I was thinking of an elevator pitch that best describes Byteball and came up with two versions of the pitch:

#1 Imagine a global database that records who owns what, as well as all transfers of ownership. The database is not controlled by any single entity, it is a common good. Everyone can have a copy of the database and all the copies necessarily agree. This is Byteball.

#2 Byteball is an environment that allows anyone to store value and transfer it to other users. The environment is not controlled by any single entity, it is a common good that is open to everyone like the Internet; and the value can be anything from completely untraceable currency to bank deposits with regulatory constraints.

Which version better resonates with you? Feel free to suggest a 3rd.

I would prefer version 2. It's less "technical" (no mention of terms like "database") and it's very clear in describing the core features of byteball.
