Bitcoin is Ethical – You own it, it can’t be debased or controlled, and it’s incorruptible.

Bitcoin is Digital Scarcity – Its capped supply of 21 million coins ensures scarcity forever.

Bitcoin is Global – A borderless system accessible to anyone with an internet connection, unlike stocks, artwork, or land.
Bitcoin is Immortal – Designed to last indefinitely due to its decentralised nature. It’s more like the internet than a company, a life form that will endure for centuries or even millennia.
