Venezuelan 🇻🇪#socialist #president, Nicolas Maduro, requested $1.2B worth of Venezuelan #gold ⚜️be removed from Bank of England🇬🇧 and returned to Venezuela. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Bank of England 🏴 denied #Maduro and refused to return the gold ⚜️to #Venezuela .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why does this matter❓
Because this highlights a major advantage that #bitcoin🥇and #cryptocurrencies have over gold⚜️. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Many smart people want a sound economic system that prevents the endless printing of money🖨, such as a gold⚜️ backed currency like the #US used to have. This prevents #hyperinflation because the supply of money is capped by the amount of gold⚜️ a country has. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The problem with using gold⚜️ as a currency is that the gold backing the currency still has to be stored somewhere by some entity that you #trust.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But what happens when that entity is not trust worthy❓
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can say good bye to that gold⚜️ you thought you had. 🤦🏻♂️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cryptocurrencies allow you to become your own #bank 🏦 where you don’t rely on any other entity. You have full control over your #money .
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Trust #math and computer science💻, not people👨👩👧👦. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
