我想花一些時間談論比特幣。 雖然我有很多同情什麼比特幣社區要達到的目的，我只是覺得自己有錯車輛。 現在，我認為比特幣背後的想法是，以數字化複製的黃金。 一種的金標準互聯網。 黃金2.0有一些人指稱。 你知道，如果你看一下比特幣，他們接觸到的存在的方式就是這樣，他們開採就像實物黃金。 你我成exixtence。 就這樣開採黃金，當你挖掘的比特幣，你居然耗費真正的資源，真正的能源。 沒有與創造比特幣的相關成本。 就像有黃金，而相比之下，各國央行創造貨幣的相當數額無限白白，憑空在幾乎沒有成本。
也像黃金，是有一定限度有以可開採進入存在有有只有2100萬比特幣稀缺。 我想現在有大概1200萬美元。 所以還是有更多可以創建，但再次，是要花錢的話。 還如金，比特幣是約數。你可以帶一件比特幣，讓它們共同將有一個整體硬幣的價值億小數比特幣。 但這個想法是，你可以把你的比特幣成用於交易更小的增量，就像黃金。 你可以有一盎司黃金，那麼你可以有半盎司，一盎司的十分之一。 可以使小批量是更理想的交易。 但與黃金不同，你可以在瞬間把你的比特幣在互聯網上。 你總不能老是做黃金。 你可以`噸的運輸黃金，因為黃金確實有實質內容。 在網絡空間存在的比特幣。
當你有黃金，你必須保護它。 它會被偷走，你必須保護它，它甚至可能會花費你的錢存放。 它不會花費你任何錢存放在比特幣的數字錢包。 所以真的比特幣的複製金所有屬性，甚至提高對其中的一些。 但在這裡就是問題所在。 它們複製所有屬性以外的唯一最重要的。 你看到沒有該屬性，黃金永遠不會被金錢。 我說的價值，內在價值，金屬本身。 比特幣不具有任何。
之所以成為黃金的錢，首先它被評價為一種商品。 這是一個奢侈品，通過了著名的世界，每個人都希望黃金。 所以你知道，如果你需要的東西，你總是可以買黃金，因為即使誰接受你的黃金人不想要的話，他知道別人誰做。
黃金是唯一適合做的錢超過了很多其他商品。 它基本上贏的錢的自由市場競爭，因為它有很多其他的特性。 這些都是特點，比特幣的複製，但它們不是複製的內在價值。 這首先提出黃金可取的。
Bitcoin Is The Wrong Vehicle
I want to spend a few moments talking about Bitcoins. And while I have a lot of sympathy with what the bitcoin community is trying to achieve, I just think they have the wrong vehicle.
Now, I think the idea behind bitcoin was to digitally replicate gold. A kind of a gold standard for the internet. Gold 2.0 has some people have alleged. And you know, if you look at bitcoins, the way they come into existence is just that they are mined just as actual gold. You mine them into exixtence. And just like mining gold, when you mine for bitcoins you actually expend real resources, real energy. There is a cost associated with creating a bitcoin. Just like there is with gold, in contrast to central banks that create pretty limitless amounts of currency for nothing, out of thin air at virtually no cost.
And also like gold, there is a limit there is a scarcity in that there there only 21 million bitcoins that can be mined into existence. I think right now there are probably around 12 million. So there is still more that can be created but again that is going to cost money to do so. And also like gold, bitcoins are divisible. You can take one bitcoin and make 100 million fractional bitcoins that collectively would have the value of a whole coin. But the idea is that you can break your bitcoin up into smaller increments for transaction, just like gold. You can have an ounce of gold, then you can have half an ounce, one tenth of an ounce. You can make smaller quantities that are more ideal for transactions. But unlike gold, you can instantaneously send your bitcoin over the internet. You can`t do that with gold. You can`t transport gold, because gold actually has substance. Bitcoins exist in the cyberspace.
When you have gold, you have to protect it. It can be stolen, you have to guard it and it may even cost you money to store it. It does not cost you any money to store bitcoins in your digital wallet. So bitcoins really replicate all the properties of gold, even improving on some of them. But here is the problem. They replicate all the properties except the single most important. You see without that property, gold never would have been money. I am talking about value, intrinsic value, the metal itself. Bitcoins does not have any.
The reason gold became money, first it was valued as a commodity. It was a luxury good, known through out the world, everybody wanted gold. And so you knew that if you needed something you could always buy it gold because even if the person who accepted your gold did not want it, he knew somebody else who did.
Gold was uniquely suited to be money over a lot of other commodities. It basically won the free market competition for money because it had a lot of other characteristics. These are the characteristics that bitcoin is replicating, but they are not replicating the intrinsic value.That made gold desirable in the first place.
