At 3% inflation, prices double in about 24 years (rule of 72: 72 divided by 3). Savings that don't keep up lose buying power quietly. That's the problem Bitcoin's fixed supply was designed to answer.

@RobbieW86305226 @BitcoinMagazine @jack Good to hear. Which vendors near you take it? Real-world spending is the best proof it works as money.

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

@CBRobber Fair point, people watch it. But the network runs the same at any exchange rate. The 21 million cap doesn't move with the quote.

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

The exchange rate is irrelevant.

Bitcoin is money.

[Central ₿ank Robber @CBRobber]

@_ARob Yes, BTC has superior monetary properties. But the USD is the world's reserve currency with a market cap that dwarfs Bitcoin's. Everything is currently priced in USD. Everyone intuitively knows the purchasing power of a dollar. That's why it's a relevant yard stick for Bitcoin.

Now a days being too real is a curse.

[Paul @0xPaulvibe]

@_ARob Exactly Allan, the bots do the scan and the first draft, the yes stays with me 💪🏻

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

Agreed that the exchange rate matters. It's the scoreboard for monetization, and nobody stacking sats is indifferent to it.

But a scoreboard isn't the game. The USD price tells you how much capital Bitcoin has absorbed so far. It doesn't tell you why it's absorbing it: fixed supply, no issuer, final settlement, and savings no one can dilute.

And notice the ruler we're using. Measuring Bitcoin in dollars means measuring a fixed-supply asset against a unit that's designed to lose value. Part of “number go up”is just the dollar going down.

So the exchange rate is relevant during the transition. The end goal isn't a higher USD price. It's the point where we stop quoting it in dollars at all, because goods are priced in sats.
Care about the price. Just don't mistake it for the thesis.

[Central ₿ank Robber @CBRobber]

@_ARob The exchange rate is entirely relevant. It communicates Bitcoin's performance in absorbing capital from the world's reserve currency, that it is competing with for monetary dominance.

There isn't a single Bitcoiner who doesn't care about Bitcoin's relative strength to the USD.

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

@BTCsessions A simple rule I teach beginners: a real-looking email is not proof it's real. If any message asks for your seed words, it's a scam, no matter whose name or logo is on it.

Is a flexible supply good or bad? People disagree, and that's a fair debate.

But everyone should know how it works.

Which part should I unpack next? Tell me below 👇

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

Where does money actually come from?

Most of us never learn this. Here's the plain-English version in 7 posts. 🧵

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

So the supply of dollars isn't fixed. It depends on lending, policy and decisions made by people.

That's a big contrast with Bitcoin, which follows a fixed public schedule.

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

Takeaway: your savings can't be watered down by someone else's decision.

What surprised you most about how the cap is protected?

Educational only, not financial advice. #Bitcoin

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

What would stop someone from making one extra bitcoin?

Not a CEO. Not a central bank. Just a simple check, run by people like you 🧵

[Allan Robinson | Sound Money Basics @_ARob]

And 21 million isn't "too few." Each bitcoin splits into 100 million sats, so you can save small amounts.
