There are 2.1 quadrillion units of Bitcoin.

Not 21 million.

2,100,000,000,000,000.

They’re called satoshis.

Bitcoin can be divided down to 0.00000001 BTC.

So when someone says:

21 million Bitcoin isn’t enough for the world.

They’re thinking about Bitcoin like it’s 21 million physical coins.

It isn't.

One BTC contains 100 million sats.

21 million × 100 million = 2.1 quadrillion units.

At 8 billion people, that’s roughly 262,500 sats per person if Bitcoin were divided equally.

And the smallest unit is already worth less than a cent at today's prices.

The interesting part isn't that Bitcoin is scarce.

It's that scarcity and divisibility coexist.

There can only ever be 21 million BTC.

But there are enough individual units to divide that supply among billions of people.

@PeterSchiff Last time I checked Bitcoin was backed by Energy and Proof of Work. Hardly nothing. Try creating one on the cheap.

Purchasing power of $100 since the Federal Reserve was created:

1913: $100.00
1923: $57.89
1933: $76.15
1943: $57.23
1953: $37.08
1963: $32.35
1973: $22.30
1983: $9.94
1993: $6.85
2003: $5.38
2013: $4.25
2026: $2.99

The U.S. dollar has lost 97% of its purchasing power.

Fiat currency is the problem. Companies, institutions, securities, and technologies that strengthen Bitcoin are part of the solution. We can debate ideas without mistaking allies for enemies.

[Chris Meder @EVCurveFuturist]

99.7% of EVs will never need a battery replacement.

Petrolheads can keep parroting “what about the battery?” all day.

The real-world data says otherwise.

Tracking thousands of EVs built since 2022:
Just 0.3% have needed a battery replacement (outside recalls).

That’s 99.7% still running fine.

Now compare that to ICE:
Some engines hit failure rates of ~3.7%
That’s 12× higher than EV battery replacements.

Even the best engines barely approach ~0.3%
And that’s just the engine, not the rest of the drivetrain.

Here’s the reality:

EVs
• One core system
• Minimal moving parts
• Thermal management + smart chemistry (LFP especially)
• Gradual, predictable degradation

ICE
• Hundreds of moving parts
• Constant heat, pressure, friction
• Multiple failure points
• When it goes, it goes hard

Modern EV batteries are cooled, managed, and preconditioned to last.

So while people keep yelling “battery replacement”…
They stay quiet about far more common, far more expensive engine failures.

The data is clear. The panic isn’t and the lies are coming undone.

If quantum “kills” Bitcoin,

it also kills:
• Global banking system
• All SWIFT transfers
• Stock exchanges
• Military communications
• Nuclear command systems
• Almost every website on earth

If quantum computing kills Bitcoin, your portfolio will be the last thing you need to worry about.
