The greatest monetary experiment in human history began-and it is failing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThroughout the world, each generation finds it harder than the last to build wealth. Government debt has reached levels once thought impossible. Central banks manipulate interest rates, punishing savers, inflating asset bubbles and complicating productive investments. Unbridled money compounds inequality, feeds social and political discontent and encourages conflicts globally. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe monetary system designed in the twentieth century cannot survive the twenty-first. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBitcoin represents the most credible path to sound money.

Today it sits on corporate balance sheets and in sovereign reserves. The debate about whether Bitcoin can succeed is over. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut Bitcoin as savings technology is not Bitcoin as money.
