The power of Bitcoin is underestimated, although in order to control it you must take certain things into account.
Right now the government can seize you:
- Your homes
- Your land
- Your cars
- Your stocks/investments
- Your business
As a general rule the government can seize anything where it issues a title deed which is nothing more than a right-to-use title.
As you can see there is no private property for these assets.
And this is where Bitcoin comes in, Bitcoin is authentic private property, surpassing the level of gold, jewelry, precious stones or works of art. Because it surpasses them? because it is easier to defend, remember that private property exists as long as there is the real possibility of defending it, that is, the level of private property of a given good is directly proportional to the ability to defend it by the owner against attacks from third parties.
A house is impossible to defend against the state, you need an army to prevent its seizure. A jewel, gold and a work of art is easier to defend, you just need to hide it well. Bitcoin is tremendously easy to defend, in the extreme case, it is hidden in your mind.
However, the state can use confiscable assets such as houses, land, vehicles, businesses, etc. to coerce you into handing over your Bitcoins. Keep this in mind when planning your life in the face of a possible government attack.
In other words, shy away from government-issued assets, they take away your freedom and make you dependent and detract from the power of Bitcoin.
