"9 )  If Bitcoin fails, We Will Own Nothing

We don’t own anything of value. Property & money are regulated & stored with custodians. You don’t own it; you just have a claim. With Bitcoin, the value of your life’s work can be stored in a few words. Free to take with you anywhere."

I disagree with this one because precious metals could take BTC's place instead. To avoid government/institutional management, we could trade with bars of gold or coins of silver. Granted, metals are way easier to steal than BTC is, and BTC is easier to trade with and carry, but it's not an absolute "we will own nothing".
