   The idea that software can be better, outdated software (entire online, from Operating Systems & everything down to the smallest devices) becomes a problem after it can't keep up with the hardware (or vise versa). Money & banks are only a very small portion, that would be thy thought.

This is probably one of the bigger things in my opinion. Really opens up the doors to people who didn't have easy access to banking and would've had to page huge fees.

It totally debunks keynesianism and other irrational beliefs.

The inflation is good myth...

Supply side economics...

Centrally planned economy...

Fiat money....

All of them are donkey crap theories, and bitcoin will demonstrate them to be false.
