If crypto does nothing else, it proves that government does not have some special knowledge about money that precludes private industry from establishing their own money markets.

If time is money and government has a monopoly on money, then government also has a monopoly on time. People are waking up to this fact and prefer a different option.

This year the existing pool of crypto users only save x% of their monthly income in crypto. This crypto savings rate stands to grow significantly in the coming years as the central banking model begins to crumble under its own weight as people decide that trusting bankers and government with a monopoly on money makes little sense.

In five years all existing crypto users could be saving 5-25% of their monthly income in crypto as their belief and conviction in a more fair and just alternative systems hardens. In the meantime the total number of users will also continue to grow. With everyone buying and accumulating according to their own rates of deferred gratification, the system won’t ever fail, especially if the core group of believers chooses to assign value to the various crypto networks out there.

While the total number of users continues to grow, it’s important to remember that all crypto needs to survive is the existing community to continue to agree that crypto has value as a source of empowerment, freedom, and deferred gratification and view it as a store of monetary value, independent from central banks and government.
