" Bitcoin allows individuals to make peer-to-peer transactions, regardless of distance, all the while guaranteeing the validity of the transactions, without the risks inherent in duplicating and double-spending the digital money. In this way, Bitcoin allows us to hold and exchange value digitally without the use of a third party. This is a technological revolution in and of itself. " 

" How can something that no one can see or touch hold value? I often answer this question with the following: “We value trust and yet we can neither see nor touch it.” You could call this a rhetorical statement, yet hidden beneath it lies the only reason why fiat money has any value: trust. This is the paradox behind modern money's value. On the one hand, we have Bitcoin, a virtual form of money that is intangible, but that is truly scarce and limited. On the other, we have fiat money that we can all hold in our hands and whose value is based solely on trust. "
