Less than 1 hour left to start trading: Why Local.bitcoin.com is so important

I’ve been a crypto enthusiast for a while. Maybe because I’m relatively young, the idea of a decentralized, liberating currency for everybody is something that still excites me. We see technical improvements every day (now we have Schnorr signatures and CashShuffle), and we are fortunate to have amazing developers that make using Bitcoin feel like actual cash (or even better, I would say). All of this is awesome and part of the reasons why I’m now more supporting of Bitcoin Cash as the true implementation of the technology described in Satoshi’s whitepaper.

Now we are going to achieve another milestone: a dedicated website to transact Bitcoin Cash freely and in an uncensored manner. No KYC/AML, reasonable fees and a good company behind.

But there are some problems, and the main one is that the true adoption of Bitcoin does not come only from more people using it, but also from people understanding its inherent value and the freedom proposition that comes with it.

These days we are being tempted to exchange our privacy, freedom, and dignity for convenience or security. They tell us that we should “abide the law” and that we should have “nothing to hide.” That “Bitcoin is not for coffee” or even that “Bitcoin is not for poor people.” Those people sell us a fake vision of Bitcoin by wanting governments to control it, and making it so unusable and expensive that we have to go back to traditional financial institutions and centralization.

And it’s sad when you actually go around and see what people are saying. Some are forgetting that this is a financial revolution for everyone in every corner of the world. And if Local.bitcoin.com helps us achieve that, then welcome.

Bitcoin Cash is young, but grows a lot each day. And despite this difficulties, I know there are still people who will continue to protect these ideals. Thanks to everyone supporting it, thanks to the people who introduced me to it and than you for being a good community.
