If you had bought and held unto $100 of bitcoin in 2010, you would have approximately $41,000,000 today in February 2022! Those are astronomical gains, but most people didn’t know about bitcoin at that time or understand that it's the future of money. Even today, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and binance coin sound like unintelligible concepts; concepts that only the “experts” - the computer geeks - can understand and take advantage of.

Publisher's summary
At Unbounded Capital, we think that the current industry leading investors and projects, whom we refer to as the crypto consensus, are aiming toward goals that have no product market fit.
In this book, we explain the issues with these crypto consensus goals and offer our own vision of how a version of Bitcoin which scales, Bitcoin SV (BSV), will ultimately eclipse these crypto consensus blockchains, ultimately growing to rival and subsume the internet in scope and size.

What do Google, Snapchat, Tinder, Amazon, and Uber have in common, besides soaring market share? They're platforms - a new business model that has quietly become the only game in town. A platform, by definition, creates value by facilitating an exchange between two or more interdependent groups. So, rather than making things, they simply connect people. The advent of mobile computing and its ubiquitous connectivity have forever altered how we interact with each other. Yet, few people truly grasp the radical structural shifts of the last 10 years.
