Current money systems usually collect
   Lots of personal information about users
      This information can be vulnerable to hacks
         And also identity theft, control, and censorship
            Many people do not want sensitive personal
               Information and documents stored online
                  Therefore
               Since it’s not criminal to want some privacy
            Let’s use a money system that doesn’t require
         Personal information simply to use money
      And doesn’t require submitting documents
   Which remain on vulnerable databases
We have this money now, in Bitcoin
See on a background at https://BitcoinPoems.pro
Fiat money relies on intermediaries
   Such as banks and government entities
      To facilitate transactions and keep records
         And ensure the integrity of the money system
            This system requires trust to make it function
               Yet the history of fiat currencies is replete with
                  Breaches of that trust - breaches of integrity
                     Therefore
                  Let’s move to a new money not based on trust
               With no reliance on any centralized authority
            But peer to peer verification through code
         Made secure by a decentralized network
      Allowing any and every user to validate
   Their own (and all) money transactions
This is Bitcoin.  Don’t trust, but verify

The problem with fiat money
   Is centralized control of the money
      Those in control of the money creation
         Always eventually yield to the temptation
            Of inflating the overall money supply
               Causing debasement of the currency
                  Decreasing its value for those who hold it
                     Therefore
                  People need a money that holds value
               Or actually increases in value over time
            This must be a money with a limited supply
         That cannot be changed in spite of temptation
      No person or group can be in control of this money
   This money must be decentralized
The solution is Bitcoin

We’re in a race to avoid a war
A race to open freedom’s door
A race to spread adoption wide
And bring ten million to our side

So spread the Bitcoin truth around
And share the benefits you’ve found
Every act, every tweet or share
Can help a friend to grow aware

You make a difference! Act today
Let’s win this race the peaceful way
We don’t need martyrs, we need you
Sharing Bitcoin - the way you do

Let’s not slacken, and let’s not slow
In sharing what we boldly know
And when we do, we’ll win this race
We’ll make this world a better place

We’re in a race to avoid a war
Let’s do what’s not been done before
An honest money for everyone
Come and join this race we run

When you see a better way
Spend time to build the new
Don’t reinforce the old ways
But work and build what’s true

Don’t spend your time on fighting
But build the new instead
For what you focus on will grow
So help the good to spread

Help build the Bitcoin system
For all in future years
So our children and their children
Live in hope instead of fear

A money system based in truth
Bitcoin is open and free
So let’s create, and build the new

Bitcoin increases my clarity
As it shines light and honesty
On what money can truly be

This clarity - it spreads through me
And helps me in my actions see
Those which bind, or set me free

Bitcoin builds my strength of mind
As my incentives get aligned
To hold my assets as designed

And so I find that I’m inclined
To conquer tasks that I’m assigned
And master skills that I’ve outlined

Bitcoin questions the status quo
Of the modern monetary show
To create money on endless flow

This helps me question what I know
Search for truth, and insight grow
These changes does Bitcoin bestow

Money allowed to ever expand
Brings scarcity to every land
Money scarce and tightly bound
Creates abundance all around

An ever increasing money supply
Destroys our freedom by and by
We’re not even free to choose
We must spend now or we will lose

The Bitcoin Standard echoes true
A sounder money for me and you
Allowing us to save, or invest
Or buy the things that we think best

Let’s build the world we want to see
With lots of wealth and energy
A world where money’s scarce and tight
With freedom sure, our future’s bright
Based on a quote by Jeff Booth
An abundance of money creates scarcity everywhere else
Scarcity in money creates abundance everywhere else

When people trash talk Bitcoin
Ask them some simple questions
See if they’ve done their homework
Below are a few suggestions

Who started Bitcoin years ago?
And what inspired this founder?
And how does fiat money work?
And why Bitcoin might be sounder?

When was Bitcoin started?
What’s relevant about that year?
And from the short whitepaper
What is meant by peer to peer?

Name two countries where it’s used
To protect from high inflation
And two more where Bitcoin helps
The people in oppressed nations

Maybe they know, maybe they don’t
Yet you’ll see how much they know
And maybe asking these questions
Will cause their knowledge to grow

An opinion based in ignorance
It’s worth?  Not very great
And maybe they will do the work
To improve their financial fate

Why do you fancy global elite
Try to sweep us under your feet?
Does it make you feel complete
To make others’ lives less sweet?

Are you really so hungry for power
That free people make you sour?
And you labor hour by hour
To take property and devour?

Our lives, liberty and property
Don’t need your shaping or tyranny
Your rules for us, but not for thee
Enjoy your wealth - let us be free

Do you really believe your lies
To deceive and plan and devise?
Causing power to centralize
In your control, since you’re so wise?

Bitcoin opens freedom’s door
So we can choose and plan for more
Our life and liberty we restore
Your great reset we do abhor
