Part 6/12:
Bitcoin’s most revolutionary feature is its fixed supply: only 21 million coins will ever exist. This scarcity is enforced mathematically and maintained by a decentralized network of computers worldwide. Unlike gold's slow and uncertain supply growth, Bitcoin’s issuance halts entirely once the cap is reached, making it the hardest asset ever created.
Digital Portability and Divisibility
Transferring Bitcoin across borders is instantaneous and inexpensive—done in minutes with a simple internet connection. Unlike gold, which requires physical movement and security arrangements, Bitcoin can be stored in a digital wallet, memorized as a seed phrase, and carried anywhere without physical bulk.
