Why Bitcoin and not shitcoin?

Money tends to have a single winner. People need to be convinced that someone

Bitcoin theft:
|
```md
|
||||||
Using bitcoin properly is like using a door lock properly. If you have a door
|
# Why won't something else replace Bitcoin?
|
||||||
lock on your door but forget to lock, then you can still be burglarized. If you
|
```
|
||||||
then complain, well, I had a lock, I thought it was used to protect me, how
|
|
||||||
come it didn't work? It didn't work because you didn't use it correctly.
|
Why won't something else replace Bitcoin?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(pause: 1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In order for something to replace Bitcoin for saving, it would need to
|
||||||
|
provide similar and even better properties. While some "cryptos" are also easy
|
||||||
|
to transport and scarce, none of them have the level of decentralisation of
|
||||||
|
Bitcoin, and that means their rules could change when under attack.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The decentralisation of Bitcoin goes beyond the mere technical and
|
||||||
|
organisational. There is also a culture of decentralisation, which acts against
|
||||||
|
attempts to centralise. There could be something else in the future which is
|
||||||
|
better than Bitcoin, but as time goes on it is less and less likely. It is less
|
||||||
|
likely now than it was five years ago, for example.

# Why do I hear all the time about Bitcoins being stolen?
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If Bitcoin is so secure, why are there so many reports about people losing
|
||||||
|
their money?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(pause: 1)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In order to benefit from Bitcoin security, you need to follow the five
|
||||||
|
principles of Bitcoin mentioned in an earlier video. Usually, when you hear
|
||||||
|
about Bitcoins being stolen, the people involved violated principle number two:
|
||||||
|
not your keys, not your coins. They entrusted their keys to someone who doesn't
|
||||||
|
know what they are doing, they left it in an unsecured computer, or their keys
|
||||||
|
got damaged beyond repair. It's similar to someone putting a massive lock on
|
||||||
|
their house door, but then leaving the lock open when leaving the house.

# If Bitcoin consumes a lot of electricity, do I also have to do that?
|

```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If Bitcoin consumes a lot of elecricity, do I have to worry about my
|
||||||
|
elecrticity bill?

When Bitcoin was originally launched in early 2009, there was only one software
|
||||||
|
doing all the work. Gradually, specialised software developed for the
|
||||||
|
individual activities involved in the network. The, nodes, verify the ledger
|
||||||
|
and enforce the rules. The, wallets, keep your private keys secure and initiate
|
||||||
|
transfers on your behalf. And finally, miners, which consume elecricity and
|
||||||
|
provide security for Bitcoin. In the meantime, mining is a business like any
|
||||||
|
other. Miners run in data centers and in special containers which can move to
|
||||||
|
wherever cheap energy is available.
