Bitcoin Anthem
Technology is progressing at an incredible rate of speed
So many things we use in our lives depend on technology
From the internet on dial up and AOL cds
Signing up for Hotmail and Geocities
Selling on Ebay and accepting their fee
Downloading from Napster your first mp3
Trusting in Paypal to hold your USD
Paying for goods and services through a credit company
All of these things were created in the 1990s
And most of them evolved and changed or died presently
Now we have fiber and Verizon connectivity
Gmail for advanced emailing ability
Anyone can host their website at Godaddy
Sell your stuff on Openbazaar for absolutely free
Napster had the right idea with p2p
But now you’re stuck entering your Apple ID
The only thing that hasn't changed is monetary
It’s time for us to adopt a new policy
One that isn’t manipulated and controlled centrally
But one that is voted on by you and me
One that doesn’t gather up your identity
And then get hacked and leak it out for everyone to see
One you simply cannot increase the supply indefinitely
But one that encourages saving by being deflationary
Brick and mortar banks all hold your money digitally
Why not do it yourself with a public and private key?
There is no use for the middle man as an intermediary
When consensus algorithms show us all how to agree
The vision of Satoshi was truly revolutionary
And Bitcoin may someday be our global currency
