While some believe that Bitcoin will scale to everyone and be used as a medium of exchange, others, like Adolfo, think that Bitcoin's primary value lies in enabling private property and trust in the digital age. Adolfo believes that Bitcoin will not be a generally accepted means of exchange due to its volatility and lack of stability compared to fiat currencies. However, he sees Bitcoin as a valuable asset for enabling exchanges that are not possible otherwise. The speculation and casino-like behavior surrounding Bitcoin do not change its fundamental value. Liquid is a sidechain of Bitcoin that enables advanced financial applications and connects local assets with global liquidity. It removes the need for trusted intermediaries and allows for faster and cheaper transactions. Liquid is managed by a federation of companies and uses a consensus model similar to national stock exchanges. It is different from Lightning Network, which is more focused on scalability for UTXO-based assets. Liquid is also different from Fedimint and ARK, which are other blockchain projects in early stages. The future of humanity with limitless power on a Bitcoin standard is uncertain, but the key is to preserve Western values and the tradition of criticism.
