Thank you! My next question that many would ask:

  • What happens if the systems go down?

I am playing devils advocate here so I can get a really clear view, not because I disagree :)

What happens if the systems go down?

Bitcoin is a fault tolerant distributed network. There are thousands of nodes around the world. They can join and leave the network at will. It would take a world wide cataclysmic event to bring down every one of these nodes in a way that they cannot be brought back online. My guess is we'll have bigger problems to worry about if that happens.

Here's a game to visualize the concept.
