Bitcoin clicked for me when I stopped thinking of it as an investment

Most people see Bitcoin as just another risky tech stock—or worse, like buying a lottery ticket. I used to think that way too. But the deeper I dug, the more I realized it's not just about price or profit. It’s really about freedom, math, and time.

Freedom: It's money that doesn't need permission. No central banks, no middlemen—just a system built on rules, not rulers.

Math: For the first time, we have digital scarcity. 21 million coins. Verifiable, auditable, and protected by a decentralized network.

Time: A new block every 10 minutes. Halvings every four years. It’s built to respect time in a way fiat never has.

I’m not trying to pump anything here—I just think a lot of people miss the bigger picture. Bitcoin isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme. It’s more like a get-free-slowly path. And the more I learn about money, history, and trustless systems, the more it all clicks.

What was the moment it clicked for you?
