This is my feeling on the matter as well. Cryptocurrency allows us to utilize a network of transaction records that aren't controlled by one party. It can't be forcibly counterfeited without compromising the entire system, and since there are thousands of other coins, any attack on one can be minimized by simply moving assets to another. It is economic freedom, and crypto is quickly becoming more and more viable as an actual, day-to-day currency.

Upvoted and resteemed. Excellent piece, friend.
