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.
