In the Wall Street Journal there was a column about the main mission of bitcoin – financial freedom

An influencing American edition published an article that residents of the developed countries often criticize bitcoin only because of their own financial privilege.

While US citizens are accustomed to a stable dollar and reliable banks, for billions of people around the world the first cryptocurrencies was the only salvation from hyperinflation and authoritarian control.

The author Alex Gladstein recalls that bitcoin appeared after the crisis of 2008 as a protest against the rescue of bankrupt banks at the expense of taxpayers.

Today, in countries such as Nigeria, Egypt or Argentina, where national currencies have collapsed by 70-90%, it protects accumulators of ordinary families from complete annihilation.

The main value of bitcoin is a financial system, where no one can arbitrarily froze other people's money or cancel an honest transfer.
