Great overview and explanation of how money has historically worked, using the concept of layers rather than overly complicated models of assets vs. liabilities on a balance sheet. It’s a much easier way of visualizing the way money moves and who controls what in a monetary system. Looking at money through this lens, it becomes easy to see how and why BTC became the first layer asset in a digital system — and why there can be no other.
Be a first layer holder. Own your own keys. ✌️
