2020 or 1984? Can Bitcoin Save Us?

Can Bitcoin save you from a "1984" future?

George Orwell asks, "Are we headed for a 1984 future? Or maybe more of a Brave New World future? And can Bitcoin save you?" Yes! But probably in a different way than you might suspect. Bitcoin has the ability to break the monopoly control of money and open blockchain technology can change how trust works.
