Someone asked me today “what is the point of Bitcoin?” How would you respond in one sentence without using any technical jargon, buzzwords, or clichés?

A lot of the replies here seem to answer "what bitcoin is" (yes, it's freedom money). But the question was "what's the POINT of bitcoin"?

I don't think it's enough to focus on "what problems of our current world will bitcoin fix". There are many!

What happens after those problems are fixed, and the world gets to run on a fair and efficient bitcoin standard for a while, maybe a long while?

I'd say that the POINT of bitcoin is to bring about a literal Star Trek future, where humanity flourishes on Earth, spreads out into the universe and climbs up on the Kardashev scale.

My biggest weakness is food. Any advice how to control that?

Try fasting, as it will give you perspective on food: you can go without it for long stretches of time. It's natural and healthy for humans to skip meals. Do it on a low-stress day/days and reset your relationship with food.

For me intermittent fasting was the easiest long-term win: just skip breakfast (it just takes time & money for basically no benefit) and you're already on a 16/8 intermittent fasting schedule. Ridiculously easy to do.

It helps to recognize that what you eat is a habit, so read Atomic Habits by James Clear and go from there. Experiment on what works for you. Some people find it easy to stick to a super-specific diet, others fluctuate with some kind of 80/20 logic and cheat days. There are no right answers, just experiments.
