Why does Bitcoin matter?

Bitcoin fixes the money in the world.

This is a problem that most people aren’t consciously aware of.

However, it’s a problem that impacts everyone and is felt when we buy groceries, fill our gas tanks, and pay bills for goods and services: the money is broken

Under the current monetary system, prices rise forever as governments and central bankers continually create more money (re: what is inflation) While wages also rise, they do not increase at the same rate as monetary inflation (money creation). 

Since the current money is forever in a state of increasing abundance, it becomes increasingly less valuable over time.

There are forever more and more monetary units to pay for the same quantity of goods and services. Eggs, gas, your house – these are not becoming more valuable. The monetary units they are priced in (dollars) are becoming less valuable, requiring more of them to purchase the good.
