Buy Bitcoin in Germany
While countries like Venezuela and India have been adopting bitcoin partially out of necessity, Germans (and the rest of the world) have watched their bank bailouts keep the EU printing currency at a massive rate. With the UK’s exit from the eurozone and Italy wanting off the euro for years, buying bitcoin with euros before it crashes, gives Germans a great way to store value without politicians and bankers and devaluing their wealth.
The Brexit vote was a great example of central banks “screwing” (unintentionally perhaps) an entire country. Anyone with plans to use their Pounds internationally lost 10% of the value, regardless of how they had voted the day before.
Storing wealth in a centralized currency costs everyone, the decentralized value of bitcoins protocol is unintentionally “marketed” by the global financial markets constantly.
