Crypto influencer: 'Bitcoin was created to give you true ownership of your money'

Simon Dixon, a crypto investor and influencer, said that Bitcoin was designed to provide individuals with "true ownership" of their money, independent of banks, government control, or centralized monetary policies. Dixon made this statement in a January 26 post on X.

“Bitcoin was created to give you true ownership of your money—free from banks, free from government permission, and governed by a fixed monetary policy that no central authority can alter,” Dixon said. “While anyone can use Bitcoin—whether an individual, corporation, government, or even a central bank—no one can control or change it. It’s money built for freedom.”

Dixon's comment was in response to an X user's remark: "I thought the point of Bitcoin was to avoid government manipulation," referencing recent developments where several governments are considering or adopting Bitcoin as a geopolitical asset. Dixon emphasized that Bitcoin was designed for "true ownership" and described it as "money built for freedom," highlighting its decentralized system that allows use by anyone without granting control to any entity.
