The speaker notes the presence of Ethereum and other altcoins, which sparked questions about whether they threaten Bitcoin’s dominance. Many wonder if altcoins dilute value or weaken Bitcoin's position.

Historically, currencies were imposed on populations—unselected artifacts of specific countries and their geopolitical struggles.
