Some quotes about bitcoin from Jack Mallers in the video:

  - "it's an abritrage on the trend" (multiple times)
  - "humanity really found it's stride in inventing bitcoin"
  - "we made and engineered the best version of <money>"
  - "there's bitcoin and there's everything else"
  - "a well engineered freedom fighting tool for our species"
  - "gives everyone in the world real property rights secured by mathematics"
  - "first monetary asset that we've been able to engineer with no natural issuer"
  - "is a guaranteed fixed protected monetary policy and instrument"
  - "accessible to everyone and equitable for everyone. no one has an advantage"
What? I have no idea what he's talking about because he never bothers to explain why bitcoin is pure magic and all other crypto is trash. He's just jumping on CNBC to hype his flavor or crypto for obvious reasons.

> accessible to everyone and equitable for everyone. no one has an advantage

That could have been true if Bitcoin had a never changing block reward. The miners in the first 4 years (including Satoshi himself) had a huge advantage.
