- What if a Bitcoin-backed bond could save Social Security? 🤔 BitBonds might be the most progressive fiscal tool yet — and they could reshape how we fund the future. Article out now from our Exec. Director @trey.progressivebitcoiner.org progressivebitcoiner.org/bitbonds-mig...
- Social Security faces long-term funding challenges. Traditional fixes often involve politically sensitive measures like tax hikes or benefit cuts. But what if there’s a more innovative solution?Apr 18, 2025 16:04
- Enter BitBonds: a novel concept that leverages Bitcoin’s technology to create a new form of government bond. These bonds could offer a transparent, and potentially inflation-resistant funding mechanism.
- By utilizing BitBonds, governments might tap into a global pool of investors seeking stable, long-term returns, thereby reducing reliance on traditional debt instruments.
- This approach could align with progressive values by promoting financial inclusion and reducing the burden on future taxpayers. It also introduces a level of fiscal innovation that addresses modern economic realities.
- While the concept is still theoretical, BitBonds represent a compelling intersection of technology and public policy. They invite us to rethink how we fund essential social programs in the 21st century.
