Jeff Booth doesn’t know what the world will look like in 2036, and he says that is not the real question for $BTC.

The Bitcoin author and investor argues that a Bitcoin-buoyed system can exist for people right now if they move their time and energy to it. In his view, the change starts with personal agency, not with waiting for a future date.

Booth separates holders into quick traders, store-of-value believers, and those who see Bitcoin as a protocol. He warns that a store-of-value-only view can trap bitcoin inside broken systems and centralize ownership, and that a debt-based system built on top of bitcoin could keep producing custodian blowups like Celsius and BlockFi.

He also pushes back on fear-driven debates, saying Bitcoin stays secure when enough hypervigilant people focus on the issues and build with care. That is why he does not paint a Bitcoin-fueled utopia by 2036; he says the outcome depends on how many people realize they have agency to change the world.

What it means for you: if you treat $BTC only as a trade or a store of value, you could miss the protocol-level shift Booth describes. If you use it as money in circular economies and focus on providing value, his argument may change how you spend your time and energy.

The takeaway: Booth’s 2036 question is less about a date and more about whether enough people claim agency.
