About Bitrawr

Bitcoin is everywhere. But how long did it take you to grasp sound money, Austrian economics, blockchain technology, and the failures of central banking?

Cryptography, mathematics, Austrian economics, and digital scarcity are the foundations of Bitcoin and we're guessing it took a good amount of time to explore each topic in depth.

Even for those who can conceptually understand Bitcoin, the journey to buying, transferring and storing that first Bitcoin is unfriendly to beginners.

New users exposed to Bitcoin for the first time are overwhelmed by the difficulties of navigating the various wallets, exchanges, and merchants in the space. We call this the information gap.

We built Bitrawr to close this information gap surrounding Bitcoin by visualizing just how easy it is to use Bitcoin to both transact and store value, mapping the landscape for both for early adopters and new users alike.
