Apple co\u2011founder Steve Wozniak said this in a recent interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/sg.news.yahoo.com\/steve-wozniak-accepting-crypto-pitches-151515462.html\">Yahoo Finance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cLook at the U.S. dollar; the government can print new banknotes and borrow\u2014it&#8217;s as if it will never be fixed. Bitcoin is mathematics, mathematical purity. A different Bitcoin can never be created,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Wozniak compared the U.S. monetary system to the blockchain of the first cryptocurrency. He called fiat &#8216;artificial&#8217; and noted that he enjoys &#8216;the science, mathematics, logic and computer code&#8217; embedded in Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>The Apple co-founder also noted the decentralized nature of digital gold, which allows it to maintain a level of predictability that is hard to achieve with the U.S. dollar. In his view, regulators can create new paper notes at whim, and inflation is hard to forecast.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t even know who created Bitcoin. Its network isn\u2019t controlled by any company; it is simply mathematically pure, and I have always believed that nature is above man,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>At the same time, the Apple co-founder dismissed the anonymous features that some cryptocurrencies offer as unnecessary. He said he sees no need for private payments.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in July, Apple co-founder <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/steve-wozniak-calls-bitcoin-a-mathematical-marvel\">called Bitcoin a mathematical wonder<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Follow ForkLog&#8217;s Bitcoin news on our <a href=\"\/\/telegram.me\/forklog\" target=\"\u201c_blank\u201d\" rel=\"\u201cnofollow\u201d noopener\">Telegram<\/a> \u2014 cryptocurrency news, prices and analysis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin\u2019s mathematics and logic make it copy-proof, and therefore it outperforms the U.S. dollar, said Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":52042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"select":"1","news_style_id":"1","cryptorium_level":"","_short_excerpt_text":"","creation_source":"","_metatest_mainpost_news_update":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[18,818],"class_list":["post-52041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-analysis","tag-bitcoin","tag-steve-wozniak"],"aioseo_notices":[],"amp_enabled":true,"views":"66","promo_type":"1","layout_type":"1","short_excerpt":"","is_update":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52041"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52041\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52043,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52041\/revisions\/52043"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52042"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
