On September 25, 2019, Ross Ulbricht wrote his essay "Bitcoin = Freedom" from behind the walls of a correctional facility in Tucson, Arizona.
In his essay, Ross argues that Bitcoin is more than just money; it is a tool for freedom and a response to the problems of centralized authority.
He discusses how Bitcoin's value came from the belief of its early adopters, and how its decentralized nature allows for peer-to-peer transactions without the need for banks or governments.
