Ox season
Reading the news I'm starting to think we're not in a bull or bear or crab season anymore but fully entered an ox season, and it's not about the price it's about how some are trying to turn bitcoin from the thing we all knew into their ox cart to the political spotlight.
Why the ox?
Simple, we had a cyber bull at the Miami conference, a cyber bull ..that had no balls. And it wasn't because a cyber bull by default has no balls but because it has been neutered by the company that ordered it.

Tradestation neutered the creature to ensure it wasn’t seen as promoting a male-focused financial industry. “Prosperity and wealth shouldn’t have any gender,” says Marco Carrucciu, a vice president at the online brokerage.
But the madness doesn't stop here, if you think this is a woke movement stunt then wait for the opposite side to do its own agenda, here comes

Peter Thiel: Bitcoin will 'never be' controlled by the government, unlike 'woke companies'
Seriously, what has bitcoin to do with companies, with politics, or with you, you f** piece of. I was shocked when people started praising this guy, you know what companies this guy runs?
Palantir for god's sake, Palantir, it couldn't have been worse if we would have been the chief of NSA.
And it's not just bitcoin, it's the users who have become the cart behind the ox, used to pump up scores of politicians that have no attractive program whatsoever. If you want to get some votes, go to Twitter and start claiming you're going to make bitcoin legal tender. But of course, being a politician means you're also pretty close to being a PoS, just how this thing proves:

I'm not going to even go through the history of the individual called Bukele, when a person starts lying on that level not even discovering he is actually Satoshi will manage to save him in my opinion.
Now for the discussion at hand, did you start feeling that the community and the name of bitcoin has started to be used for things that are not related to crypto anymore? That from the puny stock market manipulations a few years ago when companies were rebranding themselves with blockchain names we're in times ten times worse?
I'm getting the feeling there is a split where there is bitcoin the coin, the tool we need for our own finance and own security, and the sudden rise of "influencers" nobody wanted or had a need for who suddenly are having the guts to try to dictate things, to impose views who are one step away of calling themselves leaders of a movement they have nothing to do when looking at the core belief.
Are we starting to pay way too much importance to persons when one of the main advantages of Bitcoin was that it had no leader? Are we giving too much credit to every vote starved politician who will say anything for another mandate? To any investor that brags about millions invested in bitcoins when in fact he is not putting a dime of his own but only other's people money?
