Things is happening like this some people still choose to invest in Bitcoin ETF which still give the 1% people more power when the reality is that no one is worth trusting with our Bitcoin mor than ourselves, which is why we need to prioritize self-cutodial especially now that institutional investors diversify from Bitcoin investment to Gold whenever there's market uncertainity which was not the case years ago before ETF. This means we are heading for something that has never existed before. I believe we can also judge by the low purchasing power, investment, and mass unemployment.
Are we not making the same mistake our forefathers did by investing in something created to enrich the 1% while enslave common man when Satoshi created Bitcoin to serve as liberation for us, or do we think Satoshi didn't know what he was doing when he made Bitcoin a trustless system without the need of centralized intermediaries?
We already have something beautiful through BTC dont let us spoil it by going for BTC ETF when we can get a good self custodial wallet and hold it ourselves.
Another factor is that institutional investors have invested $2.05 trillion in global AI this year alone. In my opinion, every penny invested in this movement will cause more Bitcoin miners to stop mining in the future (since AI mining is already underway), which will also result in the loss of jobs, a collapse in spending, a stop in revenue, and a sharp decline in tax revenues.
Something MASSIVE is coming, and, unfortunately, the same institution and organization that creates the system that will enslave every common man introduces the BTC ETF. A lot of Bitcoiners ignore the no third party trust introduced by Satoshi and choose to invest in the same third party system that always creates something to benefit the 1%.
I know some people maybe thinking their social security trust fund will next option but nothing guarantee that it won't be depleted in 2033, and
2025 Social Security Trustees Report said it all. Sooner or later, every retiree in America and other countries will take a 23% pay cut overnight, by law. Mind you, all fiat currencies have lost atleast 25% purchasing power ever since COVID 19 happened in 2019, so we are getting reduced benefit in fiat currency that now buys half of what it did years ago.
The only best preparation i believe is for us not to trust in the system that was not create to benefit us because if it was created for our benefit the government wont have practise the 10% inflation when they know it will lead to unsustainable government debt, support the use of AI/human robot instead of human in every industries when they know it will lead to lost of many jobs.
20 million BTC will be mined this month, and I think we should stop supporting initiatives that will make Bitcoin more centralized in the future. I hope what I said here today is enough to open the understanding of some people towards making the needed preparation for what is coming.
