The rise of Bitcoin is no longer a story of just technology, we are seeing a measure of declining trust in centralized systems!
I'm sorry mate, I am not seen any measure of declining trust in centralised system, in fact those who are in control of this Centralised power are the ones buying Bitcoin massively, they are also the ones that brings up ETFs, if there is a way to turn Bitcoin into a centralised asset they will do it.
There is another problem too, the real reasons why many people are into Bitcoin right now is because their leaders are supporting Bitcoin, they choose to listen, not to Bitcoin itself but to their own leader before trusting Bitcoin, just imagine that, so if one day their leader says they should abandon Bitcoin they won't hesitate.
It is. 2026 but people are still keeping their Bitcoins on a centralised platform, they leave it there not because they can't afford a non-custodial bitcoin wallet but they like the idea of a Centralised platform holding their Bitcoin for them.
