Assume incompetence over malice. Assume there are things happening behind the scenes. Assume eventually the truth comes out.<br/><br/>Cope. <br/><br/>At some point you have to stop lying to yourself.<br/><br/>When the most powerful people on earth are connected to something this dark, and the result is sealed documents, redactions, quiet settlements, and zero real accountability, you start to see the pattern.<br/><br/>There’s a system for regular people, and there’s a different system for the elite.<br/><br/>We have seen it with monetary and economic policy. Now we see it is systemic. <br/><br/>This isn’t about left vs. right. It’s not partisan for me. Corruption protects itself. Power protects power. That’s the constant.<br/><br/>And when that realization sets in, you have a choice.<br/><br/>You can scream about it. You can argue online. You can hope the next election fixes it.<br/><br/>Or you can quietly opt out where you can.<br/><br/>For me, that’s Bitcoin.<br/><br/>Not because it’s some utopia or because it fixes evil. But because it doesn’t require me to trust the same institutions that have repeatedly shown they don’t operate by the same rules for everyone.<br/><br/>No special access.<br/>No closed-door monetary policy.<br/>No selective bailouts.<br/><br/>Just open code and rules that apply to everyone.<br/><br/>Maybe that sounds dramatic. But I don’t see it as rebellion. I see it as self-preservation.<br/><br/>When trust erodes, capital moves. It always has.<br/><br/>Some people exit geographically.<br/>Some exit socially.<br/>Some mentally check out.<br/><br/>I’m exiting financially.<br/><br/>You don’t need to agree.
