1930s: Great Depression → FDR confiscates gold
1970s: Nixon abandons the gold standard → Inflation skyrockets
2008s: Housing crisis → “Quantitative Easing” (money printing)
2020s: Pandemic → 40% of ALL U.S. dollars printed in just 2 years
Pattern identified?
Crisis → State expands power → You pay the price
#Bitcoin was born in 2009.
In the genesis block:
“Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks”
Satoshi didn’t create digital money.
He created an exit from a broken system that:
• Socializes losses
• Privatizes gains
• Steals through inflation
• Bails out banks with your money
16 years later:
Fiat system: More broken than ever
Bitcoin: 99.98% uptime, zero bailouts needed
So, which experiment really failed?
