One day people will look back and realize that what seemed โcrazyโ was actually inevitable. Every time humanity encounters a truth that challenges the foundation of an existing system, itโs met with confusion, denial, and ridicule before acceptance.
#Bitcoin emerged as new money reflecting the distortions created by an economic system built on exponential debt and inflation.
These early years will be remembered as a time when a few people saw through the noise only because they were willing to question the assumptions everyone else took for granted.
The irony is that what future generations will call โthe beginningโ was (well for me at least) a time of disbelief, volatility, and hope. And those who built through that uncertainty werenโt chasing price; they were building the foundation for a more truthful, decentralized future.
For some reason I love post-apocalyptic movies and series.
Maybe it's the longing for a new beginning, maybe I like to see how authentic people behave, without the civilization, I like when greatness and nobility are shown.
But, I think they are a good lesson for today's isolationists - literally always in these small, isolated communities there is a burning problem of resources, because no one has everything.
And then there is the need for war or trade.
If they choose trade, they will develop and multiply, creating ever larger and more peaceful communities, rules and laws, security and prosperity, and the exchange of ideas and inventions.
If they choose war, someone will prevail, be rich, and the rest will be miserable and dream of revolution. And someone stronger will always appear, and so on in a circle, while the people are getting worse and worse - because the economy is based on plunder, not creation.
These are archetypes of our history and nature, it's not made up. ๐
