Listen carefully...
The system you trust pays you to be obedient, rewrites the rules after you’ve already sold your time, and hides the damage behind “inflation" "policy" and the sacred doctrine of fiat. Every central bank, every state, every organized religion has taken the responsibility that belongs to you and turned it into a lease they collect rent on... they dilute your labor into endless debt, they let a committee decide whether the value of your work stays intact, and they call it “stability” while the ground underneath you shifts.
Bitcoin stops the lie. It records every hash, every sat, every settlement in code that no committee can edit, no government can bail out, no narrative can rewrite.
This is why self-custody matters.
Holding your own keys isn’t a hobby or a protest, it’s the only way to stop strangers from re‑pricing your life after the fact. Self‑custody forces power to justify itself instead of hiding behind discretionary levers; it aligns your incentives with the immutable physics of scarcity rather than the adjustable fiction of fiat. If you want a world where your effort isn’t silently siphoned and your future isn’t a variable anyone can tweak, take control now, lock your value in an immutable ledger, and stop giving permission for the system to rewrite the accounting of your existence.
This isn’t a suggestion; it’s a requirement for any genuine claim to freedom.
