“The endgame of all these currencies is hyperinflation, the Dollar, the Euro, the Yen… the Yuan, the Ruble, all of them; but I think when one of those currencies that’s run by more of a developed nation…that’s when everyone is forced to adopt bitcoin because it’s the only thing that works.”

Everyone has their own Bitcoin journey. However, each journey takes a very similar route: cynical awareness, dabbling, investing, rabbit hole, awareness, getting burnt, realisation, all in, obsession. Gradually, then suddenly. The process explains the rationale behind hodling, but also, why adoption takes time. Bitcoin requires effort before the payoff can begin. Proof of work.
Understanding Bitcoin also requires a fundamental change of perspective. Society long ago jettisoned the logic of adhering to a low-time preference; the modern consumerist fiat system is predicated on living for the now. The intellectual and moral hollowness of this approach is manifest in the multitude of major issues confronting our society today.
We need a realignment with a more mature ideology best imagined by the famous Greek proverb ‘Society grows when men plant trees that they know they will never sit under’. This realignment may result more from necessity rather than an awakening: the seeds of hyperinflation have been sown into the economic fabric of most nations, and we’re starting to see the edifice crumble. Those who adopt Bitcoin first will be best placed to weather the coming storms.
There is a flip side risk for those who hold Bitcoin. History is littered with examples of the state confiscating private wealth. This risk is obviously most acute when the state’s coffers have run dry. The fact is that global debt is now at an all-time high; further, deficits keep increasing. Now, with rising interest rates, debt levels are becoming unmanageable. A reckoning is coming. Prepare accordingly.
