Crypto as a Store of Value and the Illusion of Government Aid
Crypto, especially Bitcoin, is gaining legitimacy as sovereign nations like El Salvador accept it as legal tender and the IMF recognizes it as money if legalized by a country. Unlike holding US dollars, betting on its stability, Bitcoin poses an alternative investment option. Government aid is seen as a form of debt imposition, leading to the sell-off of national assets and turning countries into debt slaves. True leadership involves being comfortable with being misunderstood and rejected, as expressed in the metaphor of turning one's back on the crowd.
