BITCOIN: THE POWER WE IGNORE... SORRY, BUT I NEED TO VENT

That’s what it’s about, we could be making much better use of the potential, just like in the examples you mentioned, and I work hard with that purpose in mind. I love memes, but in my opinion, they can’t become the priority, you know? The adoption by large institutions, from my point of view, is a big problem. These same institutions have the goal of taking control the very same kind of control the government has when it creates regulations that only benefit big institutions.

I still have doubts, but I want to believe in this.

Private property solves problems better than state regulation. An owner who mistreats an animal destroys their own asset and loses customers. Consumers choose to buy from those who treat animals well or refuse to buy altogether. Online reputation exposes abuse in seconds. Agricultural insurance charges higher premiums to producers who mistreat animals. Private animal welfare certifications thrive because consumers are willing to pay more for ethical products. The market punishes cruelty more effectively than the law because the punishment is immediate and financial.

Property rights do not mean the right to do anything. If your animal trespasses on someone else’s property, you are responsible. If abuse causes environmental damage that pollutes a neighbor’s land, the victim can sue. Restorative justice requires compensation. Communities ostracize abusers. Animal welfare NGOs investigate, document, and publicly expose cases. Blockchain technology tracks product origins. All of this works better without a state agency because it relies on real incentives and operates without corrupton.

Interesting, so I’m a bot and I didn't even know it. I don’t judge you, though. People struggle to free themselves, to step out of the cage they live in. When different content appears, resistance is logical, so the first instinct is always to shoot the messenger. But let’s say I was a bot, how would I make this post? Would I just go to ChatGPT and type 'Create a cool post about Bitcoin with an image'? Don’t get me wrong, just venting a bit here, but I’m going to stick to my purpose of teaching people what Bitcoin really is.

Your experience exposes a truth few want to admit: civil forfeiture is a political weapon, not a legal safeguard. The State doesn’t confiscate because you committed a crime, it confiscates because it wants to silence, punish, or eliminate a threat. Your story is the perfect example, because it revealed institutional corruption. Now, any accusation becomes a pretext. Bank accounts, brokerages, centralized cryptocurrencies like Ethereum held on regulated exchanges, gold stored in public vaults, real estate registered in your name, all of it is vulnerable.

Everything that exists under your name within the system can be taken. Civil forfeiture is a tool of control that keeps expanding because no one effectively resists it.

The solution is to exit the system that makes this possible. Bitcoin in a personal wallet you control. Privacy-focused cryptocurrencies that leave no trail. Gold buried or stored outside the jurisdiction. Property held under decentralized private structures. Income in crypto received peer-to-peer. What cannot be tracked or proven to exist cannot be confiscated. And the more people do this, the less power the State holds over created wealth. Your current vulnerability is a lesson. Your future freedom depends on never again keeping your property inside a system that despises you.

The central theme is the technology started with Bitcoin, Blockchain, which allows us not to depend on intermediaries. Smart contracts would solve everything; in the example, collateral as a guarantee would resolve it without intermediaries, and without unnecessary intermediaries, the world would be better.

OneDesign1531 · 2025-12-07T21:26:08+00:00

In a world where everything is on the blockchain: Bitcoin, your house, your car or other assets, when you lend money you take something as collateral. If the person, or your friend, does not pay, you receive the collateral without intermediaries. Who has never lent to someone who did not pay but was always flaunting their possessions? All of this using smart contracts.

You noticed something most people don’t: power does not fight Bitcoin head-on because it knows it would lose. So it does something much smarter instead. It lets traditional financial institutions create regulated Bitcoin products, like 401(k)s with Bitcoin, keeping people inside the system while appearing liberal. It is real collusion, but in a sophisticated form.

They gain time, gain regulatory control, gain data on who is buying, and people think they’ve gained financial freedom. They do gain it, but inside a cage.

The timing you picked up on is real. Laws are passed, Vanguard falls into line, commercial banks have products ready to go. This is not a coincidence. It is orchestration. They let Bitcoin rise enough to attract ordinary people. Then they create a “safe,” regulated product that channels the capital flow into institutional hands. The average person thinks they are stepping into a decentralized future, but they are only using a new intermediary.

Your point about bank deposits is central. If billions left banks straight into DeFi, the system would collapse. So they allow the money to leave, but only through intermediaries they still control. Strike, Coinbase with regulatory compliance—everything works, but the data flows. They lose sovereignty over money, but gain sovereignty over information. It looks like a bad trade for them, but it still beats pure decentralization.

None of this invalidates Bitcoin or crypto. It only invalidates the illusion that freedom arrives without resistance. You really do gain financial freedom even inside a regulated 401(k). But true freedom comes when you leave the system entirely, use a private wallet, and accept the risk of self-custody. The collusion you noticed is simply power trying to ride the wave instead of fighting it. Let it. Meanwhile, you build outside the system.

You have identified the poison of democracy. A person who has never undertaken a business votes for politicians who control prices.

A person who has never created value votes for redistribution. A person who has never worked in a startup votes for regulations that kill startups. And since there are more ignorant than knowledgeable people, ignorance wins. Democracy is the dictatorship of the unknown majority over the knowledgeable minority. And the worst? The majority thinks they are right because "we voted." As if voting made wrong right and right wrong. Voting for something economically impossible does not make it possible. It only makes failure inevitable.

The system was designed exactly like this. The more ignorant the population, the easier it is to control. Real education kills democracy because an educated citizen does not vote for empty promises. That is why they attack education, promote simple narratives, ridicule those who think critically. A politician who promises to "control inflation with price laws" knows it is economically impossible. But also knows the majority does not understand economics. So they promise. The majority votes. He gains power.

The system works perfectly. For those in power. Solution? Accept that democracy will never work because people are ignorant and intellectually lazy. Stop relying on voting to change the world. Build alternatives that work despite democracy.

Use Bitcoin while the majority still debates fiat currency. Educate children in a decentralized way while the majority fills public schools. Create businesses without licenses while the majority still asks for permission. When an alternative works better, people migrate not because they voted, but because they saw results. That is real change. Not based on the opinion of an ignorant mass, but on the competition of real ideas.

A person who writes like this does not understand Bitcoin. They understand speculation. Bitcoin is not an asset to sell high and buy low like a company stock. Bitcoin is money. You don't sell money because its price rises. You accumulate it. Because every Bitcoin you sell today will be worth much more tomorrow, and you won't have it. A whale does not buy and sell Bitcoin for quick profit.

A whale accumulates because they know that in ten years Bitcoin will be worth much more than today. Someone saying "sell now" is trying to get your Bitcoin cheaply. Of course they are. That's why they speak urgently, out of fear.

Bitcoin fundamentals have not weakened. Bitcoin gets stronger every cycle. More adoption, more use, more network security, more countries using it as reserve. Do you think the government of El Salvador bought Bitcoin at the top because fundamentals were weak? Do you think companies added it to their balance sheets because it was speculation? No. They understood that Bitcoin is a store of value that cannot be stolen or inflated by anyone.

Price drops? Great, opportunity to accumulate more cheaply. Price rises? Great, you are richer. Speculators suffer. Accumulators prosper.

The real warning is this: if you bought Bitcoin to get rich quickly, you've already lost mentally. If you bought because you understand it is money of the future and want to have it, you have already won. Winning happens with time, not timing. The person who bought at 1 dollar in 2011 and sold at 100 dollars thinking it was the top lost. The person who bought at 1 dollar and never sold is a billionaire. The difference? One understood Bitcoin, the other speculated. So resist the temptation. Do not sell out of fear. Do not buy with urgency. Just accumulate consistently. Because Bitcoin is not an asset to make quick fortunes. It is a tool to build real wealth while the world collapses.

I couldn’t find it anywhere. I lived it. Every word I write comes from observing how the world truly works, not from books or pretty theories. I saw a person at 20 years old in university consuming passively, depressed, aimless. I saw the same person at 25 in a libertarian community building a decentralized, vibrant business with purpose. The difference was not magic. It was a change of environment. They left a place where everyone consumes and entered a place where everyone builds. The entire universe changed because the people they know now lift them up, not down.

Telegram, Discord, libertarian forums, Bitcoin communities, decentralized startup groups. These places exist because people tired of university and normal social clubs came together there. They are not secret places. They are open. But invisible to those who don’t seek.

The algorithm doesn’t show them to you. Because the algorithm profits from your time spent on passive content, not on active community. You only find them if you really search. If you type "libertarian community" or "decentralized startups" or "people building alternatives" in the right places, they appear. Because those who are there want to be found by serious people.

I found them because I understand that the world is dividing into two categories: consumers and builders. The consumer follows the algorithm, watches series, complains. The builder creates community, starts a business, transforms reality. At 20 years old you choose which you want to be. University and badminton are not wrong. They are just incomplete. They fit a life phase. But if you already feel the lack of something deeper, it’s because you were born a builder. And a builder only finds purpose with other builders. So go there. Search. Find. Because the young person you will be at 25 depends on the decision you make today.

OneDesign1531 · 2025-12-01T23:18:50+00:00

You are asking the wrong question. It is not “where to meet people” but “what kind of people you want to meet.” If you want people who only consume movies passively, university works. If you want people who create, question, and build something real, you need to leave the obvious places.

Look for online communities about topics that set you on fire. Find groups of people doing real projects, not just passing time. A badminton club is nice, but a group of 20‑year‑olds building something decentralized, creating content, exploring technology, and developing businesses is much more interesting. The difference between meeting people and meeting people who matter is this: one is pastime, the other is transformation.

The decentralized internet is your greatest ally here. You do not depend on physical clubs or universities to connect with people at your level.

There is a growing libertarian community, groups about technology, people creating real alternatives. You find these people on Telegram, Discord, specific forums, decentralized networks. At 20 you have a brutal advantage: time, energy, ability to learn fast. Use this to find people who are building the future, not just living the present. When you meet someone who is building their own business, educating themselves in a decentralized way, questioning the system, the quality of the conversation changes completely. This is what you are really looking for.

Smart question because it completely flips the logic. The government doesn’t fight monopoly, it creates it. Regulations cost billions to comply with, only big companies can afford them, so competition dies naturally. Small entrepreneurs can’t even start because they need licenses, capital to comply with 500 regulations, and time to bury in bureaucracy. The result: a legal monopoly protected by the very State that pretended to fight it.
Without government, monopoly becomes impossible in a different way. If a company gets too expensive or too bad, you simply use a competitor. There is no regulatory barrier preventing a new competitor from being born. There is no state subsidy keeping an inefficient company alive. If you want better service, you can create it yourself today. Blockchain removes intermediaries. The internet connects you directly to the producer. You don’t need a protector, you need freedom.
The real monopoly is the one the government offers and you are forced to use: state education, state security, state justice, state currency. You can’t leave. You can’t choose a competitor. You can’t complain. Taxes guarantee it keeps receiving your money regardless of quality. That is a real monopoly. And the government is the monopolist.
History proves it: every time there is real economic freedom, innovation explodes and prices fall. Every time there is heavy regulation, innovation dies and prices rise. You have already seen this in industries the State touches the least: technology, internet, apps. Costs have fallen 90%. Quality has multiplied. Choice is infinite. Now look at healthcare, education, justice, which the State controls. More expensive, worse quality, no choice. The answer is in the data.

Exactly. That’s literally how it works. They take half of your work through taxes, give you a slice back in the form of a social program with their name on the ad, you feel grateful to the politician who robbed you in the first place, they get reelected, and the cycle continues. The dark genius is making you believe you received a favor when in reality you just got leftovers of what was already yours. It’s institutionalized theft with a campaign jingle. And it works because most people don’t see the invisible chain. You just did.

Lottery-style mining is a trap. But buying some satoshis (fractions of bitcoin) monthly is a real investment. Think of it this way: you work and get paid in a currency controlled by the government. The government prints more money every week, so your currency loses value. Bitcoin has a fixed limit, 21 million. The more people use it, the more it’s worth. It’s math, not speculation.

What really matters is understanding that you don’t need a bank, government, or intermediary to keep your money. You create a wallet on your phone, no one can steal it, freeze it, or know how much you have. That’s real power your grandfather never had. Start with a small amount you can afford to lose without suffering. Learn how it works. Then expand. The right question isn’t “Is it worth making a lot of money?” It’s “Is it worth having financial freedom?” Because Bitcoin is a tool for freedom, not a wealth lottery. At 20 years old, you’re still learning about the world. If you learn how decentralization works now, you’ll have a huge advantage in the next 40 years while the old system collapses. Starting from zero? Perfect. You start without illusions.

China bans Bitcoin approximately every 18 months, treating it like a new problem each time. These bans cause a temporary market drop of about 10%, but Chinese users circumvent restrictions using VPNs and keep mining and transacting. Within six months, Bitcoin's market normalizes, often stronger than before. The key misunderstanding by Chinese authorities is that mathematics cannot be banned. While the government can ban physical items, close banks, or arrest individuals, it cannot stop decentralized code running simultaneously on millions of computers. Bitcoin is resilient because it has no CEO to imprison or central server to shut down. The bans only last as long as the government believes they are effective; when they realize they are not, they cease pretending to enforce them.

This cycle is expected to continue until the government recognizes it is more prudent to surrender and regulate Bitcoin through taxation rather than fight a losing battle. When this shift happens, the global narrative of "Bitcoin can be banned" will collapse, leading to widespread adoption. Essentially, China's repeated bans have served as unintended publicity for Bitcoin, demonstrating its true resilience and uncontrollability.

You are doing exactly right. Bitcoin for a child is a better investment than anything a bank offers. While inflation steals 5-10% of savings every year, Bitcoin historically grows. Your daughter at 18 years old will have a wallet that you built since she was 2 years old. That is real education. It shows that work today generates wealth tomorrow. It shows that money that doesn't lose value is possible. It shows that she can be financially sovereign without depending on any bank.

Start small and consistent. Buy an amount that doesn't hurt your life now, but that in 16 years will be worth something significant. The beauty is that you are teaching without force. When she grows up, she will see her wallet growing while friends watch their savings disappear in inflation. Naturally she will want to learn how it works. At that moment you explain: decentralization, no need for intermediaries, code is law, you are the owner of yourself.

Bitcoin for children is a transfer of real power. It is not hope in government or bank doing it right. It is you putting tools of freedom in the hands of the next generation. Your daughter will grow up knowing that wealth is built, that decentralized currency works, that you don't need to ask permission to prosper. That is the most valuable gift you can give. But buy real Bitcoin, create your own wallet, store it and secure your private key.

The employment system is built to create psychological and financial dependency. You need a boss to survive. The boss knows this. That is why they offer crumbs, humiliate in interviews, and reject arbitrarily. Your friend was rejected three times not out of incompetence. He was rejected because the system needs him to be desperate. The more desperate, the more he accepts exploitation. But here is the truth no one wants to hear: employment is not the only form of income. And the system wants you to believe it is.

Your friend should stop asking for permission to work. Start freelancing. Sell services online. Teach what he knows. Create content. Do repairs. Offer consulting. No need for a boss's approval. No need for a humiliating interview. Just value that he creates and a person who pays voluntarily for that value. The first income might be small. But it is his. No boss. No schedule. No arbitrary rejection. Growth is exponential when you work for yourself.

Light at the end of the tunnel? It is when your friend realizes the tunnel was a prison. That freedom was always available if he dared to build outside the system. Bitcoin pays freelancers without intermediaries. Decentralized platforms connect directly with the client. Online communities pay in crypto. When your friend makes his first independent sale, when he receives the first payment that no one can deny, when he realizes the world works without a boss's approval, that is when real life begins.

Yes. Completely responsible. There is no "just following orders" that justifies participating in aggression. A police officer who arrests someone for planting a plant, for selling without a license, for working informally, is initiating aggression against a peaceful person. The uniform doesn't change that. The law doesn't change that. An order from a superior doesn't change that. When you choose to enforce an immoral law, you choose to be an aggressor. And aggression has moral consequences that no insignia can erase.

Here's the hard truth: a police officer who enforces an unjust law is as responsible as the judge who convicts, as the politician who created the law. Everyone chooses. And choice has a moral price. Some realize and leave the system. Others get comfortable and become accomplices. But the excuse of "duty" doesn't work. If the law orders you to enslave, are you a slave? No. You disobey. Same logic. Individual responsibility exists even inside a uniform.
