Bitcoin was born as freedom money. Decentralised, borderless, and immune to state control. But is that ideal being flipped on its head?
Are a growing number of institutional players backed by governments inflating Bitcoin’s value not as a currency of the people but as a Strategic Reserve Asset to prop up the very system it was built to escape?
Is the goal to create artificial demand for U.S. dollars and treasuries through stablecoins backed by U.S. debt? Stablecoins are lifelines for many, but what is the real cost?
Will certain stablecoins become some of the largest holders of U.S. treasuries, indirectly funding U.S. policy while serving as the gateway to Bitcoin? By linking Bitcoin to stablecoins and those stablecoins to U.S. treasuries...has a pipeline been created to inflate Bitcoin, attract capital, prop up dollar demand, and sell more debt?
Is it ironic that the asset created to resist fiat is now being used to save it?
On the day Trump was inaugurated, I published this article. Centralisation is a threat. Are we paying close enough attention?
