"Our world is unlikely to change until people realize the power of money creation, and demand to have it restored to public control." I love this quote, I simply love it because most of "the evil" that's running around modern society is rooted in money.
...
First you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the women. Al Pacino gave us another great "word of advice", one that many have made a bible out of it. Some individuals have become so desperate about chasing money, power, and women that they lost the whole purpose of life on the way.
They say there's an endless war between good and evil, black and white, and between intelligent forces and the "less intelligent ones". I'd say the true war we have as a society right now is with ignorance. This one is so abundant it really hurts.
Much of the shit, the bad ones that happen in the world right now is caused by ignorance and not stupidity. There's plenty of stupidity too, but you can't fix that, it must be accepted. You're either born with intelligence or not... That simple.
You can fix ignorance, though, cuz the amount of information we have access to, thanks to technology and the internet is insane. If you don't know how money is being created and see something shady happening with it(like helicopter money or the threat of CBDCs) you can research and once you're clear with that you're good to go with better versions of money(Bitcoin, etc).
If you're not ignorant, then you'll definitely know by now that Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok are "rat poison" when it comes to social media and you can at least limit your usage of "such substances" if not ditch it all. That's when you'll find out about Hive.
The same goes for wars, pandemics, MSM, etc...
Ignorance is such a killer. One could say that we, crypto people are far superior in this regard, but look at what happened with FTX, LUNA, Bitconnect, and many other crypto scams, all of these who have lost important funds during such floods have ended in such positions due to their ignorance.
What caused them the ignorance? Greed did that, but it was ignorance that made all these calamities possible.
We are probably a few months away from this bear market's end and once that happens there will be enough individuals saying that "it's a sucker's rally". These are going to be the actual suckers as the market will leave them behind and rally. There's no change in the patterns the crypto markets follow.
It's us, driven by ignorance, saying near every top or bottom that "this time is different". We said during the bull market peak that this time is different because of the mass adoption that is taking place and it wasn't. Now all sorts of individuals are saying that "this time is different" because of the recession and the bear market will last for years.
No, it's not. Nothing's different as long as we will have four years of halving cycles occuring. That simple. We should not ignore that.
Thanks for your attention,
