The real conversation should be between sovereignty and servitude. Centralized coins aren’t just bad investments. They are financial weapons used by people that enjoy controlling you. Look at the trends, look at the mechanisms, look at the intentions behind these projects.

They argue, "altcoins can bring gains." You can win a lot of money gambling, too, until the house decides otherwise. The pattern is usually the same: hyped debut, early insider sell-off, community delusions, finally collapse. When will it happen? Not if, but when. Because a centralized system is not designed for you. It is designed to make use of you. The moment a single entity can manipulate supply, halt transactions, or “comply with regulations,” you’re not in crypto, you’re in corporate finance 2.0.

PoS vs. PoW is the illusion of choice. From Day 1 PoS hands the keys to the richest. PoW requires actual work, actual energy, actual expenses, not digital permission slips generated from nowhere. Stakers rule PoS and you’re expecting fairness? Each PoS network becomes a shadow monarchy. Though not flawless, Bitcoin at least does not demand you to bow.

You have already lost the game if you want a regulator like SEC to save you from a decentralized financial system. Why do individuals continue to be victims of centralized lies? Security, convenience, speed, empty promises, repeated in cycles, and yet, here we are once more. The issue isn’t just that these projects exist but rather it’s that people still believe in them.

i am surprised with the topic and more informed by your post.
but does it mean that BTC is the only reliable crypto due to its decentralised system/setting?
This is disturbing for me because i invested in multiple crypto and looking forward to the bull season.
Perhaps i might need to sell off my altcoin and buy just BTC? or what do you think?
