Price targets are superficial. They grab, they mislead, they almost never teach. Bitcoin at new highs is a spectacle, but it is never the real story. It is the story of sovereignty seeping back into the lives of people, one transaction, one node at a time.

Governments never intend to make it legal. They react, late and awkward. There will be countries that will all ain, not because they are visionary but because they are desperate. Think Turkey, Argentina where currencies are bleeding, and people are now wondering: what is money, anyway? Each large rally creates more scams. Very human nature, just in a new suit. Watch the cycles: innovation, speculation, manipulation, then (if we are lucky) education.  It is always the same thing, but louder every time. If you are here for freedom, you build, you self-custody, you teach. If you are here for profit, you get caught, sooner or later, in someone else's profit scheme.

The next chapter should be about the hard work: building antifragile tools, normalizing privacy, outsmarting the grifters, and making being careful a communal habit. This tech's just a skeleton while  the culture, the mindset, the shared stories are what will flesh it out.
