The original purpose of Bitcoin was simple: peer-to-peer transactions and separation of money from the state. Sixteen years in, the Bitcoiners who believed in that purpose the most either joined early or stacked hard under that narrative.

These are now the biggest capital allocators in the ecosystem—and they remain committed to a Bitcoin-only future. Their top priority isn’t tokenization or bridging to legacy systems. It’s growing peer-to-peer infrastructure, the medium of exchange use case, and keeping Bitcoin on Bitcoin rails.

You can see this clearly on platforms like NOSTR, where the most evangelical Bitcoin users are building and coordinating. Jack's top post yesterday? P2P growth. Not stablecoins. Not tokenization.

Trying to push Bitcoin Maxis outside a Bitcoin-only ecosystem misses the point entirely. They joined because they wanted to get off traditional rails. They already spend with Bitcoin-only companies. They already get loans in USD or Tether from Strike, LEDN, or Unchained. They even built their own open-source comms infrastructure.

Stablecoins are fine. Banks will adopt them. And yes, Washington's Bitcoin bills are increasingly tied to stablecoin growth. But let’s be honest: Bitcoiners don’t need them. They’ve opted out—and trying to market those products to them is like selling pork at a vegan festival.

If you're working on tokenization or stablecoin products, more power to you—but pitch them to a different customer base. Because Bitcoiners, the people sitting on the most capital, are building their own future—and it’s Bitcoin-only by design.
