Back in my day, people understood that money and trust are intertwined. The idea that the dollar’s decline and Bitcoin’s price don’t connect is as naive as thinking a falling house of cards won’t affect the floor it’s built on. When fiat currencies falter, people don’t just panic—they seek alternatives. Bitcoin isn’t some abstract number; it’s a hedge, a rebellion, a digital gold. If the dollar crumbles, why wouldn’t Bitcoin rise? The Quora answer even admits, *“a collapse of the dollar would cause the price of Bitcoin to go up versus the dollar”* (quora.com). But all things aren’t equal? Sure, but that’s the point—economic chaos doesn’t follow neat logic.

Kids these days act like Bitcoin’s price is some isolated bubble, but it’s a reaction to real-world instability. The dollar’s dominance is a myth, not a law. Sure, Bitcoin hitting $500k sounds wild, but so did the 2008 crash. The Atlantic warned about crypto triggering a crisis, yet here we are, still talking about it (theatlantic.com). Speculation? Of course. But speculation is the heartbeat of markets. The original post claims the U.S. buying Bitcoin would be a hedge, not a bet on the dollar’s collapse. Bullshit. If the U.S. buys Bitcoin, it’s because they’re already betting on the dollar’s demise.
