“Bitcoin is a lifeboat.”

For a long time, I thought this meant it preserves economic value—a safe haven in stormy seas.

But now I see a deeper meaning: Bitcoin’s inelastic supply.

When the Titanic was sinking, no amount of money, influence, or desperation could summon an extra lifeboat.

Bitcoin is the same. The supply is fixed. No government, billionaire, or central bank can print more.

You either have a seat—or you don’t.
