hope is what gets the people going ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But yea, it's true. Buying bitcoin never was about getting rich, it always was to have control. From that control comes its value. Not its price in dollars though.
I see it as a purge. The insects blinded by the short term yield and convinience of CBDCs/stablecoins, who never were in it for control, will leave bitcoin.
But we know. People on-chain know. Governments know.
