Within the fiat system. So an illusion of profit. Arguably it's not real until it's traded for #Bitcoin.

I admire your enthusiasm and I hate fiat too but their dollars of profit are accepted at >10,000x more marketplaces than Bitcoin.
Obviously the fiat system encompasses >99% of earth. So yes, their excess cash flow is indeed real profit.
All good. Different monetary systems. I don't own any fiat. I spend sats for daily living. I'm on the Bitcoin Standard. I'd highly recommend nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe book. When you do make it out of the fiat system that's when it was clearer for me. I like to replace the word $Dollar with something like "Magic Unicorn Shit" or "War Bucks". Makes the thought experiment of comparing unchanging decentralized #Bitcoin with infinite centrally controlled "dollars" easier and less loaded. Theyre all the same. Make believe.
