I’ve always hold a strong conviction that where there’s a will, there’s always a ‘we’ - in this case, the Bitcoin community and advocates for decentralization.

Stopping the approval of a Bitcoin ETF doesn’t equate to altering the decentralized and open nature of the Bitcoin protocol. Rather, it’s about safeguarding the integrity and fundamental values of the protocol.

The Bitcoin community, encompassing builders, users, and advocates, have played a crucial role in shaping the narrative and guiding the direction of Bitcoin’s development and adoption. We strive to maintain Bitcoin’s core properties while also promoting responsible and informed engagement with the technology.

By remaining self-sovereign and encouraging others to do the same, we contribute to a future where Bitcoin continues to thrive as a decentralized and empowering financial tool, aligned with the vision of its early proponents.

The efforts are not about restricting the protocol, but about ensuring that its use and evolution align with the principles of autonomy, privacy, and decentralization that make Bitcoin uniquely valuable.

WE, as a community of users, have the power to influence the broader adoption and perception of Bitcoin.
