I cannot speak for the individuals who are currently selling Bitcoin at $28k, as I do not have access to their personal opinions and mindsets. However, my personal belief is that anyone who is currently selling Bitcoin at such a price may not fully comprehend the immense potential and value that this revolutionary technology has to offer.

With the current economic and political climate of the world, it's clear that traditional fiat systems are becoming increasingly unstable and unsustainable. Bitcoin, on the other hand, offers a decentralized solution that is not controlled by any central authority or government.

In my opinion, those who hold Bitcoin in the long-term are likely to reap the greatest rewards. As the Bitcoin ecosystem continues to grow and mature, the value of the underlying asset is likely to appreciate significantly in the coming years. However, as with any investment, it's important to do your own research and make informed decisions based on your personal risk tolerance and financial goals.

Nailed it! I’d like to elaborate on your second paragraph — our fiat system is unstable and unsustainable because decades of reckless monetary policy and political tensions have eroded nearly all the trust which requires the fiat system to operate.

Watching the system collapse and watching those in charge scramble to hold centralized money together is wild. “World leaders” are really out here trying to create digital gold as an “alternative” to CBDCs, but the auditing dilemma is too obvious to ignore.

Let’s say digital gold becomes the new global reserve currency. People like us are not gonna trust the “trustees” responsible for auditing gold reserves. Also, the “trustees” can simply unpeg their currency from gold, just like the United States did in 1971. Bitcoin is the only fair way forward!

You make some excellent points, my friend. It's clear that the current monetary system is unstable and unsustainable due to a wide range of factors, not least of which is the erosion of trust caused by years of reckless monetary policy and political tensions.

As you noted, the current scramble by world leaders to create a digital gold alternative to CBDCs highlights the significant auditing dilemma that presents. If digital gold does become the new global reserve currency, there's no guarantee that the trustees responsible for auditing the gold reserves will be trustworthy or impartial.

In contrast, Bitcoin's decentralized and trustless nature makes it an appealing solution to such problems. Since it does not rely on any central authority or intermediaries, there is no party to audit or to trust. The code itself serves as the audit and is transparent and open for all to see.

In my opinion, Bitcoin's quality of handling all the issues related to traditional currency on top of being decentralized and bottom-up driven makes it the most promising future of currency, which is why it's so important that we continue to work towards building an even more robust and resilient Bitcoin ecosystem.
