Our political space-time structure reveals an absence of popular #sovereignty. This void signals a hidden sovereign, identifiable in the foundations of the global capitalist system. While the individual identities of power holders remain obscured, their collective essence is glaring: they are the owners of capital, the architects of Capitalism with a capital "C".

The monetary system exhibits intentional structural vulnerabilities, designed to concentrate control from its inception. These fragilities have cemented a ruling class: the guardians of global finance. The pernicious misconception is that currency belongs to the collective, when in reality it is a privatized product.

Money generation and administration occur through opaque, hierarchical mechanisms focused exclusively on profit maximization and transnational accumulation. This privatization of economic oxygen transforms finance into the ultimate instrument of social and political control.

Within this framework, Bitcoin represents a radical discontinuity. Its #decentralized #architecture, 21 million supply cap, and public transaction verification wrest monetary control from financial elites. By returning monetary sovereignty to individuals through #cryptography, it offers a systemic alternative despite scalability and adoption challenges.
