This is excellent framing.

Bitcoiners are gambling not only on themselves, but on other Bitcoiners, as well as #Bitcoin itself.

Either we become the new financial elite and have the means to shape a new world, or we fail and are a footnote in some few fiat history books.

We each of us have immense faith in the former but know the latter is possible.

If anyone SHOULD be the elites it is those who are willing to make such long-sighted gambles; this would truly be a better direction for humanity - but that doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.

There is no in between. The boats have been burned, we march forward to victory or humiliating defeat.
