I'm not grieving the end of this fiat world. People need to get up to date with the state of things and unfortunately humans very much dislike change but change happens... They try to stop it when it's human ideas but ideas that are infectious cannot be denied. Eventually they have to accept it, or die trying to reject it.
Heresy is simply that which breaks the stability of the existing order. The ones who benefit from it spend incredible amounts of (stolen) resources in order to protect the order but eventually a dude goes up to a church door and nails a declaration and the high priests have to take that punch in the nuts.
As I understand Bitcoin it's on one hand this new declaration of liberty rights for those who chose this fight by buying it. On the other hand it is the manifestation of technological and culturel evolution that develops a secret force of gravitation that pulls You in whereever You are.

Yup, it's a revolution with many prophets too, Bastiat, Smith, Schumpeter, Mises, Rothbard, Tucker, Satoshi, Szabo, Antonopolous, Keiser, this has been coming for 200 years. TPTB knew this back in 1895 when they had one of the first international banker confabs of this modern era to try and plan their exit strategy, which the first step was starting war with Germany, the most capitalist free market nation in the world at the time, and they still couldn't squash it with one war so they did it again. And the EU has been nothing less than an attempt to suppress the spread of the ideas of freedom and free markets, look how much they have been punishing germans for their dirty capitalism! Their industrial base is collapsing under the weight of ESG hooey, and the pushback is getting louder and louder each time the people catch their breath after they punch at them.
It is sheer grace that this winter has been so mild giving them enough time to restock their fuel supply so at least the people aren't freezing to death in their houses.

Top comment, thank You, mate! Especially Your remarks concerning our beloved commie EU. This construct will blow up the hard way, too.
