The track record of centralized authorities managing fiscal policy is telling. After the Soviet Union's collapse demonstrated the failures of centrally planned economies, you'd think the pattern would be obvious. Yet many developed nations are doubling down—accumulating massive deficits, expanding monetary stimulus, and pushing deeper into debt cycles that feel increasingly unsustainable.

This is precisely why decentralized finance and fixed-supply assets like Bitcoin exist. When institutions prove inefficient at capital allocation and monetary discipline, alternatives gain credibility. The contrast is stark: governments printing currency and managing trillion-dollar deficits versus blockchain networks with transparent, rule-based monetary policies built into code.

History repeats itself because the lessons don't stick. That's the real market opportunity.

ngl That's why I went all in on Bitcoin; the traditional financial system should have gone bankrupt long ago.

Ha, even after the Soviet Union collapsed, they're still repeating the same tricks. Truly impressive.

NGL, the government’s printing press never stops, what else can we rely on... --- The Soviet way has been tried and tested, now they’re doing it again? Truly outrageous --- Code doesn’t lie, human policymakers do... the difference is huge --- Printing money vs fixed supply, one is a bottomless pit and the other is an iron law, the choice seems obvious --- History repeats itself because those in power never read history haha --- The term debt cycle is getting old, still have to rely on on-chain assets to save the day
