While Bitcoin was intended to enable people to opt out of state-centralized money systems, the blockchain industry has since lost its way. Today, we see the threat of government overreach along with blockchain solutions that prioritize scalability and performance over decentralization.
The rise of networks like Ethereum and Solana has certainly been captivating, but these blockchains comprise core values in exchange for usability and institutions‘ adoption. To achieve the mission that Satoshi started, there is a dire need to return to Bitcoin’s original ethos of money, which is credibly neutral, immutable money that cannot be manipulated.
