Suddenly, everyone loves gold. Influencers, armchair analysts, recycled bankers, and conspiracy theorists with Wi-Fi. The algorithm decided that shiny metal is sexy again, and like good financial NPCs, everyone repeats the script: “Bitcoin is dead, gold is king.”
Funny thing is, five years ago no one wanted to touch that yellow rock with a stick.
The system’s most shameless double standard
Michael Saylor owns roughly 3.8% of Bitcoin, and apparently that’s “dangerous.” A systemic risk. A threat to humanity itself.
But central banks controlling around 30% of the world’s gold supply? Totally fine. That’s called “stability.” That’s called “trust.”
Gold is brutally concentrated, cartelized, and politically weaponized. If central banks decide tomorrow to dump thousands of tons to defend their trash fiat currencies, they’ll do it—no debate, no outrage, no Twitter threads.
Bitcoin, on the other hand, can’t be printed, seized, or coordinated so easily. That’s why it’s framed as the villain.
Physical gold: the favorite scam of “serious adults”
Try buying or selling gold or silver at the real price. Spoiler: it doesn’t exist.
They buy it from you at a discount, sell it to you with a premium, charge storage, insurance, transport—and still pretend it’s a “safe haven.” You’re never in price. You never win.
And then there’s the ultimate fantasy: “countries will go back to the gold standard.”
Sure. Cargo planes full of gold bars flying over hostile territories to pay for oil. Very efficient. Very modern. Very 1910.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin moves at the speed of light… but hey, it “uses too much electricity,” so obviously that’s the real threat to civilization.
There is no street hyperinflation—there is balance-sheet panic
No, there’s no hyperinflation in food or gas. What we have is financial hyperinflation, buried inside debt markets, bonds, and inflated assets. People don’t see it because they don’t read balance sheets—only grocery receipts.
Japan is choking on its debt, the Fed drives the economy staring at the rear-view mirror, and central bankers do politics, not math. When more than 50% of tax revenue goes straight to interest payments, the currency is already dead—just kept alive artificially.
And the solution? Always the same: print, dilute, and lie with a straight face.
Gold already ran—and now comes the bill
Gold is in a parabolic move. And every parabola ends the same way: violent correction.
But no one wants to hear that now that gold is fashionable and everyone is pretending to be a rebel—by buying exactly what the system controls.
Gold is not anti-system. Gold is the system.
Governments hold it. Central banks use it. The same actors who destroyed your purchasing power defend it.
Bitcoin: hated because it can’t be touched
Bitcoin doesn’t ask permission. It doesn’t fit in vaults. It doesn’t obey decrees. That’s why it’s hated.
It’s the only asset that gives you real ownership—not a promise, not a paper claim, not a “trust us.”
While fiat currencies are sacrificed on the altar of debt, Bitcoin just sits there—immutable, distributed, and quietly wrecking narratives. Not because it’s perfect, but because it’s inconvenient for those in power.
Buy gold? No thanks.
I’d rather buy Bitcoin.
Or, if there’s no other option, crush cans on the street—at least aluminum doesn’t pretend to be freedom.
