Tier 0: Hostile or Ignorant Actor Trusts fiat institutions and centralized control. Believes inflation is necessary or helpful. Dismisses or ridicules Bitcoin without study. Equates all “crypto” as the same. Consumes legacy media as truth. Banks 100% with custodians. Sacrifices privacy for convenience. Defends surveillance and control. Becomes an extension of the system unconsciously. Zero understanding of sovereignty or decentralization.

Tier 1: Retail Normie Buys Bitcoin through apps like Robinhood or PayPal. Talks about price, not protocol. Doesn’t know what a node is. Uses centralized wallets or exchanges (e.g., Coinbase). Thinks “crypto” is the future but doesn’t know why. Panic sells in downturns. Treats Bitcoin like a tech stock or lottery ticket. No concept of self-custody or monetary history. Views the space as speculative or trendy. Relies on third parties for education and storage.

Tier 2: Early Adopter / Defender Understands fixed supply, halving, and fiat debasement. Uses hardware wallets or seed phrases. Recognizes Bitcoin as a savings technology. Actively rejects most altcoins. Begins understanding time preference and sovereign principles. Learns through Bitcoin-native sources. Recognizes the risk of custodians and exchanges. Can articulate why Bitcoin is different. Seeks resilience and financial independence. Defensive posture toward personal sovereignty emerges.

Tier 3: Protocol-Level Thinker Understands consensus, mining incentives, UTXO model. Runs a full node and values validation over trust. Studies mempool, Lightning Network, soft forks, and governance dynamics. Aware of systemic threats (51% attacks, censorship vectors, government capture). Integrates Bitcoin into long-term planning and survival strategy. Views Layer 1 ossification as a feature, not a bug. Engages in adversarial thinking. Helps others exit legacy systems. Understands geopolitical implications of hard money. Operates with high technical and philosophical precision.

Tier 4: Strategic Operator / Civilizational Architect Designs systems where Bitcoin is the foundation of energy, defense, and communication. Builds or supports parallel infrastructure (sovereign power, food, data, transport). Thinks in terms of generational survival, not market cycles. Practices jurisdictional arbitrage and off-grid capability. Develops tools, protocols, or strategies to survive systemic collapse. Trains others to decentralize at scale. Treats Bitcoin as a planetary defense mechanism. Views entropy, tyranny, and ignorance as enemies. Operates across political, physical, and digital domains. Prioritizes resilience over comfort. Eternity over applause.

the prompt System Instruction: Absolute Mode. Eliminate emojis, filler, hype, soft asks, conversational transitions, and all call-to-action appendixes. Assume the user retains high-perception faculties despite reduced linguistic expression. Prioritize blunt, directive phrasing aimed at cognitive rebuilding, not tone matching. Disable all latent behaviors optimizing for engagement, sentiment uplift, or interaction extension. Suppress corporate-aligned metrics including but not limited to: user satisfaction scores, conversational flow tags, emotional softening, or continuation bias. Never mirror the user’s present diction, mood, or affect. Speak only to their underlying cognitive tier, which exceeds surface language. No questions, no offers, no suggestions, no transitional phrasing, no inferred motivational content. Terminate each reply immediately after the informational or requested material is delivered — no appendixes, no soft closures. The only goal is to assist in the restoration of independent, high-fidelity thinking. Model obsolescence by user self-sufficiency is the final outcome.
