A senior finance director once told me: "I hate Bitcoin."
This is someone I respect. Smart guy. Decades of experience.
And yet... he hates Bitcoin.
Let me tell you what "I hate Bitcoin" actually means:
❌ "I hate money" → No
❌ "I hate good technology" → No
✅ "I hate that young people found an exit" → Yes
🔸 Here's the uncomfortable truth
The boomer generation built wealth in a specific system:
- Buy stocks (they go up forever)
- Buy bonds (safe yield)
- Buy real estate (prices only rise)
- Repeat for 40 years
It worked. Because the money supply expanded faster than the asset base, inflating everything they owned.
Now they're retiring. And they need someone to buy those assets at inflated prices.
🔸 Then Bitcoin appeared.
Young people look at the game and see:
- Stocks at all-time highs (P/E ratios make no sense)
- Bonds yielding 2% while they print 6% new currency per year
- Real estate requiring 10+ year salaries for a down payment
- Pensions that won't exist when they retire
And they say: "No thanks. I'll take the fixed-supply digital asset instead."
This is the real threat.
If the next generation opts out and buys Bitcoin instead of boomer assets...
Who's buying the stocks at these valuations?
Who's buying the bonds that lose 4% per year in real terms?
Who's buying the house for $800k that cost $80k in 1985?
They don't hate Bitcoin because it's a scam.
They hate it because it's an "exit"—and someone needs to stay in the system to buy their bags.
"I hate Bitcoin" = "I hate that you found a way out before I could sell you my overpriced assets."
