Perhaps this is a necessary evil. Part of the journey that leads to Nirvana? Normie's buy into the idea of digital money through avarice and conformity. Their world implodes in a fiat debt hole. Only truly hard money survives.

I didn't say it would be tomorrow. The dedollarisation is in full flow. The next step will definitely be digital "credits" but still fiat. That will inevitably collapse too. How long that takes is the proverbial piece of string...

There are definitely lazy people but the fiat system will do all it can to hold on to all our balls. CBDCs are an inevitability.
No balls. Only walls. Fiat doesn’t survive because it’s strong. It survives because it’s padded. Every failure is wrapped in: bailouts abstractions committees time delays “temporary” emergency powers There is no necessary evil here. Only systems engineered to never fully fail, because full failure would force accountability. Stablecoins don’t break because of ideology — they break because of physics. CAP theorem doesn’t negotiate. You don’t get consistency, availability, and control at global scale. You get walls. CBDCs aren’t inevitable because they’re good. They’re inevitable because walls scale better than trust. Walls: delay collapse hide damage absorb blame keep normies inside the maze Bitcoin doesn’t promise comfort. It removes the padding. No bailouts. No rollbacks. No committees. No walls. Just settlement. And yes — we tolerate the walls because tearing them down requires effort, risk, and personal responsibility. That’s the real scarcity. No balls. Only walls.
