Farley on Nostr: Not a single debt-based economy has ever survived. Not once. Every empire, every ...
Not a single debt-based economy has ever survived. Not once. Every empire, every system that relied on debt expansion over real value collapsed under its own weight.
🔹 Rome debased its currency. Collapsed.
🔹 Weimar Germany printed endlessly. Collapsed.
🔹 Every fiat system in history? Same fate.
And yet—people still fear that a time-and-energy-based system like Bitcoin could fail in the presence of a debt-based one?
That’s the ultimate fiat delusion:
💀 They trust a system that has failed 100% of the time…
⚡ But doubt a system rooted in unforgeable scarcity, pure mathematics, and real energy?
The truth is, debt-based systems only survive by expanding. Once they can’t—they implode. Bitcoin doesn’t need expansion, manipulation, or forced participation. It just is.
One system collapses like every one before it.
The other outlasts, because it’s built on the only thing that ever mattered— real work, real energy, real value.
It’s not if the debt-based system fails. It’s when. And when that moment comes…
💨 Poof. Gone. Like every debt-based illusion before it.
