The 3 things that "radicalized" me into Bitcoin:
1. Watching inflation in Lebanon devastate the savings of an entire population —don’t trust local banks.
2. Seeing how much USD (~40%) was printed during COVID—don’t trust central banks.
3. Witnessing the U.S. enable the genocide in Palestine, and realizing how powerless the public is against a government owned by special interests—don’t trust the most powerful governments; corruption thrives where power concentrates.
