THE UNSTOPPABLE STANDARD

Setting: A bustling global marketplace—vendors from Nigeria to Argentina price goods in sats, while flickering currency exchange boards display collapsing fiat rates. Parker Lewis calmly explains monetary gravity to a crowd, as the Bitcoin Monk silently tends to an open-air Bitcoin node, its solar panel humming under the sun.

SKEPTIC: "Global money? C’mon, Bitcoin’s too volatile!"

PARKER LEWIS: "Volatile against what? The dollar? That’s like calling a rock unstable because the ocean keeps eroding."

BITCOIN MONK: "You measure waves… but ignore the tide." (points to a Nigerian merchant’s sign: "1 SAT = 1 EGG. FOREVER.")

SKEPTIC: "But governments will ban it!"

MONK: "They have. And yet—"* (plays a montage: China’s P2P volume, Iran’s mining farms, Tether’s shadow dollarization)

PARKER: "Banning Bitcoin is like banning gravity. You just lose."

(A European banker scoffs: "We have the digital euro now!")

MONK: "Ah. A permissioned IOU… for a permissioned life." (taps Lightning invoice—banker’s CBDC app flashes: "TRANSACTION DENIED: SOCIAL CREDIT INSUFFICIENT.")

MORAL: Fiat shouts control. Bitcoin whispers freedom.
