We’re enslaved by numbers. Bank balances, credit scores, TikTok followers, NFTs—every metric becomes a cage.
But the cruelest joke? Chasing digits we’ll never truly own.
This piece pulls back the curtain on history’s greatest con: fiat fantasies, manipulated markets, and even Bitcoin’s paradoxical role in the matrix.
Meet the digital drug dealers rigging the system, warping what “value” means, and keeping humanity hooked on empty metrics.
Is Bitcoin the antidote to our collective poisoning—or just another needle in the vein?
The fight for financial freedom starts with seeing the chains.
