When people realize that putting their money into banks means giving banks their money, it will be too late because they will have lost all their money they put into banks.

When people realize that leaving their crypto on exchanges means giving exchanges their crypto, it will be too late, because they will have lost all their crypto to exchanges. Not your keys, not your crypto, amirite?

Crypto isn't a bank. But the internet is.

If we can't get on the internet, we can't get our crypto. Using the internet is just as easy as depositing money in a bank.

Crypto we can't trade isn't money. Darpanet isn't our bank. It's wholly owned infrastructure we are being allowed to keep transacting crypto on, until we realize that putting our crypto on their internet makes it not our crypto. If we wait until they take the internet away, it will be too late to make our own. Cult of the Dead Cow made an effort to create a microwave meshnet back in the late 90s or early 2000s, but they failed. Beechat and Qortal are making an effort to create a p2p internet, but I don't think they're succeeding.

Maybe Musk will save you, by letting us use the internet he is making. If we can't get to our wallets, we can't get to our Hive. If we can't get to our blogs, we can't speak freely.

Protect your access to your crypto, stakeholder. Depend on overlords allowing you to access it at your peril, because they're not going to let you escape their clutches by using their infrastructure. Not your network, not your words, and not your value.

And you can take that to the bank.

Thanks!
