DAY 1 — THE CREDIT & DEBIT OF $BTC ADOPTION

✅ CREDIT:
$BTC finally cracked distribution. Pension funds, RIAs, wealth managers, brokerages — all can now stack sats without touching a private key. That capital pipeline isn't going anywhere.

⚠️ DEBIT:
But here's the paradox: Mass adoption via TradFi means millions own $BTC exposure without ever possessing, moving, or verifying a single coin.

$BTC's original flex? Permissionless ownership. No intermediaries. No gatekeepers.

The irony? Millions are entering through a system that lets them buy the asset without ever holding it. Custodial exposure ≠ self-sovereignty.

We solved distribution. But did we lose the ethos?
