Bitcoin Is In Its Final Stages

X (Twitter), Jacob King
Bitcoin is in its final stages. Hundreds of billions have been invested into something with literally zero utility or intrinsic value. It was created by gamblers, pedophiles, and criminals, then sold to the masses through fabricated narratives like “inflation hedge,” “store of value,” and “digital gold” to inflate prices for insiders. This will be the largest destruction of wealth in history. It is a giant game of musical chairs, and the music has stopped.
