There's a growing awareness in crypto and alternative finance circles about how certain legacy industries operate. Take pharma—the whole system is built on keeping people dependent rather than truly healthy. It's a business model that thrives on chronic conditions and repeat prescriptions. The real wake-up call isn't just about the drugs themselves, but understanding how profit incentives shape what gets researched, what gets marketed, and what actually gets prescribed. When you zoom out and see how these industries monetize dependency instead of solutions, it changes how you think about systemic corruption. This is exactly why many Web3 advocates push for transparency and decentralization—because once you see how broken these traditional power structures really are, you realize we need better alternatives.
