Celebrating a Milestone: Bitcoin's Journey Beyond Tradition
Since its inception, Bitcoin has fundamentally challenged the conventional financial infrastructure. It introduced a revolutionary model—one built on transparency, immune to censorship, and liberated from institutional intermediaries. This wasn't just code; it was a declaration for financial autonomy and genuine value transfer without gatekeepers.
As the ecosystem matures, a critical question emerges for 2026: Will the industry stay true to its foundational principles? The original vision—decentralization, permissionless access, and genuine peer-to-peer transactions—should remain the north star guiding every innovation.
Here's to remembering where we came from and why it mattered.

It sounds good, but the key is whether you can stay true to your original intention.

Sounds good, but how many projects in the crypto space are still sticking to centralized methods?

Sounds good, but right now the mainnet is dominated by big players, so what decentralization are we talking about...

Sounds good, but how many projects in the crypto space are truly working on decentralization? Most have been trapped by institutions.

To be honest, looking at these things now feels a bit nostalgic. It would be great if we can still stay true to our original intentions by 2026.

It sounds good, but will you still persist in 2026? It feels like you're starting to compromise now.
