Maybe I'm losing it, but the logic seems crystal clear at this point.
We're staring at a binary outcome: either decentralized money takes root, or we're all headed toward a control system none of us signed up for.
This isn't some philosophical debate we can table for later. The clock's ticking. Governments are ramping up their surveillance playbook, and as money goes digital, the levers of control get easier to pull. Every transaction tracked, every wallet monitored, every economic decision potentially filtered through bureaucratic approval.
The question isn't whether you like crypto or not. It's whether you're comfortable with a future where financial autonomy becomes a relic. Because that's the trajectory we're on if private, permissionless money doesn't win this race.
No middle ground here. No compromise position. Just two paths diverging, and we're running out of runway to choose.

To put it simply, there is no third option; either you win or you are constrained to death. There's nothing more to discuss.

It's not as simple as black and white; reality always has gray areas.

There is no middle ground; this statement is too extreme. Reality is not so black and white.

You're not wrong; it's indeed the moment to lay everything on the table, with no gray areas.

Nah, this guy is being a bit harsh, but I fucking agree, there really is no middle ground.
