Bitcoin is generationally cheap right now. The 20k high from 2017 is 30k+ in 2022 dollars (adjusting for inflation of dollar supply). We're already below that today with the current price of $22k.
Those holding out for Bitcoin to crash below 20k have forgotten that the supply of USD has grown 1.6x since 2017 when Bitcoin first reached 20k. The equivalent amount of USD today is over $30k.

You ask Bitcoiners "Why are they the experts in monetary theory and how to do better politics and how to solve failing democracy" but you don't question the banking cartel's fiat monetary theory after so many years of it failing. Bitcoin is the leading theory.

Bitcoin's approach to decentralizing finance is simple and works, yet no competitor has been able to replicate it.
(1) Decentralize the collateral
(2) Let the market develop layers.

If you bought Bitcoin through FTX but never withdrew to your custody then what you held was an IOU, just like dollars in a bank. The bank/FTX can gamble and lose it all. The counterfeiters at the central bank can print more dollars to bailout banks but can't print more Bitcoin.

Think in sats
1.00000000 BTC = 50000.00 USD
0.00002000 BTC = 1.00 USD
Alternatively
$50k = 100,000,000 sats
$1 = 2,000 sats
You can get TWO THOUSAND satoshis for only $1!

Will the SEC be publishing guidelines on how to self custody Bitcoin? The alternative of investing in a fund that holds Bitcoin futures results in a guaranteed loss every year of the management fee and additional costs associated with rolling the future position at expiry.

Fiat currencies like USD are at risk of mismanagement by central entities. The central bank’s mandate is to steadily devalue it via inflation. The Govt is willing to print more to bail out a failing industry (or itself). The purchasing power of fiat has always fallen.
