Money is a Battery
16 Views
Money is a battery.
You give your time, your energy, your skill—
your contribution to society.
In return,
you store a claim on the future.
Value given,
value owed.
A promise from society:
“We’ll return the favor.”
But fiat is a broken battery.
It leaks.
It weakens with time.
It’s patched with lies and charged by theft.
While you trade sweat for savings,
others print their wealth into existence.
They skip the giving
and claim the owing.
Thy charge their battery
without first contributing.
They create claims on the future
without giving in the present.
Corporations, banks, governments, private equity—
They’re able to conjure
without contribution.
They say, “Society owes me,”
and the system obeys.
What a stupid battery technology fiat is—
a system where power decays,
and parasites thrive.
But Bitcoin—
Bitcoin holds its charge.
It cannot be debased.
It cannot be confiscated.
It cannot be conjured on demand.
To earn it, you must give.
By hodling it, you may protect it.
It is the battery of a just society—
fair to all,
rigged for none.
For the individual,
it is prudence.
For the society,
it is sanity.
Stack sats,
store your power,
charge your life with something real,
and reject the power of a battery falsely charge.
