Sometimes I catch myself being a hypocrite 🤷‍♂️

I have $XRP 💰 I believe it can change my life and the lives of my family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

And at the same time, I talk about how crypto has lost its original character – anonymity, independence, freedom from institutions. And the truth is, I don't uphold these values myself anymore.

Once, crypto was pure and innocent ✨

Created by people who believed in freedom and equal opportunities.

Now, sleazy financiers control everything, pushing themselves into every space and preparing enslaving chains for us again ⛓ – only in a digital version.

And I don't know what to think myself 🤯

I'm waiting for another increase 📈 so that my portfolio is finally in the black.

But I know that this growth will be driven by slogans like ETF, SEC, FED, CBDC – exactly what crypto was supposed to free us from.

So why am I still getting into it?

Because after 17 years of working as an employee, I know that hard and diligent work doesn't bring rewards.

Always someone who digs holes under others goes higher.

Always the one who plays "dirty" has an advantage.

I don't want to live in luxury at the expense of others, but I want my family to have a better life ❤️

And here comes the question that plagues me:

Is it possible to earn really big money these days without entering into morally questionable deals?

Can you win in a world where the rules are set by those who don't follow them themselves?

I don't know...

But I know one thing – if I have to choose between a pure ideology and the future of my loved ones...

More and more often I choose the second option ⚖️.

And you?

Do you also have such moral dilemmas, or do you remain faithful to your idea no matter what? 🤔
