In the first quarter of 2025, China's marriage registration data was released, showing a year-on-year decrease of 159,000 couples. Some say that after the year of the Ox and Horse, what follows is the offspring being controlled by others. Being single allows for a laid-back lifestyle, with low desires and motivation; one person can eat enough so the whole family doesn't go hungry, earning less and consuming less. However, once married and having children, it's difficult to remain laid-back because one is constrained by something called a sense of family responsibility. You must work hard to earn money, to compete, and you will fear unemployment, illness, and you cannot afford to stop. So, in times of peace, why is everyone not getting married? Is the answer not obvious? When the Ox and Horse get married and have children, they remain Ox and Horse, still exploited by the ruling class through various taxes, supporting them. Many say I don't pay taxes, but as long as you consume, you have to pay product taxes and value-added taxes, which will all be passed on to the Ox and Horse. The more they give birth, the more Ox and Horse there are, allowing them to collect more taxes, leading to lavish lifestyles. If you don't marry and don't have children, their rule will slowly crumble, and the privileged class will panic, fearing the loss of their beneficiaries. In fact, the decline of Country C's economy is not due to technological backwardness, but rather a change in population structure and a decrease in population numbers. Without people, there are no buyers for houses, leading to the collapse of the real estate economy, with so many public servants being overwhelmed. There is not enough money to support them. The collapse of an empire must begin from internal disintegration. Now that everyone has no money, there is no capital to invest. For BTC to truly take off, it cannot do so without the participation of the wealthy Ox and Horse from Country C. $BTC
