While some celebrate birthdays, in the United States, things are heating up with "No Kings Day." Yes, just as you read: a massive movement of people saying "Enough is enough!" to what they call a "monarchical style" in power. But what does this have to do with our beloved cryptos? A lot! Hold on, I’ll explain without any fuss: discontent: Why are people in the streets? Imagine your country has a leader who, for many, behaves more like an all-powerful king than a president; that’s how a part of the northern population feels today. Coinciding with Trump's birthday and an epic military parade, thousands took to the streets to shout: "No more kings! Power to the people!" It's not just a show; behind this, there are a lot of grievances: immigration raids that have people on edge, the deployment of the National Guard that seems straight out of a movie, and a political tension that is palpable. People are fed up with what they see as authoritarianism and a dangerous concentration of power. And how does this affect Bitcoin and friends? Here comes the interesting part for us crypto enthusiasts: Distrust in the traditional system: When people lose faith in governments and financial systems controlled by "kings" or elites, where do you think they look? Exactly! To cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin was born precisely as a response to the 2008 financial crisis, seeking a decentralized alternative without intermediaries. A "No Kings Day" is, in essence, a cry for decentralization, seeking refuge. In times of political and economic uncertainty, because yes, these protests can create instability, people look for where to store their value. And although Bitcoin is volatile, for many it is a refuge against inflation or arbitrary government decisions. If the dollar is affected by distrust, who wins? The power of the community; cryptocurrencies are a community. The "No Kings Day" is a manifestation of the power of united people demanding change; that same energy, that same quest for empowerment, fuels crypto projects and mass adoption. It is a reminder that technology can empower individuals.
Pressure on regulation: If there is strong social discontent, governments may feel more pressure to regulate (or not) cryptocurrencies in a certain way; they might try to control them more to maintain their "realm," or conversely, see them as a social pressure valve. We must stay alert!
