🔍 Should Bitcoin Be Bought With Fiat? A Deep Flaw in the System

One of the most uncomfortable truths about Bitcoin today is that it's still being bought with fiat — the very system it was created to escape. This raises a serious question: How can Bitcoin remain a truly decentralized, honest form of money if anyone with access to printed fiat (like governments or billionaires) can accumulate it without doing any real work? If the U.S. government, for example, prints $5 trillion and starts buying massive amounts of BTC, doesn’t that mimic the same manipulation and inequality we see in traditional finance? Bitcoin was meant to be earned — mined through effort, or exchanged for goods, labor, or value — not simply bought with inflationary currencies. This core issue undermines Bitcoin’s founding philosophy. It risks turning it into another asset controlled by the elite, rather than a global, fair money system powered by proof-of-work. Until Bitcoin is truly earned — not bought — it will remain partially entangled in the same broken logic it was designed to replace.
