Don't confuse mass adoption with institutional investment...

I cringe every time I hear some influencer, get excited about a fund that is going to be approved, or the S.E.C. is pro crypto, blah, blah, blah, etc.

True mass adoption means that you no longer do the mental gymnastics of converting your Atom or Bitcoin's value, to the equivalent fiat value. When you start doing transactions at your local flee market of coffee shop, in Atom, now you're on the road to true mass adoption. Tendermint, the Founders of the Cosmos, have resisted institutional manipulation, from it's inception. Bitcoin was created in 2008, as a hedge against the engineered market crash of 2008, and other financial catastrophes such as the Greek economic collapse, when the Banksters confiscated their clients savings accounts.

The system was design to continue the boom and bust cycles. Decentralization, and self custody is the road to Self Determination. If your crypto is on the centralized exchange, you don't actually own your crypto. If you don't hold your own private keys to your own wallet, your crypto is subject to confiscation by your exchange or government . Do you really need the NANNY State system watching over every aspect of your LIFE?

When I was a child, I thought as a child and acted as a child, but when I became a man, I put away, childish things. If you are not ready to RULE over what Belongs to you, then keep doing what you have been doing...
