Crypto was born to escape the banks — to give people freedom over their own money. For a while, it felt like the world had changed. But slowly… the old names started coming back.
Morgan Stanley, Citi, J.P. Morgan — the same institutions Bitcoin was meant to replace — are now building their own paths inside the blockchain.
They couldn’t stop it, so they joined it. They talk about innovation and adoption… but let’s be honest — what they really want is control again. The blockchain itself is still free — no one owns it, no one commands it.
Yet the doors that lead to it… are being guarded again. Maybe this is how every revolution ends — not with a crash, but with a handshake.
