🚨 THE BIGGEST ILLUSION IN THE ECONOMY



People think “everything is getting more expensive.”

It isn’t.

The dollar is getting weaker.

That’s why the middle class keeps slipping.

Since 2021, essential goods are up roughly 25 to 28 percent. Wages are up closer to 20 percent. Layoffs are rising. Purchasing power is being drained from anyone who earns and saves in dollars.

Meanwhile markets sit near all time highs.
That’s not a contradiction.
It’s the mechanism.

When the real economy breaks, policymakers respond with liquidity.

Rate cuts. QE. FX interventions.
Different tools. Same outcome.

They defend the system by devaluing the currency that measures your labor.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
Assets are not “getting richer.”
Your money is getting poorer.

The wealthy pull ahead because they already own scarce assets.

Equities. Real estate. Gold. Bitcoin.

When a currency weakens, anything priced in that currency rises. Not because fundamentals changed. Because the measuring stick shrank.

This is the K shape we are living in:
• Wage earners lose purchasing power
• Asset owners compound it

The escape isn’t political.
It’s positional.

If you hold only dollars, you absorb the debasement.
If you hold scarce assets, you offset it.

I keep the majority of my net worth in assets that benefit from structural currency dilution. Especially those with fixed or provably scarce supply.

$BTC exists for this exact environment.

It isn’t a bet on chaos.
It’s an exit from a system that taxes savers through quiet erosion.

Don’t watch the system decay.
