Bitcoin has no CEO to fire
No balance sheet to manipulate
21 million supply stays the same
Block time stays the same
Institutions are building quietly
Infrastructure keeps improving
Volatility is noise
Every cycle declares Bitcoin dead
Every cycle, Bitcoin survives
Miners secure the network
Nodes enforce the rules
Users hold their own keys
Price moves
Principles do not
Bitcoin is not competing with crypto
Bitcoin is competing with time, trust, and money
Nothing fundamental is broken
Only conviction gets tested
Bitcoin does not need belief
It just keeps working
