The Inevitable Takeover of Global Finance

King Of Crypto Is Here
Bitcoin: The Inevitable Takeover of Global FinanceWe are not witnessing the birth of a new asset class. We are witnessing the death of an old monetary order.For five centuries, the world has run on fiat money: currencies issued by governments and central banks, backed by nothing but promises and enforced by legal tender laws. That era is ending. Not because Bitcoin is asking politely, but because the mathematics, incentives, and network effects of a decentralized, fixed-supply digital bearer asset are proving themselves stronger than every legacy institution trying to stop it.Look at the scoreboard in November 2025.
  • Bitcoin’s market cap has just crossed $2.1 trillion, larger than the monetary base of the euro and closing in on Japan’s M2.
  • El Salvador’s national treasury now holds more Bitcoin per capita than any other sovereign entity holds gold.
  • BlackRock’s IBIT spot ETF alone has $62 billion in assets, more than the entire gold ETF market had in 2015.
  • The U.S. government itself has become one of the ten largest holders through strategic reserve purchases and seized coins it quietly decided not to auction.
  • Twenty-three U.S. states have passed or are passing legislation allowing Bitcoin in state pension funds and as legal collateral for bonds.
  • The first G20 country (Argentina) just announced it will begin paying 15% of public sector salaries in Bitcoin starting Q1 2026, with voluntary conversion to pesos at a guaranteed rate.
These are not fringe developments. These are the early moves of institutions that have finally run the numbers and realized the game is already over.Why Fiat Is DyingFiat dies for the same reason every previous form of unsound money died: infinite supply meets finite trust.Since 1971, when Nixon closed the gold window, the dollar has lost 87% of its purchasing power. Since 2020 alone, U.S. M2 money supply has increased 42%. Every major currency has followed the same path. Central banks told us 2% inflation was a feature, not a bug. The public is now learning it was neither; it was a slow-motion theft.Meanwhile Bitcoin’s issuance schedule is carved in code: 6.25 BTC per block until 2028, then 3.125, then 1.5625, asymptoting to exactly 20,999,999.99999999 coins. No committee can vote to print more. No president can sign an executive order to inflate it away. The halving is more predictable than the sunrise.That predictability is lethal to fiat regimes. When people discover there exists a form of money that cannot be debased, the psychological switch flips. It starts as curiosity, becomes allocation, then preference, and finally exodus.We are in the preference stage. The exodus is next.The Network Effect Death SpiralMoney is the ultimate network good. Its value comes from how many other people accept it. Once a superior monetary network begins compounding, the old one enters a reflexive doom loop.
  1. Early adopters move a few percent of their wealth into Bitcoin.
  2. Its price rises faster than any other asset in history.
  3. Late adopters notice and begin moving larger percentages.
  4. Volatility declines as market cap grows.
  5. Institutions that once called it “rat poison squared” now stake their reputations on custody and ETFs.
  6. Nation-states realize holding zero Bitcoin is now the risky bet.
  7. The best talent in finance leaves banks to build on Bitcoin.
  8. Tax bases begin to hollow out as wealth is stored in an asset governments can’t easily seize or inflate.
  9. Central banks lose the ability to set negative real rates because capital flight into Bitcoin becomes instantaneous.
  10. Game over.
We are somewhere between steps 6 and 8.The Sovereign Adoption WaveThe most under-appreciated story of 2025 is the quiet race among nation-states to accumulate Bitcoin before the music stops.Paraguay is negotiating with MicroStrategy-style entities to issue Bitcoin-backed bonds. The Swiss canton of Zug now accepts 100% of tax payments in BTC. Bhutan has been mining with hydroelectric power for three years and is sitting on an estimated 15,000+ BTC. Even Germany, after its disastrous 2024 forced sale of seized coins at $58k, has introduced legislation to re-accumulate through mining partnerships.The reason is simple: in a world where the dominant reserve asset cannot be printed, the country that owns the most of it wins. Gold took 5,000 years to become the global reserve because it was the hardest money humans could find. Bitcoin is harder, more portable, more verifiable, and more divisible. The transition will not take 5,000 years. It will not even take 50. It is happening in a single decade.The Death of “Number Go Up” CriticismFor years critics mocked Bitcoiners for caring only about price. That criticism is now inverted. Price is no longer the goal; it is the symptom. The goal was always adoption. Price is just the market’s way of screaming that adoption is accelerating faster than anyone modeled.When Michael Saylor began buying in 2020, people laughed. When El Salvador made it legal tender in 2021, the IMF threatened sanctions. When BlackRock filed for an ETF in 2023, the SEC dragged its feet. Every one of those entities has been proved not just wrong, but catastrophically wrong.The new critique is that Bitcoin is “winning too fast.” Central bankers now whisper in private that they fear a “sudden stop” in dollar demand if Bitcoin crosses $150k-$200k and corporations begin holding it as primary treasury reserve asset en masse. They are right to fear.The Final Stage: HyperbitcoinizationEconomists have a term for what happens when a clearly superior money begins displacing an inferior one at accelerating speed: hyperbitcoinization.It looks like this:
  • Corporations hold BTC on balance sheet not as a “speculative investment” but as the new cash equivalent.
  • Individuals in high-inflation countries stop converting Bitcoin to local currency and start pricing goods directly in sats.
  • Lightning Network wallets outnumber Venmo users.
  • Nation-state miners become the new OPEC, except their cartel is enforced by cryptography, not politics.
  • Central banks either pivot to Bitcoin reserves (like digital gold) or become irrelevant museums.
  • The IMF is replaced by a global settlement layer that clears in 10 minutes for fees measured in fractions of a penny.
We are not predicting this future. We are watching the opening minutes of it play out in real time.The Only Question LeftThere is no longer a serious debate about whether Bitcoin will take significant market share from gold, offshore banking, or fiat reserves. The only question is the timeline.Will the full transition take another ten years or another three?My answer: faster than you think, slower than you hope.But direction is no longer in doubt. The fiat era lasted roughly fifty years—from 1971 until the first sovereign nation made Bitcoin legal tender in 2021. The Bitcoin era will last until something harder than mathematical scarcity is invented.Until then, every sat you stack is a vote for the future. Every institution that allocates is admitting the old regime is already dead.The king is dead.
Long live the king.
Bitcoin isn’t just taking over finance.
It’s ending the era of money as a tool of control and returning it to what it was always meant to be: the preserved fruit of human time, voluntarily exchanged between free individuals.
Stack accordingly.
