The last few weeks in Bitcoin have been tough…
We’re watching a real paradigm shift. AI capabilities are exploding and becoming accessible to almost anyone. Bitcoin’s strict open-source culture and clear financial incentives made it the first obvious target. First of many.
Now imagine the banks, stock exchanges and government systems still running decades-old human-written software packed with vulnerabilities - code that’s extremely hard to replace or refactor in any reasonable timeframe. Closed source bought them time. It didn’t buy them immunity.
We have to brace for intensifying cyber wars and a rapidly growing chance that standard financial rails, banks, institutions and companies take real damage. It’s no longer “if.” It’s “when.”
Bitcoin is going through massive hardening right now. I expect months, maybe even years, before things stabilize and the whole ecosystem adopts new security standards.
When it does, Bitcoin will come out stronger than ever and better prepared for the AI age than anything else. Banks and governments? I’m not so sure...
