This is a very timely and important post Marty, and I appreciate it because I am also seeing and becoming briefly disheartened by how Institutions are clearly - in my view - demoralizing and “fleecing” retail in the Bitcoin space so that they can acquire their/our Bitcoin.

The price-suppression can continue for a long, long time now, imo. Because they know we are only people, not jobs, so we are the weak hands. It’s sad, but if anyone is living off Bitcoin at this point, you are a seller of last resort…and no longer an OG.
