You never voted for inflation. You pay it every year anyway.

It shows up as a tax that never lands on a ballot or a return. Your paycheck buys a little less. Your savings quietly shrink. The dollar in your pocket is worth more today than it will be next year, and that isn't a mistake. It's the policy.

Since 1971, the dollar has lost more than 85% of its purchasing power. The people running the printer kept their jobs the whole time.

Bitcoin runs on a different rule. Capped at 21 million, enforced by every node on the network, changeable by no one. No emergency, no committee, no election can dilute what you hold.

The fiat system asks you to trust that they'll behave. Bitcoin doesn't ask you to trust anyone at all.

That's not a price chart. That's an exit.

Yes you DO vote for inflation. Every time you use fiat.
