Simon Dixon: The Game of Money and What Would Make Him Sell All His Bitcoin

— The global financial system is transitioning from a unipolar American-led order to a multipolar regional system with competing settlement rails and central bank digital currencies.

— The $40 trillion US national debt is a Ponzi scheme that will never be repaid; growth must exceed the 3.3% average cost of debt to sustain it.

— Programmable, controllable money through CBDCs in Europe and stablecoins in America represents a "global control grid" that concentrates wealth and enables social credit scoring.

— Bitcoin functions as digital resistance against this control grid by enabling self-custody, peer-to-peer spending, and a fixed monetary supply independent of central authorities.

— Housing and asset prices will continue inflating; the only path to wealth for most people is spending less than earned and investing in assets that outpace inflation.

— AI companies are raising massive debt ($800 billion+ annually) at valuations exceeding treasuries, competing directly with government bonds for capital.

— Accept that you cannot afford a house using the boomer playbook (job → education → mortgage); instead, either generate income that outpaces inflation or build and own assets that do, recognizing your skills in digital/AI work may offer better opportunity than real estate.

— Hold Bitcoin in self-custody and resist all centralization vectors: monitor BlackRock's ETF share, watch mining pool concentration, and push back against block-size increases or developer funding tied to the financial industrial complex.

— Spend less than you earn every month and invest the difference in assets (Bitcoin, commodities, stocks, or businesses) for the rest of your life; this is the only reliable path to escape debt servitude in a system engineered to extract wealth from the working majority.
