The bitcoin narrative has veered far away from early investors' vision of it enabling economic freedom, at least in the U.S.

Bitcoin's core values – decentralization, censorship resistance, its peer-to-peer nature – get pushed to the side time and again as the industry tries to grow in a world run by intermediary institutions. Opening an account at a centralized exchange like Coinbase or Kraken (or, until recently, FTX) is the easiest and most common way to get into crypto. And it's safe to bet most people are playing the speculation game, trading crypto on an exchange instead of transacting directly with another person as bitcoin was intended.

This is the best buzzword salad I could find that hopefully pulls in some bots.
