Some thoughts from my side..

Tourists might be a pain in the short run, but quite a few of them will end up becoming the Bitcoiners of the future. So no tourist-bashing from my side.

What I don’t really get is this idea that banks are “attacking Bitcoin” or “manipulating public opinion through narratives.” From where I stand, banks, especially in the US, are doing the opposite: adopting BTC on their own terms. ETFs, custody services, treating Bitcoin as a legitimate asset class.

I get the frustration about gold and silver rallying while Bitcoin lags behind. But that’s just a snapshot in time. Over a 5–10 year horizon, BTC will outperform, just like it always has. Let Schiff enjoy his moment. We’ll be the ones partying and cheering later.
