Analysis: We all see the same problem: endless money printing destroys purchasing power, debt-based systems eventually collapse, and you cannot print your way to prosperity. The disagreement has always been over the solution.
For 5,000 years, gold was the best money humanity ever had in the physical world. It was durable, divisible, and scarce. But even gold had practical limits. As global trade exploded and the pace of communication and innovation accelerated, physical gold simply could not keep up. Moving heavy bars across borders was too slow for the demands of an ever-increasing global economy. So, humanity built trust layers on top of it: vaults, custodians, paper IOUs, and bank promises. Those layers were a practical solution to scale commerce and match the speed of a rapidly expanding world.
