The traditional financial system was never built with your wealth in mind—that's the uncomfortable truth most don't want to admit.

Think about it: the rules were written by those already at the top. Centralized institutions control the game board, set the odds, and decide who gets to play. Your best strategy in their system? Play defense. Stay small. Don't disrupt.

True or false? The architecture itself is designed to funnel value upward, not outward. And if you're trying to break the mold, you're fighting against centuries of compounding advantage.

But here's what changed: blockchain flipped the script. Suddenly, the rules can be transparent, immutable, and democratic. You're no longer betting against the house—you're potentially part of it.

So the real question isn't whether the old system was rigged. It absolutely was. The question is: are you going to keep playing by those rules, or build something better?
