Unlike stocks with varying degrees of success, Bitcoin's outcome is binary: it either succeeds in maintaining its fixed supply and becomes global money, or it fails and is worthless. This simplifies due diligence to a finite set of core questions.
Because fiat currency constantly loses value, people cannot simply save. They are forced to invest and speculate in markets they may not understand, diverting time and energy from their actual jobs, just to prevent their savings from eroding.
While true comprehension of Bitcoin is rare (under 1%), adoption by entities like the state of Texas is driven by signals like price, longevity, and endorsements from trusted firms like BlackRock, not a fundamental grasp of the technology itself.
Parker Lewis frames Armstrong's public withdrawal of support not as a failure, but as a calculated move. By demonstrating a willingness to walk away from the table, the crypto lobby can force compromises and secure better legislative terms.
By tracking the price of a single, consistent commodity (a ribeye steak) since 2020, Parker Lewis demonstrates a 72% cumulative price increase. This highlights the disconnect between official metrics and real-world cost increases for consumers.
AI models provide credible, deep explanations of Bitcoin, bypassing the skepticism often directed at human advocates. This allows newcomers to overcome the steep learning curve and see Bitcoin's validity, potentially speeding up mainstream acceptance.

Parker Lewis argues the act's vague language, intended to cover all of crypto, creates regulatory hooks that could ensnare Bitcoin later. He highlights weak protections for developers and self-custody as major flaws, creating a future "dragnet."
AI's energy-intensive nature creates a new, powerful stakeholder demanding cheap power. This diverts negative attention from Bitcoin's energy use and aligns incentives for building robust energy grids that ultimately benefit Bitcoin miners as well.
