Bitcoin's $105K Wall: Is This Crypto's Last Stand Against the Elites?

Is Bitcoin’s current difficulty breaking the $105,000 merely a technical correction and a series of indicators? Or is there something bigger at play? I hope along the way I can help convince you that it’s a crucial battle in a much larger war, a war for the future of finance itself. A competition among individuals like you and me, as opposed to institutions.

Wall Street's Shadow Over Crypto?

Let's be real. Sadly, the crypto market—while still pretending to be more decentralized than traditional finance—is just as beholden to these forces that have long dominated traditional finance. We witnessed a $43 billion plunge across the crypto market. Coincidence? Or a coordinated maneuver? BTCUSD reversed in late April after climbing as high as $105,079 pink line, a price point last hit in mid-February 2025. It’s not only economics, it’s power all of that is shaped by power.

Think about it: who benefits from Bitcoin failing to break through? The same maneuvering by the very institutions that would lose the most from a real peer-to-peer, truly decentralized financial system. The banks, the hedge funds, the regulatory agencies that have made their empires on their control over the money flow. They need to keep a tight grip, and a free and open Bitcoin is the death knell for that.

First they demonize Bitcoin and crypto as “risky” and “unregulated”, but isn't that the whole point? To leave the rigged game in which the rules are written by and for the benefit of the rich? At its best, crypto is empowering—and when the playing field is level, everyone can succeed. It directly redistributes financial power and returns it to the community.

• Centralized Control: Traditional finance thrives on gatekeepers and intermediaries.
• Exclusion: Many are excluded from traditional financial services.
• High Fees: Transaction costs and hidden fees eat into your profits.
• Lack of Transparency: Complex financial instruments obscure the truth.
• Regulatory Capture: Regulations often favor established players.

Decentralization: A Threat or a Promise?

Look at DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations). These community-driven institutions are a radical departure from the top-down, centralized, controlled narrative of old, traditional institutions. They’re experiments in democratic governance, one in which every community member has a voice and financial stake in the outcome. That terrifies the establishment.

The resistance at $105,000 isn’t just a price point—it’s a symbol. It is them pushing back against the new world order and the old guard’s resistance to change. Picture a future where you’re in complete control of your financial decisions. In this new paradigm, you shape the financial landscape and cold hard cash on your terms, without the need for anyone to approve access.

Arbitrum’s (ARB) recent crash is a timely reminder. As we learned from Lido’s oracle exploit, the war is just beginning. We have to be on our toes to defend the projects that actually promote decentralization and to ensure those at the top are held accountable.

Our Choice: Fight or Submit?

For us this isn’t just about the bottom line, it’s about building a better tomorrow. A future where wealth creation is democratic, not oligarchic. A future where all people can lead healthy productive lives.

Are you ready to join the fight for that future? Or will you let the elites win? The choice is yours.

What can you do?

• Get Involved: Join a DAO, participate in governance, and support decentralized projects.
• Educate Yourself: Understand the technology and the economics behind crypto.
• Spread the Word: Share this article, talk to your friends and family, and challenge the narrative pushed by the mainstream media.

This isn't just about making money; it's about building a better future. A future where financial power is distributed, not concentrated. A future where everyone has a chance to thrive.
