We invite you to embark on a seven-stage masterclass journey that replaces ‘feelings’ with ‘data’ and ‘luck’ with ‘strength’ in the challenge to the top 1%. [Editor’s Note]

“Why do I work harder than my parents’ generation, have a better resume, but feel increasingly poor?”

The 2030 generation in Korea asks. Even if they save their wages in fixed deposits and study financial books, the prices of apartments in Seoul remain out of reach. Many blame their own lack of ability or ‘not working hard enough.’ But the real culprit is not you. The real culprit is the ‘fiat currency’ itself, both in your pocket and in your bank account.

◆ The Betrayal of Money: “Money Does Not Truly Exist”

We believe that money has ‘value.’ That a 10,000-yuan banknote can exchange for goods worth 10,000 yuan. But calmly speaking, modern society’s money has no physical form. It is merely a ‘credit’ that governments and banks promise to be ‘valuable,’ a ‘debt’ of the state.

The decisive event that shattered this belief was the ‘Nixon Shock’ on August 15, 1971. President Nixon announced that the dollar would no longer be convertible into gold, severing the link between currency and ‘physical (gold),’ turning it into paper that can be printed infinitely.

◆ How Much Is the $20 from 100 Years Ago Worth Today?

Data does not lie. In 1933, the price of one ounce of gold was about $20. Today, in 2026, one ounce of gold is worth well over $2000. Has gold become more precious? No. Gold was the same stone 100 years ago and now. What has changed is the dollar. The dollar’s value has plummeted by 99%.

If your grandfather exchanged $20 for cash and stored it in a safe in 1933, and did not convert it into gold, that money has long become worthless paper now. This is inflation. It’s not rising prices, but the melting away of currency value. Holding cash is not ‘safe,’ but a path that leads unavoidably to poverty.

◆ Bitcoin, the ‘Ark’ of the Digital Age

Therefore, humanity needs a currency that governments cannot arbitrarily print, a means to protect the value of assets without intervention of authority. This is why Satoshi Nakamoto revealed Bitcoin in 2009.

Bitcoin has no company. Nor does it have a CEO. But it is the only asset in the world with a ‘fixed issuance of 21 million coins’ through mathematical algorithms. Even if the Federal Reserve Chair or the President comes, they cannot print even one more. This is the first invention in human history of ‘perfect digital scarcity.’

Investing in Bitcoin is not simply a guessing game of ‘Will the price go up?’ It is a ‘defensive and philosophically meaningful choice’ to board the lifeboat in the flood of liquidity (money replication) to avoid losing one’s purchasing power.

◆ “This Is Not Speculation, But the Beginning of True Investment”

Now, let’s change the question. Instead of asking, “Can I still buy Bitcoin now?”, we should ask, “Am I going to watch my assets melt away?”

But do not jump in blindly. If you do not understand why Bitcoin is an asset and how this market operates, you are easily swept away by the waves of volatility and sunk. You must arm yourself with ‘knowledge’ rather than ‘feelings.’
