How Do Banks Work?

gm fam,

Let’s break it down: How do banks work?

When you deposit money into a bank, it’s not just sitting there waiting for you. They take it, loan it out, invest it, and collect interest on it—all while giving you peanuts in return. The traditional banking system thrives on control and trust—and you’re the one who’s trusting them to keep your money safe and available when you need it.

But guess what? It’s not.

Banks run on a system of fractional reserves, which means they only keep a tiny percentage of deposits on hand. The rest? They’re playing with it. In a crisis, if everyone tried to pull their money out at once, the system collapses. This is how fragile the fiat currency system is—it’s built on trust in institutions that prioritize themselves over you.

Enter Bitcoin.

Bitcoin flips the whole thing on its head. No banks. No middlemen. No centralized authority controlling your wealth. It’s a trustless, decentralized system where you hold the keys. No one can inflate the supply, no one can freeze your assets, and no one can take a cut of your wealth while telling you it’s for your own good.

Fiat is built on trust in a broken system. Bitcoin is built on math and code.

• Fiat? Controlled by central banks, printed at will, losing value every day.

• BTC? A fixed supply. No one can manipulate it. No one can stop it.

This isn’t about just getting ahead. This is about taking control. Banks don’t work for you. They work for themselves. Bitcoin works because it doesn’t rely on anyone.

The system is rigged. That’s why Bitcoin exists.

Which side are you on?
