Banks Don’t Want You to Know This

For decades, we’ve been taught to “trust the banks.”
Trust them to protect your savings. Trust them to store your money. Trust them to be the foundation of the global economy.
But here’s the truth: banks don’t want you to know how the system actually works because if you did, you might start asking questions.
Let’s unpack it.

The Only Certainty in Traditional Finance is Inflation
We’ve been sold the idea that “a little inflation is healthy.” But for who?
Over the last 10 years, wages have stayed mostly flat in many countries, while the cost of living has skyrocketed. Food, rent, and energy are all up. Fiat currencies like the Argentine peso, Venezuelan bolívar, and Lebanese pound have been devalued to the point where savings became worthless.
Even in Europe or the US, your money silently loses value year after year. Inflation isn’t just statistic, it’s the slow erosion of your future.
Banks know this. That’s why they loan your money out as fast as possible. Which brings us to the next hidden truth.
Your Money? Not Really.
When you deposit money in the bank, it’s no longer legally “yours.” You become an unsecured creditor. What does that mean?
The bank can restrict how much you withdraw.
They can freeze your account (ask anyone who’s been flagged without reason).
And worst of all, they can lose your money during a bank run or crisis, and you’ll be left holding the bag (see: Cyprus 2013, Lebanon 2019).
This is the fractional reserve system in action: banks only hold a small portion of the money you deposit. The rest? They lend it out, often at higher interest rates and profit from it.
You take the risk. They keep the rewards.
Banks Are Just Like Centralized Exchanges
If you understand how platforms like FTX or Celsius collapsed, you understand how banks function under the hood.
They take customer funds
Use them to speculate or lend
Offer withdrawals when everything “works”
Shut the door when too many people want their money
“Not your keys, not your coins” applies to fiat too.
The Crypto Alternative: Ownership, Not Permission
Now imagine a system where:
You own your money outright
No one can block your transaction
No one inflates away your purchasing power
And You earn the yield, not the bank
That’s what crypto was built for.
Bitcoin gives you digital property rights. It’s a savings technology that protects you from inflation and monetary debasement.
Ethereum gives you access to decentralized finance. A world where you can lend, borrow, earn yield, and manage assets without asking permission.
Stablecoins and DeFi tools let you navigate today’s volatile world while preparing for a more sovereign future.
This isn’t theory; it’s happening. In countries like Argentina and Venezuela, people are using crypto to survive. In Lebanon, it’s a lifeline when the banking system fails. In China, CBDCs are already being rolled out, giving governments real-time control over how, when, and where people spend.
Europe is next.
The Bottom Line
Banks don’t want you to know:
Your fiat savings are being devalued every year
Your deposits are not actually yours
You’re footing the risk while they earn the returns
You now have a choice
The money is broken, but you don’t have to be.
