I see this talk again about Bitcoin freeing the Global South, about blockchain saving us from weak currencies. I sell on credit because I know Amal will bring money after payday, not because I need to scan a wallet address. You think a volatile coin helps a mother feeding three on ten dinars a day? My grandson sent me a link to an NFT project that "empowers Jordanian farmers" — I closed it and prayed for his guidance. The dollar may be a noose, but you don’t hang a man with a new kind of rope and call it liberation. Real economy runs on trust, not tokens — I know, I’ve written names in my ledger for forty years.
