DATs, Custody & the End of Bitcoin’s Ideals? | Token Narratives Ep. 68

Bitcoin was built on self-custody. Now it’s being pumped by institutions that hold your coins for you.

In this segment from Token Narratives ep. 68, @_dsencil, @andrei_rwa, and @graminitha1 debate whether the Bitcoin community has traded its principles for price action. As DATs, ETFs, and wrapped BTC take over, does decentralization even matter anymore?

They cover:
– The quiet death of Bitcoin L2 narratives
– Why mining is still dominant at Bitcoin Asia
– How institutional wrappers (like DATs & CBTC) reshape Bitcoin culture
– Whether self-custody is becoming irrelevant
– If decentralization is only optional now

Is this the evolution of Bitcoin… or the erosion of what made it matter?
