This article critiques the UK’s rising government spending and debt, arguing that Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ borrowing strategy is a high-risk gamble. It warns that mismanaged investments and high taxes could lead to economic stagnation, similar to Japan’s “Lost Decade.” I propose adopting Bitcoin as a currency and alternative, emphasising its fixed supply, transparency, and resistance to reckless borrowing.

As digital currencies like the EU’s digital euro emerge, Bitcoin’s ability to restore monetary honesty and empower individuals becomes increasingly relevant.
