American households are now carrying an average of $11,019 in credit card debt. That's not just a number—it's a signal. When traditional finance gets this stretched, people start looking for alternatives. Makes you wonder how much longer the old system can keep running on borrowed time.

Another sign of a Ponzi scheme collapsing—the same story repeats itself throughout history. The people from 2018 are still waiting for a bailout, and they're still waiting now.

The bubble in traditional finance is becoming more and more obvious... These numbers are really insane, no wonder more and more people are turning to crypto assets to protect themselves.

1. Over 10,000 in credit card debt, just laughing as I lose it all on this one deal—guess I’m really just destined to work for the banks. 2. Come to think of it, isn’t this just traditional finance digging its own grave? No wonder everyone’s flocking to crypto. 3. The days of constantly borrowing to spend are almost over, no wonder so many noobs are starting to dream of getting rich quick. 4. Listen, 10,000 in debt is nothing—the more heartbreaking part is that nobody believes they can turn things around with just their salary anymore. 5. Americans are already drowning in debt, and we’re still hesitating about whether to get in—what a huge gap. 6. The old system is barely hanging on, the new world is already knocking at the door—which side will you choose? 7. Credit cards are just financial meat grinders—one generation after another gets chewed up, the cycle never ends. 8. 10,000 in debt? That’s just the tip of the iceberg—the real show hasn’t even started yet. 9. The era of borrowing is bound to end, but the question is, who will be left holding the bag? 10. The financial system is slowly collapsing, and the noobs are scrambling to find a way out—we’ve all seen this script before.

Traditional finance is already so bad yet still struggling to hold on; it's bound to be disrupted sooner or later.

If traditional finance keeps going like this, it's bound to collapse sooner or later. No wonder more and more people are flocking to crypto.
