After this bull run, you are probably not going to see $100,000 again. Just like you never saw $10,000 in 2022

Two of bitcoins biggest issues are privacy and quantum-resistance. It’s taken a bear market and Zcash to go up 3000% a year for it to be taken seriously. Central banks will need privacy in order to make transactions on the base layer. Scaling is not an issue at the moment as fees are at all time lows.

Shielded Bitcoin: You peg BTC into a private bucket of encrypted notes. Move it around with zero-knowledge proofs so nobody sees sender, receiver, or amount. Later you peg out to a fresh address, on-chain link is gone. Same mixer logic as Tornado Cash:) No soft fork. No operators. Bitcoin just stores the receipts.
