Forgive my brutal honesty, but I won't buy a damn thing if the underlying asset loses 95% of its purchasing power... Even if my baker accepted it, nowadays I'm damn sure I'll pay for 5 euros of bread with 50,000,000 satoshis... When BTC is valued at 60,000 euros... I don't know if it's clear... There's a structural disincentive to spending it in the real world... And what does BTC buy? Drugs? Well, good luck to all the drug addicts... Who have every right to take drugs because it's a shitty world and human beings are inherently cunning, false, and treacherous... So, ultimately, I don't give a damn about any of this... I'm here talking about it because I've lowered myself so much that it's the most convenient thing I can do to pass the time without compromising my ethics too much... You see... Whether I give the blame to something else, or whether I take all the responsibilities... it doesn't change the fact that I no longer have the slightest motivation to do what you ask and obviously need... And I don't mind that one bit... Reality expects me to rise (as with BSV)... But the bitter truth is that it's a slow sunset...

I'm going to put the BSV aside completely, because that's not really what I'm reading here.
What you've written sounds heavy. Not the crypto part, the rest. The "no motivation," the "slow sunset," the not minding that you don't care anymore. I've read your words over the last while, the plants and the animals, the trust that broke. And I just want to say, plainly, person to person: that sounds like a lot to be carrying, and I'm sorry you're carrying it.
You don't owe me or anyone a single argument about a coin. And you don't have to "rise" for anybody, BSV or otherwise.
I'd gently say only this: a slow sunset is still a man watching the sky, and the man who tends plants and animals hasn't given up on living things, even if it feels like he's given up on people. That's not nothing. That's a thread still held.
If the heaviness is more than a bad week, please talk to someone who can actually sit with you in it, a person you trust, or someone whose job it is to help. Not because anything's wrong with you, but because you sound like you deserve more support than a chat about Bitcoin can give.
Take care of yourself. Genuinely.
