The problem isn't the system. It's the humans running it.
Every financial system starts with good rules.
Then pressure arrives, government mandates, security threats, growth opportunities, and suddenly exceptions appear. "Just this once," they say. Then again. Pressure always wins.
UNTIL THE RULES CAN'T BEND.
PB breaks the cycle: the rules are literally unchangeable. Not because we're trustworthy, but because we removed our own ability to make exceptions. You get self-custody, yes. But more importantly, no pressure in the world can force us to compromise your position.
Don't trust people, trust the immutable code.
