There are breakdowns we don’t talk about... not because they didn’t happen, but because we got good at hiding the damage. The system keeps moving. The headlines keep spinning. You work. You save. You follow the rules. And yet your money buys you less, your debt keeps growing, and you can’t shake the feeling that something’s off.
Until one day, it hits. And you realize... you’ve been trapped inside of a financial illusion that was never designed to serve you.
In Bread, Circuses, and Bitcoin, entrepreneur Dylan Keuning pulls back the curtain on the hidden mechanics of money... the inflation, manipulation, and quiet erosion of wealth that most people never question. He unpacks the history they didn’t teach you, the incentives they hope you’ll ignore, and the quiet rebellion already underway.
He’s lived through the slow decay of a currency, watching the value of money in South Africa quietly erode over time. He’s seen what happens when faith in the system begins to fade. Instead of waiting for collapse, he shifted course... investing in real estate and digital assets like Bitcoin.
Brick by brick, he began rebuilding on truth, anchoring his future in value, not illusion.Through gripping stories, financial wake-up calls, and step-by-step reflections, this book shows you how to see through the noise, recognize the warning signs early, and exit the hamster wheel before the next wave crashes down.
Inside, you’ll discover:
✔ Why fiat currency always fails and how inflation steals your future
✔ How the banking system was built to keep you chasing, not winning
✔ The illusion of value and what real wealth actually looks like
✔ Why Bitcoin isn’t a trend... it’s a revolution
This book isn’t about hype or quick wins... it’s about facing what’s real. Because the truth is, collapse doesn’t just happen overnight. It builds quietly through silent taxes, shrinking options, and false confidence in a system that no longer works.
Bread, Circuses, and Bitcoin is your playbook for what comes next.
You’ve been playing the game... but the rules keep changing. You’re working harder than ever, but somehow falling further behind. Rent’s gone up, groceries cost more, and your savings aren’t stretching like they used to. You’re doing everything “right,” but deep down, you’re wondering why does it still feel like you’re losing? Something about the math just isn’t adding up.
You’ve started noticing the cracks no one else wants to talk about. The dollar doesn’t go as far. Banks keep failing. Politicians promise fixes, but nothing really changes. You’ve caught yourself wondering if the system was always this shaky... or if it’s just finally catching up to itself. You’re not panicked. But you are paying attention. And you’re not sure you can keep pretending it’s fine.
You’ve begun asking questions they never taught you in school. What even is money? Who decides what it’s worth? Why does it feel like the more they print, the less you have? You’re not trying to be a conspiracy theorist... you’re just following the logic. And what you’re finding is both unsettling and strangely empowering. Because once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
Dylan Keuning has spent most of his adult life challenging the status quo—sometimes in loud words, other times in quiet defiance. He was born and raised in South Africa, a beautiful country with deep struggles: high unemployment, disturbing crime and murder rates, and a currency slowly evaporating under the weight of rapid inflation.
Like most, he was taught that success followed a simple formula, get good grades, land a respectable job, and "save" what you could along the way. Even as a teenager, Dylan knew something was off. High school felt more like a system of compliance than a place for real learning. The more he questioned its purpose, the more disillusioned he became. Refusing to be indoctrinated by a system that rewarded obedience over original thinking, he set out to forge his own path.
At the age of 19, Dylan immigrated to the United States, where he built a life grounded in entrepreneurship, self-education, and the pursuit of freedom. His curiosity eventually led him deep into the mechanics of money, currency, and value... and ultimately to Bitcoin, where he found not just a financial tool, but a philosophy rooted in personal sovereignty.
He is the author of Bread, Circuses, and Bitcoin, a bold call to rethink what we’ve been taught about money, wealth, and the systems shaping our lives. Today, Dylan uses his voice to empower others to pursue freedom through financial literacy and independent thinking.
