Throwing everything into one bucket called "software" shows a gross misunderstanding of the spectrum here. A *consensus protocol* and an app are both software, but the conditions and need for each to change couldn't be further away from each other.

Tell me the last time you updated your TCP/IP because "it is software and it has to evolve" in order to make your internet better and you'll begin to understand how badly this idea misses the mark.

I don't think the need to evolve will be a concern once bitcoin starts monetizing again.

Bitcoin uses an individual's greed as an incentive to protect the network.

The incentives & participants change dramatically after a significant increase in purchasing power.

It won't change the opinions of some influencer Devs that much but it will make their opinion less relevant. This prolonged sideways price action tends to challenge people's perspectives & conviction.

This rhetoric for change will all magically disappear at $200K & I don't think it's that far away.

Everything has risk including Bitcoin. There are a lot of comparisons against gold, stocks. I just think these people do not understand Bitcoin because they never compare it to fiat whereas most bitcoiners completely understand fiat.

Further increase in valuation will make change more pushed for not less.

Nope.

The only real use case for decentralised blockchain is money. Everything else is better served by a database.

Monetisation only strengthens this usecase.

Many want change precisely for financial purposes. They ask for the Great Script Restoration. This is required for DeFi on Bitcoin. Look it up.
