Now, my question is: why are we trying to bring all the useless gimmicks to #Bitcoin? Sure they will work better because they will operate on a superior standard, however are they necessary?

I ask this question because I struggle to answer it. I’m open to anyone’s opinion or thoughts.

I feel like the “developments” people are advocating for in the space will lead to more scams than utility. People suggest this could help with important documents, but I’m fairly certain 99% of the actual use will come from overpriced and poorly designed pictures of animals or mystical creatures. This has separated hard, under educated workers from their money in the past, and I’m not sure if I will be able to support this type of morality, even if it’s on #Bitcoin.

Another question: I understand people’s desire for everything to be on chain, but is this necessary?

#BTC on-chain transactions being slow and costly is a feature not a bug, but aiming to make the problem worse, especially for the miners sake seems like a lost cause to me. You likely aren’t attributing to an at home miner as much as you are to the big institutions, everyone flips nuts over hash rate, don’t they care it’s mostly coming from industrial miners and not your average at home pleb?

Maybe times are changing and these trends are bound to continue, but they are definitely food for thought.
