Need some Ammo, how do I respond to a really smart friend of mine who thinks.
1) BlackRock will get best MIT people and come up with a Better Bitcoin
2) On Saylor after I sent a link to Saylor BTC Prague Keynote; "Yes, I’ll listen to it. I recognized MicroStrategy and Saylor. He’s had a number of legal issues, particularly fraud and most recently tax evasion."
If he thinks saylor has a number of legal issues, wait until he looks into the banks.
Coming up with a better Bitcoin is already a trillion dollar opportunity, Blackrock doesn't need to incentive anyone, and 22,000+ shitcoins have already tried
We can just steal BlackRock/MIT's code and run it as a drivechain.
1. Anything BR does, Bitcoin can just hard fork and adopt it
2. Saylor isn’t bitcoin, and we’re all gangsta af
1) Why doesn’t BlackRock get the best MIT people and come up with a Better FaceBook?
2) Every successful person in business has had a number of legal issues, kind of embarrassing not to know that.
3) “Fraud and tax evasion”? How does the justice system work in his opinion? If Saylor committed fraud and tax evasion, shouldn’t he already be in jail? He seems sensitive to sensationalism.
Anyway that’s what I got. Good luck, “really smart” people are the hardest to convince, because they outwit themselves.
1. Validate his concern with Saylor. He has had legal issues and there’s no reason anybody should be turning a blind eye or going full whataboutism to defend him just because he’s bullish. Ignore Saylor, he’s just a loud voice.
2. Bitcoin is a unique Schelling point, there’s 10000 smart Ivy dudes working on other projects that are competing but only one clear Schelling point.
