Sorry, but that's the fiat "UX understanding" of Big Tech and platform business, where you keep users stupid and inactive by "abstracting away complexity".
But bitcoin isn't a platform. It's a protocol. The rules of the game are different here. The UX is also different because the "user" journey is different.
Bitcoin is different.
That’s the point.
Sats the standard.
Do you think these billions of people will talk about mempools and other technical parts of the protocol?
You have rice, I want rice, you want bitcoin, I send you bitcoin, we move on with our day. They might still be sats, but most people have other things to worry about.
You're digressing. People will just call anything smaller than a bitcoin sats. It's really not that complicated.
Again, I think they will not want to deal with learning a second term because they have other really important things in their life that they’re also trying to learn about.
To use sats, they have to hear Bitcoin. I think for many people, the learning will stop at Bitcoin and sats won’t have a chance to permeate.
This is dumb. Dollars, cents, etc. It's all been said. Sats are the standard.
I agree. I’m just saying that given the trend of mainstream’s adoption of technical terms, I think sats fade over time in the lexicon
"Sats" isn't a technical term. It's a relatively widely name for smaller dinominations of bitcoin in homage of the creator(s). There are a lot of bitcoiners who have minimal technical skills (myself included) who understand this at face value without more than a glance.
Saying the words “fiat” and “Big Tech” doesn’t change human behavior of people who are too busy to care that the bitcoin they received are also called sats. They are intelligent people who have more important or urgent things to deal with.
Saying the words "human behavior" or "intelligent people" doesn't change bitcoin's behavior. Many have learned this lesson. You'll learn it too.
You seem as if you’d like to have a different discussion.
Think about all the people in your life who use the incorrect technical term for things and roll their eyes when you correct them. It has nothing to do with their level of intelligence, they have other things they focus on.
In better times, people were embarrassed not to know the right terms. Now everyone is screaming "customer experience" and "inclusivity" and whatnot.
Thank God for bitcoin, because in a bitcoin future, you work on understanding and naming things correctly, or you're just #hfsp
It's not that you're wrong. It's just that you're working from different premises, and I think those premises are wrong because bitcoin dgaf.
