I didn’t watch but it is why I have repeated often that Saylor is wrong here. If Bitcoin fails as a currency, it will fail as a store of value (similar to gold in time) I “ironically” debated Saif on our last podcast together and he took the Saylor view, which it sounds like he now understands.

They had a testy debate. His vision for the future seems to go against your argument that the new system is incompatible with the current system. #Bitcoin

failure via lack of confidence to sustain demand at the individual level (too. many lost or stolen keys for the average user to embrace self-cutody,) or externally (naked-short paper-attack from institutions, future computstional attacks at the network, or lack of Elon's endorsement).
What is the bar to measure success/failure as a medium of exchange? Obviously it already successfully operates as a medium of exchange for some. Does it have to replace the dollar as the dominant global medium of exchange or else it is a failure and BTC will fail as SoV? #Bitcoin
