You’re either a #Bitcoin maximalist or you’re not.
You can’t be in between.
Calling yourself a “quasi-maxi” just means you don’t get it.

False dichotomy
Why did you say so ? 🤔
I just think “maxi” attitudes can result in close-minded thinking.
So what other way can we look it this ? 🤔
Well, for example, I have some knowledge about chia, which uses a unique “nakamato” consensus mechanism to solve the Byzantine general’s dilemma. Obviously btc uses proof-of-work and many know about proof-of-stake and its centralization problems but chia (xch) uses proof-of-space-time. Now I’m not saying it’s without problems nor do I recommend it to anyone. But it is very interesting to me from an engineering and efficiency standpoint.
A maxi attitude precludes people from learning and just creates more echo chambers in which we can all lazily have our biases confirmed.
I reject that approach to critical thinking and learning.
