Don't hate on me. I didn't make it.
I agree it's supposed to eliminate the central banks.
And he never said it wasn't meant to be sent peer-to-peer as you suggest.
In my opinion banks (middlemen) are not the problem.
The problem is central banks given the license to print money.
Saylor cannot print bitcoin - nor can Jamie Dimon.
If people are okay with the counterparty risk, that's their freedom.
And realistically - the majority of people who are walking the earth do not want that responsibility.
Sad but true.
And most people holding their own keys would be more of a risk than a bitcoin bank rugging them.
Dude I’m not hating on you😂.
I totally agree with what you have said.
My meaning of middleman was rent seeking business.
I never said banks won’t be there but I’m saying that every individual, corporation, ETF provider and banks should have power to hold their own keys rather than trusting a custodian like Coinbase who will eventually bend their knees to US government.
