Are you critizising him for not being able to solve an impossible problem? Or what do you mean? Are you proposing that he should stop working for making bitcoin mainstream and usable? And that he is hypocritical for making a business out of his ideas. Something doesn’t add up in your reasoning.

Critizism is about P2P electronic cash without a 3rd party.

There is nothing in this department within strike!

Back when it all started he was working on Zap but decided to go with the bank app = Strike, which is trusted 3rd party.

Zap is what Zeus is today.

Build business of what innovative ideas?

There is only one idea in bitcoin is the first paragraph of white paper.

P2P Electronic cash without 3rd party financier!

He’s actually doing stuff, creating stuff upon bitcoin. You are whining about things not being done in a purist way. Ridiculous.

Bitcoin is antibank not with the bank

There is no other way!

If you want other way use PayPal

There are a lot of ways.

If I need to use Paypal I will. And I will definetely use Strike.

I have a couple of hundred thousand sats on Zeus, but the limitations in the user experience is not attractive.

He never said Strike is permissionless or without trust, Bitcoin already solves that and there are dozens of LN and BTC wallets. Strike is a company that uses Bitcoin to solve many problems and it helps bitcoin adoption. Many ppl around me didn't accept bitcoin and now with Strike they accept and even hold bc it's easy to receive and sell for fiat whenever they want, so they feel that safety. It's a good first step for many normies and even business owners.

Bitcoin was not created to sell for fiat you must be restarted.

I’m talking about actions the reality and not that he never said strike is permissionless etc…

I don’t care what he says I care what he does.

His actions are in tune with banks and bitcoin is antibank.

Strike only helps with bitcoin KYC capture and nothing there is p2p electronic cash.
