Exactly what happened with Bitcoin Cash, they would create a new shitcoin. In such scenario, we would rekt Blackrock (or they would rekt themselves) just by continuing to use Bitcoin. Blackrock underestimating all the other users of the network would learn the hard way.
Discussion
In all honesty, it depends on what narrative becomes the dominant one. We got work to do plebs. We need to tell the real story
If you hold IOUs you dont care. If you use Bitcoin today, you would never agree to use state coin instead. So good luck convincing each and every pleb 😂
“If you use Bitcoin”
There you go. More people need to use Bitcoin. Nostr fixes this
If one understands the value inherent in bitcoin they would never choose to use a fork created by the very state they wish to avoid. Yes, the state has unlimited resources, and can be convincing and people are gullible, yet more and more people are educating themselves and buying btc. It won’t change just because blackrock has a fork. The state has been using everything it has already, and it hasn’t worked. I could be wrong, but I would not bet against the plebs.
Bitcoin doesn’t need #nostr. Nostr needs #Bitcoin.
