Use case! Same as what would make ALL of mankind accept gold? Or better yet PAPER!? Here’s a pic and what you see can’t be unseen 😈 paper fails multiple properties of money. And the use case that Bitcoin provides derives from its super properties of money. On undercooked is decentralization!! They understand it’s mining is decentralized but they don’t understand that decentralized CONTROL of MONEY is a modern day discovered property of money that Bitcoin has exposed to us… The problem it solves is corruption and nobody can ever exploit the system for greed šŸ™šŸ» many many problems solved with this one change in money āœ…

They are literally mocking people that think paper has value…

You’re saying the use case of bitcoin is that it’s superior money, particularly because it provides decentralized control of money? But this presumes that I believe you that it has value. Considering almost no merchants in the US accept it (minus a select few) it can’t be used as a medium of exchange and so isn’t valuable. The paper, with its poorer properties of money is widely accepted.

Well then that would be the ego test that Jake Mallers talks about. He says Bitcoin is an ego test!! The longer it takes you to learn why exactly Bitcoin is superior and very much a medium of exchange. Then the less coins you will have when 1sat eventually buys you what 1$ used to… 30 Hershey bars…
