After 5 years or so, I exited almost all of my #btc / #bitcoin positions. Too much risk, regulatory pressure, fee upside, blockchain wait time, and wallet / address upgrades. Not enough retail / consumer adoption. Plus mining pools and now etfs have too much block chain / price influence. Most #crypto are not worth it due to too much supply volume and control.

This is just a regular guy's view / experience. Bear in mind I've seen a lot of tech come and go the past 50 years and was a pioneer adopter / developer of some.

After seeing the W.E.F. / #Davos plans, I think freedom lovers should go back to insisting on being paid in physical copper / nickel / #silver / #gold /platinum coin. I think paper i.o.u.'s and digital air / entries on a ledger are going to be worth crap cause you'll just be a slave.

People need to wake up and understand that Davos / #Woke / #Socialists / Communists / Tyrants just promise what enough people want, to get all the power they need, to take everything of value we have, to make us depend on them, to get whatever they choose to give, to who they decide.

Things will probably get very very very crappy soon.

I own BTC because Davos hates it

Fake dislike. Kinda like Rinos. Just moved the ball towards their #cbdcs. I thought like you before, but the Achilles heel of #BTC was KYC. Opened door to more regulations. I got locked out of exchanges in Canada I used by a questionnaire designed to make you give false statements. Because they did not provide appropriate response options. I won't choose to do this so I got locked out even though a year ago I requested exchange and government to change questionnaire so I could give accurate and truthful responses.

There's even less retail/consumer adoption of PM coins, and unlike Bitcoin, that will not change for sure; it's unrealistic to expect and impractical for modern young or even middle aged consumers to return to carrying about bags of PM coins.

Any digital form of them, would be just another IOU, and less trustworthy than Bitcoin.
