We all need Layer 2’s scaling, specially within a Bitcoin HUB like El Salvador, he is actually right on the fact that on chain fees will get very expensive. Maybe this recent event have triggered some people because the way it was hmmm… “implemented”. But think in a few years from now, it will be this expensive if not even more, so people will move eventually to layer 2’s.

They’re loading stupid jpgs with ephemeral and speculative value now, but it is a legit way to use it. Just like people making gold phone cases (because they can), but it doesn’t matter.

TL;DR: bloating the timechain is fucking dumb but people will do it until they run out of money. Nation states need to move to layer 2 ASAP

I think you are right, but the problem here is the why this is happening not whether it was ever going to happen or not. It’s also very tone deaf that through this whole thing no one has ever stopped to consider about the fact that 100 USD is a lot of money for someone who makes 300 USD per month. Might not be the case of this specific user but it is the case of many here in El Salvador who are just starting to see the benefits of using bitcoin and understanding everything else might be a little beyond them…

I mean, I know you make this post knowing the problems and possible solutions.

I think you are right too, although sadly, they don’t give 2 f*** and they actually know what they’re doing (or most of them), from what I heard I some twatter spaces, in fact they think it’s an achievement 🤦🏻‍♂️
