one way I like to think of it: bitcoin is like nostr, a decentralized protocol, no CEO, no management, rules without rulers.

crypto is like Twitter, a centralized “company”/authority that can change the rules, rules BY rulers.

yes, Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, but it’s the only decentralized cryptocurrency. Bitcoin ties the digital world to the physical world through its PoW mining, but I won’t get into the weeds.

alright, come at me with the torches and pitchforks 🔥

I agree 💯

ohh ok. this makes sense i think ??

Everything that came after Bitcoin aimed to be “the next Bitcoin” and solve problems that didn’t exist. and it all has a central point of failure except Bitcoin.

Sounds like a self evident proof of work.

Dogecoin 😉

Correct

There is no second best
