This is definitely not the first insult in response to an argument I've seen here ;-). It's kind of a blockchain enthusiast tic. Right up there with HFSP and "you just don't understand the technology".

Argument? You don't have any. I have asked multiple times to provide info about the centralized authority that issues #Bitcoin ledger and is able to rewrite it to its own liking. You have NEVER provided the info. Why? Because you're just another troll who came to fix Bitcoin. Thousands of people before you tried that already. Good luck troll.

I never said any of that, so I doubt you asked for it either. Read closer.

My argument is that Bitcoin:

a) has a centralized ledger; every resilient centralized database is distributed across multiple nodes; what makes a database centralized like Twitter is not that it's hosted on one server (lol) but that it's distributed across thousands of nodes that constantly try to sync up with a single authoritative version. What makes a database decentralized like Nostr is that there are multiple unique databases everywhere and no conception of syncing them up to be the same version, no conception of a single authoritative global state.

b) has a central planner who arbitrarily pegged the fiat amount at 21M (a figure that is nowhere in the whitepaper and can non-theoretically be edited by 1 of 6 or now 5 developers with write access to the Github account)

c) opted for a centrally planned, artificially fixed rate of supply instead of a market-determined rate of supply, which removes the primary price stabilizing mechanism

Which of these would you like me to provide further evidence of?
