Good reply, Preston.
However, IMHO everyone is missing the point by giving all of their opinions of what should or should not be done. The only relevant things is what will actually happen with Bitcoin.
If you want another metaphor, you don't defend a lion or debate how it should perform in a conflict . You just watch it do it's magnificent performance. It is designed to be free.
This grand BTC experiment is racing ahead faster than any of us realise.
This time next year, we will be facing another ATH, after another halving, and the airwaves will be awash with more opinions.
The nation states will all be panicking because their CBDC's are not performing and their currencies are sinking faster in the swamp of debt.
Meanwhile BTC, in the network state, will be saying "tick, tock, another block".
