Such a strawman that the shitcoiners use so people can market their shitcoins. Bitcoin does scale it just needs to scale through layers which is what is happening.

I have no issues using lightning and I wouldn’t consider myself a tech wizard. It’s not that hard and it continues to get easier (e.g., nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 allows you to run a self custodial lightning node on an iPhone).

Plenty of people working on alternative layer 2s that will complement and/or compete with lightning and liquid

Also nothing wrong with scaling through custodial solutions like the ETF or exchanges.

Again the key is we keep options open and available so everyone can self custody if they need or choose to do so

Not needing to trust ETFs is a huge reason Bitcoin exists and continues to grow.

If it's not self-custodial it's a bank account.

Lightning's just not there yet especially with small nodes. If that's layer 2, than most the world will interact with layer 3. Liquid is my new fav but still more centralized than some chains.

I think the world might not be prepared to find out just how expensive/slow Bitcoin will be one day. I'd rather use Bitcoin, but the gov will still fuck us all until merchants can accept it and our grandma's can spend it.
