Replying to nobody

1. 'satoshi only built a rope bridge and it's up to all the smarter people thereafter to build a better one', huh? jfc.... hellova perspective to take for people who can't ever discuss anything other than Bitcoin with a capital B.

2. slightly divergent from the snoozer content of the video: is it yet obvious to people outside the computer world literally no one in the real world watches that clip and has any fucking idea what's being discussed? like: at all. i'd say it made no difference except the average person is increasingly impacted by the misrepresentation occurring on a stage like that.

3. real world legal issues exist because of #s 1&2 since the jargon used by "developers" is exclusionary. including the legal strategy.

Critically thought, unnecessarily harshly expressed, causally wrong . This is a video of a Bitcoin conference, where the B-community can celebrate itself and expect certain phrases to be understood. As far as the external impact and general understanding is concerned, yes, a lot still has to happen.

your unsolicited judgement of my "harsh" expression is in relation to which part exactly? 1 is in relation to a paraphrase from a panel comment. "wrong" is an obnoxious weasel word and means absolutely nothing in serious discourse. "the celebration of self" impacts the global community misunderstanding of the concept of bitcoin by commodifying connectivity, causing scheme uptake and validator bounty head hunting, ruining real lives. by using jargon to exclude, you deliberately promote misunderstanding for profit. i suppose remedying that's filed under "a lot still has to happen". which occurs by dropping the rhetoric.
