Let's be very clear: Bitcoin succeeded as in becoming the first real globally accepted cryptocurrency.

And yes, it is also being co-opted by the powers that be and failing in its original cypherpunk mission as a currency as laid out in the white paper as far as I'm concerned. This includes its ongoing challenges with privacy and functioning as a truly peer-to-peer electronic cash system, as originally envisioned.

So, "success" is a relative term here.

I have written much on the subject that you have read, liked, and agreed with over the years about Monero and Bitcoin, privacy vs open ledger, store of value vs digital currency etc.

It was not my intention to respond to the OP in great detail on things I have posted about countless times before on this account.

And because I only like to repeat myself when I'm being redundant... ;)

And since you mentioned this twice in a post and this comment... I will say again...

I did not say, "Nostr is real censorship resistant."

My exact words were, "Nostr is building the right solution for real censorship-resistance."

By "right," I mean permissionless and decentralized. By "building," I mean it's a work in progress.
