Imagine living in El Salvador buying some bitcoin yesterday or trying to spend it. Or receiving it for a service.

And now a single transaction cost more than your rent for the month.

That individual OR BUSINESS will basically never touch bitcoin again.

This shit is dumb as fuck, if you’re participating you deserve what you have coming! ($0)

I’ll go as far to say as I bet you’re a spoiled nerd, gets 0 pussy and is spending their Friday night going broke gambling on shit coins.

The average citizen of El Sal makes like $10-$25/DAY you fucking animals could go on vacation there for the same price of ONE TRANSACTION and actually support their initiatives with bitcoin. Instead you signal the opposite.

You raise some interesting points. I'm from The UK. It's 0605hrs and I'm just coming to bed after drinking for the last 18 hours. Is that healthy? Absolutely not. Do I own Bitcoin? I do. Am I happy? No. Do I live in El Salvador? Am I in work in the morning? No. Would I have stayed up till this hour if I was? No. Are fees Absolutely astronomical at the moment? Yes. I'm not quite sure where I'm going with this, I just thought I'd answer some questions that I'd pose myself😂🫂.

Appreciate the conversation! 🤙

Even if you don’t live in ElSal, the same would apply to basically entire continents. It makes bitcoin impossible for ~98% of the world.

Very selfish shitcoinery going on rn

Again, I pretty much agree with what you're saying. It is very much becoming a rich man's toy. Far from Satoshi's vision of a P2P cash, especially at the moment, as you say, with the fees😕. Lightening might and probably will be the way forward for cheap payments but it still needs a lot of work👍🏻

🤔 There is some strange stuff of NOSTR but this is up there. Hope you are doing better today. 😂

Ha ha ha, just got up. Not feeling too bad all things considered🤙🏻.

There is LN for those user case, not perfect, but it's something.

Yes currently in the process on emailing p. Bukele to enable ⚡️on🐐 (Chivo)
