God I hate Bitcoin bears with a passion

All of them are parroting arguments we’ve defeated 5 years ago

“What if another coin comes up with greater speed than BTC”

Ok so it will lose decentralization to do that. How’s your SQL coin buddy?

“But bro it’s just software”

So is the internet but you don’t think that’s useless

“But dude it’s not backed by anything”

It’s backed by military grade encryption and the hash rate of fucking Norway. Are you serious?

God these people are so annoying 😂😂😂

if it is worthless ask them to give you a couple of coins, if it does not work pretend to give them some at a later hour and if they insist, agree with them and teach them how to short it with 100x leverage to prove their conviction.

you will gain nothing but the reactions will be worth the pain.

my fav one: „what if the internet shuts down globally, how’s your little bitcoin doing then?“ like dude, there won’t be any other problems then, right?

It’s actually a valid point meant to refute the claim that bitcoin is immutable. Bitcoin only exists in the digital space, no internet, no bitcoin.

No, Blockstreams satellite service, sms-based services like Machankura and many successful attempts via radio wave proof you wrong

Yeah, because everybody has access to that. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Literally africans who earn pennies, without any access to the internet are using the sms-service right now.

Ok, so what does sending sms’ have to do with buying and interacting with bitcoin?

Did you even read my responses or are you just trying to bash bitcoin with a bitcoin profile posting bitcoin content on nostr? What is this

It’s me, explaining to you that bitcoin is not immutable, that there are circumstances where you would not have access to it.

If you’re in the middle of Africa, with no access to the internet, then you have no access to bitcoin, it’s not hard to understand. Sending an sms means nothing.

My main point is that bitcoin doesn’t rely on the internet, not how hard or how easy it is to have access to it in a end time scenario. It is a fact that a global internet shutdown won’t destroy the Bitcoin network, your bitcoin will always be existing in the network and any global network system will ultimately give you access to it (in case the internet never ever gets restored again). And even today, without access to the internet you are still able to transact bitcoin via the sms-system. This you do not seem to get.

I love them. More cheap sats for us.

“Bitcoin is financial Darwinism.”

I like them. Always make me more bullish. Scary thing would be a detractor who knew what he was talking about.

≥It’s backed by military grade encryption

please don't say "military grade encryption", it's laughable to anyone who actually understands encryption and is similar to saying "military grade math".
