Why I made the final shift from Shitcoin Minimalist to Bitcoin Maxi.

When I realized no one was building anything on top of anything but Bitcoin.

Blockchains are for conflict, the are hard, they are not supposed to be fast nor easy. If you make them either they don't do what they are supposed to do.

So they will always have limits especially with "scaling" and real "scaling" is global. Global scaling means price go up, means fees go up or security is shit.

So the solution is going to be tech on top of chains not the chains themselves. With that every "UsE cAsE" I used to shriek about died a death and I buried it, admitted I was wrong and moved on.

99% of all maxies did this in some form over their development. Upshot, yes we are right, but, stop being assholes to shitcoiners, you used to be one too.

"bUt nOt mE JaCk"

Oh really says the person who used to be all in on the US dollar. We say stay humble but forget one thing about humble people they are also nice.

Monero is good.

yes #bitcoin is the goat AND shitcoin rhetoric is juvenile 🎯

Yeah but a zero tolerance policy for shitcoins is how we actually move things forward

Until someone gives up their shitcoins, it’s really necessary to shun them and dismiss everything they think they have to say

It’s not about being mean, it’s about allowing people to go waste their time without wasting yours

I came to the #bitcoin party just as the DJ started his set, so missed out on the shitcoin set up. Though i did set up a pirate chain wallet.

Thanks to you, i played with LBRY credits to learn how to use exchanges and wallets before going all in on the big B.

So thanks jack, for all you help and encouragement 😁

Yup, I swapped my altcoins for btc when I joined nostr and realized ppl are building awesome tech on top of btc and the blockchain itself doesn't have to do everything.

How else are they supposed to learn? I used to think Bitcoin maxis were just archaic zealots, but they were right all along...

Being right is no excuse for being an asshole.
