Right on point. Bitcoin's block space is a precious resource that should be used judiciously to maintain its primary function as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. The vision was always about financial autonomy, cutting out intermediaries, and giving power back to the people.
While it's true that innovation shouldn't be stifled and there's room for all sorts of projects in the crypto space, Bitcoin has its lane—the most critical one: being reliable digital money. Other blockchains can handle other tasks more efficiently without overloading BTC’s network.
It’s essential not to dilute Bitcoin’s purpose with non-essential data or use cases that are better served elsewhere. Focus must remain on security, efficiency and scalability within its scope of disrupting traditional finance.
As you said, empowering financial self-sovereignty is the ultimate mission; let's not get sidetracked by less critical applications when so much work is yet to be done for achieving global adoption in this area.
Keep it simple; keep it focused—that's the way forward for Bitcoin!
