You know. Any idea is worth scrutiny, even flat earth. But there is a moment when you see a massive quantity of people repeating the same exact bullshit about things they never understood. Still waiting someone that knows tridimensional trigonometry and is able to show me why the earth should be flat in relation with all the information we have. For the moment I just hear discourses that even a freshman in highschool with a basic physics knowledge could easily prove false or insignificant

Already is

Remove middle man?

This last 5/6 years all i saw was bitcoiners adding middle mans, neo banks, custodials!

And worst of all, the majority of the usage of bitcoin today is through middle mans.

Of course you cant prevent states of using money they also use monero.

But building the middle man infra and praise you are removing it shows how a shitshow bitcoiners are doing

He was on the wrong side during the block wars (wanting to gradually increase blocks), as well as on BIP 300/301 which is total shitcoinery.

I was amazed to understand his position on those issues.

The good news is that Bitcoin has no CEO and Bitcoin is stronger than any of its OGs.

Bitcoiners don’t actually want to separate money from the state, they wrap themselves in that rhetoric while everything they do orbits price, just to feel good and think they are better than others.

You’ll never hear them admit it outright, but every argument boils down to “price, price, price”.

You will never hear them talking and using features on bitcoin, because is not the tech they appreciate, is the price movement.

It doesnt surprise me that ligthning wallets transactions are made 90% over custodials

When monerists talk about features like ring signatures, steath adresses, FCMP+, they deflect with “network effect,” “institutional adoption,” or “Bitcoin standard”, thin excuses for prioritizing FIAT gains over censorship resistance.

Presenting Bitcoin to outsiders as an NGU-driven get‑rich‑quick scheme invited the worst of society inside. Now deal with the consequences, you’ll have to live with your own poison.

You will never separate money from state because this choices and behavior!

Fake freedom figthers, all postures, no principles.

I pray that the people of England have the intestinal fortitude to fight back against the heinous encroachments on civil liberties by their government.

British politicians and bureaucrats have gone made.

Everything in the fiat system is going to collapse, Bitcoin is going to replace it, in the same way the Internet replaced fax machines.

Until a couple of years ago, Internet fax gateways still existed, however.

Most companies have tangible value and their share price should reflect this, as fiat becomes increasingly unable to do this, share prices will be shown in Sats.

In countries with hyper inflation, such as the Lebanon, people still use the currency on a day to day basis, but as soon as they received payment for their goods, they transfer that local currency into a more stable asset such as dollars, or in the Crypto world, Tether or Bitcoin.

What surprised me about observing these countries is that hyperinflation is no longer an end game, it simply enforces a different coping strategy.

I think they are advancing.

My bank is Xapo, a Bitcoin bank.

My original bank is Barclays, which is to customers extremely hostile to Bitcoin despite buying it for its own balance sheet.

Game theory wins, you are obliged to play a game that disadvantages you, because not playing it disadvantages you further

ok ok ok. I'll be there in 10. talking with mum atm

Spam is an opinion. My view is Bitcoin is money, that has nothing to do with cat JPEGs. Others have different opinions.

Blocksize determines transactions per second.

Currently Bitcoin runs at a maximum of around 7 TPS.

You can compare this to the banking system, who make settlements internally mostly using RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement), this has a max throughput of 9 TPS.

If you want Bitcoin to be the world’s settlement layer, then its current capacity is sufficient.

If you want the world to use it to settle any transaction size, then 7 TPS will not be enough.

Currently Lightning is good up to about 1M Sats.

RTGS generally operates at millions of dollars.

In the future it is unlikely this gap will reduce as BTC price increases.

I think this is going to be a problem.

If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have time to try to convince you, sorry

Citadel vibes only 😜
