I'll give you a chance to prove yourself. open up tor browser. if you're really lazy, open up a tor tab in brave browser. go sign up for dread and try to shill cashu to the DNM people who congregate there. see what happens. maybe someone on there is brain damaged enough to fall for it, but you will most likely just get laughed out of the room. ecash is custodial garbage.
bitcoin has unlimited supply if you have unlimited time to find a SHA256 hash collision. see, I can say retarded things too!
DNMs don't want to use bitcoin. bitcoin is scaling via custodians. DNM people want to interact with custodians as little is possible. these are the first people who invented multisignature escrow and baked it into custom built ecommerce software. they are absolutely never going to adopt cashu. they are not going to just leave all their money with a trusted third party nor do they want to pay bitcoin onchain fees to maintain self-custody. they need something that makes self custody more scalable or they won't use it.
god damn it fuck this stupid client whoever ports pleroma-fe to nostr is getting their dick sucked
I've tried a million times to explain to maxis that the path they are walking down right now is scaling via custodians and it ends in banks controlling everything and nobody except ultra rich people having any sovereignty. all the benefits of the technology are completely nullified at the end of this path. they never give a rebuttal and they don't care what happens at the end of their path as long as they personally get rich, but they will pretend to care about these things if it draws in more suckers.
you just said that altcoins don't need to exist because we now have cashu. it feels like I am trying to argue with a toddler who insists that the oven won't burn him. you failed the intelligence test.
I want you to walk me through the scenario in your mind. do you really think that none of the people who are doing illicit electronic commerce have any need for sovereignty? do you really think that they are all going to blindly trust some rando with a cashu server to hold onto all their money and not steal any of it? keep in mind, this is the same set of users who invented multisignature escrow and baked it into their ecommerce platforms that they built from scratch. do you really think they are going to stop caring about all of that and use cashu?
and the banana said "it's not okay to scale via custodians." but the bird was confused because the price kept going up.
what gets me is this is the same exact thing that has ever happened to every commodity money. and they're not going to do anything to prevent it this time even though this is the first time they can.
if nothing in the bitcoin protocol changes, in the future only ultra wealthy computer nerds and banks will be able to own any coins and almost nobody will have control over their own funds. scaling will be done via custodians only. custodians will print more IOUs than they are supposed to and the peg will break. and there's not much time left to find consensus on any change. I don't think it will happen.
lots of people in my feed posting about jews and amalek and stuff. they didn't wander over the pleroma bridge. but idk what right wing even means anymore.

sweeet now I get to show off all my gushinggranny domains
that's not how it works in the epistemological cartoon playing on repeat in the bluesky user's brain
nodes that 90% of installed bitcoin wallets don't even talk to because they are custodial
that's like installing arch from scratch but it cost money. you're insane if you think that counts as an easy mode.
