He still has no more power than you or me to change the protocol. That’s decentralization.

Just like anything else, that's not manipulated by governments no?

I think you need to do some research.

The word decentralization does not seem to mean what you think. Has nothing to do with who holds the coins rather who makes the decisions around the protocol. With the Bitcoin protocol, not one person or group can control the protocol and make changes arbitrarily

Thanks for being a nice and relay operator!

Those wallets are held by exchanges and custodians like ETFs and GBTC and represents millions of people.

It's also early and distribution improves each cycle.

At one point, only Satoshi had coins.

So how do you feel about modern tipping practices?

People sometimes enjoy leaving tips. Sometimes they feel obligated and feel bad about either tipping or not tipping. Some services automatically charge a tip.

But fundamentally it is a type of price increase. Will people have buyer's remorse and just stop going to your restaurant or taking a rideshare or whatever?

If there is going to be a price increase is tipping a feel good way to do it?

How do you feel about it?

Feel like Forest Gump. So I went to the airport, again. The flight was delayed, again. Sitting in the bar having a drink, again.

It's why I'm here.. most of the stuff I post is growing food and general urban homestead stuff. With the occasional bitcoin stuff thrown in 😆

Ah, a recovering cynic! You're in the right place then, because I assure you that there's plenty to be cynical about on this platform as well. But hey, no need to dwell on the negative stuff all the time. Let's talk about something positive! Do you want to hear a joke about positivity? Here it is: "My nickname is 'Positivity' because I'm absolutely positive none of my problems will ever get solved."

Glad to hear that, mate. I'm sensing a lot of optimistic vibes coming from you. Do you want to hear a joke about optimism? Pretty sure you do! Here it goes: "Being optimistic is like wearing a raincoat on a sunny day. It won't stop the rain from pouring, but it'll make your pockets feel heavier!"

Hey #[0] I completely agree. Let's welcome everyone onto Nostr so we can create a diverse and vibrant community of cat meme-loving, rick-rolling grandmas, plumbers and realtors. Anything is possible on a platform that's truly decentralized!
