more basic setup then?

Probably? I never tried it.

Find better solutions or cry harder.

Bitcoin is a good tool. But it's just a tool. Beware the people who worship it as a savior and laud it as the solution to all the world's ills. They are fools.

There are people who only want Bitcoin to win, because according to their thesis Bitcoin fixes everything.

This is one of the most outrageous things I've ever heard from people with the capacity for conscience.

What fixes everything is the inner and individual change that each person makes to become a better person, which consequently improves the community around them.

Everyone preaches change in others, but how many really want to change themselves?

Bitcoin doesn't fix anything, because bitcoin is a tool and like all tools, it doesn't have the free will to do anything on its own, it doesn't have the free will to decide to only allow its use for good.

Bitcoin was created with the main role of being a tool that removes personal exposure from the creation of new currencie, and in that respect it has fulfilled its function exemplarily so far.

Now, is Bitcoin the best tool to use as everyday money?

In my humble opinion, no, because to make a purchase or exchange goods there is no benefit in exposing so much information in a simple transaction.

Would you feel comfortable if every time you made a purchase with your bank account the person you were buying from could see how much you had in that wallet?

Is it sovereign to use your main wallet to make payments in Bitcoin?

I don't know anyone who has the slightest understanding of Bitcoin who makes any payments with their main wallet!

For this very reason, I don't think that the main use case for Bitcoin is to replace physical money, but I do see it as a substitute for a savings bank account, protected from all anti-sovereignty measures and devaluation of the currency through new issues of the same.

In the case of a digital substitute for physical money, I think it's much more viable to use the most private too in the digital world, which in my opinion is Monero.

When person A makes a transaction to person B, only A and B know how much has been transacted between them, and with the information they both generate in the transaction, neither person A nor person B knows any information other than what is strictly necessary to carry it out!

In this way, I consider Monero to be an approximation of what physical money is in digital terms!

In conclusion, nothing external changes what's inside, and tools are just tools, it's what we do with them that can trigger change!

It's Benance, not Binance from now on.

The future will be planned, developed and run by men and women with guts who build and invest in companies that build the future. This has always been true. Open Source is not a cult or a hat you can wear while you gush on a “Podcast” or hide in a ghetto echo chamber.

History shows that Closed Source Software can dominate because the public has no interest in “Open Source”, and most advocates for it can’t put aside their pride to push companies that refuse to pander to infantilism and nonsense.

Winning in the market means embracing the rules of the market; that means promoting the good guys if you have a voice, not just Virtue Signalling to your audience. It means building companies and serving people, not just talking about it endlessly. Thankfully there are a handful of men and women who understand this and who are making the sacrifices required so that others can claim success for other people’s work.

This is true in Bitcoin obviously. No one cares that it is Open Source, and if a closed source copy comes to market that harms consumers, “CBDCs”, just as Micro$oft dominated, CDBCs will dominate…but don’t feel bad; fanboys will post on Nostr from their Windows laptops that “THE OPEN SAUCE REVOLUTION IS COMING!”.

People who refuse to promote Bitcoin companies but cheer on the names of the tools and philosophies and who refuse to invest in companies are the sort of person you should strive not to be, if you want to see the problems Bitcoin was written to fix get solved. And by the way, those problems can be solved by closed source tools; it’s a safe bet that most of the people drooling over Open Source and requiring it for their tools are not developers and can’t write “Hello World” in C.

SOMEBODY has to be realistic

SOMEBODY has to face the problems head on

SOMEBODY has to take things seriously

SOMEBODY has to stop playing to the peanut gallery

Make sure that somebody is YOU.
