43k is considered cheap now (compared to the last 2 years)
do you get how this works?
the millions being able to save and price things without gov bonds will regulate all other mechanisms
Gary had to have the courts forcing him. vanguard are still reacting like toddlers.
Wall Street isn't a coordinated monolith with a plan for bitcoin, it's just a bunch of greedy humans letting the trojan horse into another layer, like the rest of us
like a warning or something?
there's a lot of legroom between here and there. many millions of productive people will still be able to afford the fee for a judgement txn if needed
it thats kept only for emergencies (enforce uncooperative coordinator) the fee you'd be willing to risk out of your total capital is much higher
what was the issue? I thought these things are taken care of natively by the UI kit
there's no reason why self custody won't scale to 100s of millions through coin pools
retail normies were never going to buy bitcoin for these prices, unit bias is too powerful over the NPC mind ("if I can't have 1 it's not worth it"). that's why they created ETFs - to bridge the gap from BTC to sats
eventually everyone will be using sats without knowing how they got there, like with all technological shifts
in the meanwhile, bitcoin got some more leeway to improve self custody - tools, payments infra, scale, protocol improvements. the ETFs help to cover up the current embarrassment
if the state don’t protect your money, another mechanism have to. that’s why using bitcoin is expensive
0.1 is the minimum 👍
do your homework. don't throw the baby with the bathwater. bitcoin has always been improving and some proposals make a lot of sense
imagine bitcoin was proof-of-stake and now Larry fink can slash you using boomers savings accounts
if you start to be paranoid about your op-sec it means we're entering crazy times again
do you run an LN node?
I mean federations that already work and you can connect to
there is no need. the fee market is exactly for that and is working great
OTC? what kind of places?
