Let me tell you about the block size wars. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

He quotes Saylor "many times" in his thesis. It just keeps getting better. 🀑

If it wasn't obvious, this is an analogy. It is how I see the extraordinary efforts LN advocates to resolve mounting technical issues, while their supporters berate a simple, effective and evolving market solution to the same underlying problem in #Bitcoin (https://nitter.moomoo.me/search?q=%23Bitcoin).

One of my favorite stories is the history of the Longitude Problem. For those who are not familiar, I recommend "Longitude: The True Story of a Lone Genius Who Solved the Greatest Scientific Problem of His Time".

If what you take from this is that I’m promoting Litecoin, or any coin, you are expressing willful ignorance. Maxis and shitcoiners promote coins, ultimately for the same reasons. I don’t ever promote, I explain.

**Response to @evoskuil:**

IMO this is what drives most scaling efforts into things like LN. Yet the market began scaling using altcoins from the very beginning. The OTC/maxi approach to this was to berate \*all of them\* as scams, which is clearly an error.

**Response to @evoskuil:**

The one-true-coin mentality has for a long time created a reality distortion field. This is fundamentally driven by embrace of #Bitcoin (https://nitter.moomoo.me/search?q=%23Bitcoin) as a casino (HODL to get rich). The theory holds that by scaling on one coin, existing owners of the gown get richer.

**Response to @evoskuil:**

There are two ways to look at scaling. Layering is vertical while altcoins are horizontal. Both are tradeoffs in complexity and security. However horizontal scaling solves several problems that cannot be solved through vertical scaling.

You might find yourself surprised to find that #Bitcoin (https://nitter.moomoo.me/search?q=%23Bitcoin) fees are pushing into LN and Litecoin is substituting for Bitcoin. That may be because you follow people for their dietary choices and not actual understanding of economics. Readers of Cryptoeconomics are not surprised.

You replied this why, because you don't know the actual answer to the question?

Guy shows up presumably to tell me I'm wrong about the state creating money. Turns out to be a former Fed employee and an early advocate of "Fedcoin". As if to prove my point. They want you to blame banking. It's not banking, it's the state.

**Response to @evoskuil:**

Central banks (the state) want you to believe this. They offer it repeatedly as the explanation of inflation. You are a dumbass if you fall for it. The Treasury literally prints the money.
