Hiii, I'm from Colombia, this is my first post and I'm excited to learn about this Bitcoin world #introductions

He's saying it would be more burdensome to run a Monero node vs a Bitcoin node all things equal. Which is true.

But currently it's not difficult. The hypothetical he is putting forward sounds like a good problem to have (mass opting out) but likely will not ever happen.

My guess is crypto (in the truest sense - not custodians, IOUs, exchanges, ETFs, etc that relinquish it's core value props) will continue growing, but always remain relatively niche since freedom, sovereignty, and privacy are also niche.

I recently fired my training coach (meal and training session planning) and hired an LLM to do the job.

Best trainer I’ve had thus far.

It definitely helps that I’ve probably read around 20 books on physical training for climbers and another ~20 books on sports nutrition, so I can direct the LLM with more precision.

But this is honestly absolutely mind blowing.

My vision of reality is uncomfortable for many, I do not know if I have the truth or not, nobody knows that and truth is often subjective, especially in social facts.

But that discomfort that my opinions create for some, is the clue that brings me closer to a truth as objective as possible.

I'll give you an example, every day I have more and more clear that custody solutions are not bad, since we have no way to scale Bitcoin to everyone, you must accept this type of solutions if or if, the alternative to this is the Fiat that besides being counterfeitable is custody if you use banks.

Now the followers of Monero will come to say that Monero solves this, but they are not able to understand that Monero has sacrificed the decentralization of the base layer in order to be scalable, so everything is already destroyed. If Monero ever becomes popular, no one will be able to run their own nodes, so you will no longer be able to verify transactions by yourself and Monero will end up being a trust system with the old Fiat since there will be no possibility of consensus by the common man.

Also, so-called maximalists will come to criticize escrow solutions, when in fact they are not maximalist because all they want to do is to decide on the people who will not be able to opt for a Lightning channel or to pay for a blockchain transaction if Bitcoin is massively adopted.

Do you want more controversial examples? Because I have many, especially from the second world war 😂

Let’s see if this worked. 🤔
