The government is within the state, basically it would be the group of people who are dedicated to governing, what is happening ??? that those who govern us are those who in turn have a total monopoly on violence and through this they enforce their laws... I don't know if I'm explaining myself well

Ok, we already know that we don't need the state to manage money thanks to #bitcoin and others... why else do you still think a state is necessary ????

I read you and I will try to answer you

Yup, I'm barely use social media, if you check my newsfeed I only post about progress update for lume, and barely talk about other topic.

WE do not think that.

Only retards think that.

People like to gamble, that won‘t stop.

Casinos are working much better than many other industries.

They will work in the future when many ideals have long died.

hilariously bad takes as usual from this clown

Yup we agree on the free market deciding what should or shouldn't succeed. 💯✊🏽

I've had Bitcoin core transactions be as low as a few cents last week! If we can have that as well as l2's that'd be pretty cool!

All in all.

Compared to the problems Bitcoin solves! These are small potatoes but still potatoes! 😂🫡🤙🏽🙏🏽💯✊🏽 #pleb

I like everything you said. I'll need to look more into all of your 5 points to give you a specific response.

As for your first question it makes sense that fees would need to be high enough to incentivize mining profitability. Idk what the exact fee % range should be but miners should of course be rewarded. That makes sense. The free market will figure this out I'm sure.

Yet I don't know enough about all this so I hope more educated people will answer your questions. 🙏🏽

For example I'm not sure if the block space is so low that ordinals or runes need to fill up empty space. Could be true... Could not... I just don't know. I'll take word for now.

During the past bear market many people argued this point and said ordinals helped maintain mining fees by filling up block space or something like that. I guess that could make sense. But yet again. I just don't know.

As for gambling I think people should do whatever they want. It's their money. And like you said. They will probably lose it all unfortunately. I don't gamble but if it's not my money it's not my problem. It's a free market.

As for l2 solutions absolutely. L2's like lightning and liquid or fedimints and all that stuff will most definitely solve third world fee problems.

The problem is that it's hard for most people to get their heads around all of this...

Your right l2's make it easy. But it ain't easy to learn atm.

by the time bitcoiners solved all of this, the fee charges might have already caused a decent of damage to 3rd world people and people living day to day. That's probably the worst of it. I barely started using l2's and I didn't learn it overnight. Imagine someone who has barely learned Bitcoin in El Salvador or Argentina or something.

Idk. Again just learning here like everyone else. I didn't know what runes where until recently.

Great post! You answered my question in the last paragraph. These fees are almost entirely due to the creation, or issuance, of Runes. It would be interesting to see a chart showing the ratio of Runes being issued versus being transferred, or bought. Would exchanging a Rune create the same fee spike as an issuance?

I find it ironic that the same people who primarily complain about inflammatory discussions on topics that are guaranteed to rile people up, tend to be the same types who would show up on MY NOTES, make a statement which usually includes some passive aggressive bullshit or an ad hom, and then refuse to engage further when respectfully challenged.

We know you haven’t formed a complete position you can defend, that’s why you behave this way. Fucking sophists.

Have you seen energy prices as of late.

I see it like this:

What is our purpose or objective?

We want bitcoin to be the world’s money because when the world adopts a hard money, there will be fewer wars, no inflation stealing people’s retirements, and more long-term thinking.

Yes, runes and ordinals create demand for block space, but does that help us further our goal?

What are the pros?

The extra money paid to miners does incentivize more investment in mining and increase the network hashrate. In theory this provides more security to the network.

What are the cons?

It seems these fees are encouraging mining pool centralization through back channel payments (“MEVil”).

Higher fees are preventing people around the world from using bitcoin as money. Transactions for lower value amounts will be delayed or won’t be feasible.

My conclusion

I view these “innovations” as a net negative because I don’t believe these new protocols increase bitcoin’s use as money and I don’t see the benefit to growing the hashrate artificially.

I don't know enough about ordinals or runes to say anything with 💯 certainty.

Whatever is best for Bitcoin core/ Bitcoin network should be prioritized imo.

Yet bitcoin being about rules and not rulers...

if the rules allow it then one can't complain at how the rules are used.

As for the network congestion and high fees... eventually fees work themselves out in the long run probably. Yet I do understand frustrations when fees are super high because there are a bunch of jpegs trying to squeeze into BTC...

So In short... People should do whatever they want if the rules allow it even if I might disagree with the high fees due to runes or ordinals.

I've had to pay high btc fees for things I wasn't involved with for example... Wasn't fun but it's not against the rules.

I hope people try to listen to everyone's concerns! There are people in third world countries trying to make ends meet and then there are ordinals and runes trying to innovative and sometimes just trying to make a quick profit... We should carefully consider our priorities! We are a global network after all! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I look forward to the answers!

power gets cheaper and the hashrate continues to go up

hashrate is nowhere near enough for that (yet)
