I was also a small blocker back in the day. in retrospect, enshrining as-small-as-possible-blocksize-forever as Gospel and trying to move everything onto LN immediately was a mistake. The correct thin...

If Roger was so right why hasn’t anyone adopted b cash? Nothing stopping you from buying and promoting his piece of shit fork

I will continue to save and spend in bitcoin because it works.

I have no issues with the trade offs that were made and having a second layer to spend my coins because it would be fucking retarded to use the mainchain to buy coffee like Roger ver wanted everyone to do…

they adopted monero, ethereum, and litecoin. all the transaction volume was on bitcoin at one point and later bitcoin lost most of it. people were already migrating to established networks with preexisting infrastructure before BCH existed. roger was right, they just didn't happen to choose the real...

As nostr:npub1g0atme30l6s65rw6ulq2cqahq9lzmpj0sejhsjcqh0azlyg5cp4qf7gqpz pointed out, if you had all the tx volume on Bitcoin, instead of a half-dozen different chains, you'd need bigger blocks. it works for you and I now because we're the only people using Bitcoin. everyone who isn't a zealot moved...

And I do not believe bitcoin should ossify but also do not think there is any rush to make drastic changes anytime soon. Meanwhile you consistently claim bitcoin is failing or has already failed or was hijacked which is blatantly incorrect

You are arguing that bitcoin failed because it didn’t increase its block size…it did actually increase block size since inception so you are wrong there and I maybe would have a different opinion if blocks were actually full and the mempool wasn’t a ghost town.

Same reason I think the knots people are not serious when they complain about spam when bitcoin has a mechanism to fight spam already (I.e., the fee market)

I suggested you buy the coin that you think is not hijacked instead of continuing to shit on bitcoin

what happened is that the small block narrative took hold, the narrative that you and every maxi for the last many years are so intense about promoting, and everybody pushed to move actual transactions to lightning and so now yes, we don't need a block size increase. because nobody uses Bitcoin. a...

The only person mentioning Monero in this thread is you. so afaict your argument is " Bitcoin works just fine for me. we should just ossify here. " which is a valid opinion people can have.

You have to be kidding me, right?

Go re-read the first line to your response to my post where there was zero mention of monero.

You were the one who referenced monero not me sir. The fact that you did not even realize it exhibits your cognitive dissonance and obsession with pushing your privacy shitcoin while undermining bitcoin

You complain so much about usability when there are plenty of people on here that use bitcoin daily without any issue…

Bitcoin is our only chance to fix the money and it may require monero.

Many of us on here have indicated multiple times that we have no issue with monero but just have no interest or need to use it. Monero bros are insufferable though

Meanwhile you are out here spreading Roger ver’s bullshit…

Got an error trying to zap you

Completely agree regarding the grifters but not sure I necessarily agree that it showed vulnerability.

Think bitcoin is actually pretty strong. despite numerous attacks it is still trading around $70k and is the same exact protocol we all think fixes the money

Love the fear mongering on a Friday morning!

Agree shady shit has been going on and retards are selling their bitcoin but what is the point of posting this?

Just takes one big buyer that is willing to withdraw their coins to blow it all up and reverse this narrative
