I think the all examples you give are "technically" ready and can be used somehow. Therefore, the "hard" part seems to be that they are high learning costs, reckless, or not usable by the masses. Rece...

To my point, why are learning costs high? Are we saying these problems are categorically UX-hard (in the vein of computational complexity theory)? I'd love to see some formalization of that. I think "bitcoin is good enough, retail is lazy/dumb" might be true, but without probing how easy bitcoin can possibly get, it's equivalent to folding in texas hold'em before we've seen the flop imo.

I think i got your point, probably. But I'd say that "what Bitcoiners need to attack" is kind of "UX-hard" is also rightーChallenge to make it usable on a daily basis while keeping the important principles.

I think these things are hard because self-hosting is hard. Umbrel is probably state of the art on the easy scale but still no normie would touch it

ok im trying to get back into bitcoin content posting but not really sure what people want to read at the moment. what’s one thing i could talk about wrt bitcoin technicals that you’d want to hear...

Most of all, I want to hear why whatever you choose to write about is hard. Why don’t we have p2p mining pools that work well? Why is self custodial lightning hard? Why is lightning liquidity hard? Why are covenants without more op codes hard? Why is privacy hard?

We have a lot of content that’s like “it’ll be amazing when this-cool-thing-thats-theoretical-and-a-decade-away exists” and “this is exactly how this thing works.” I want to know what’s in the way between where we are now and where we want to go.

Write about what Bitcoiners need to attack - not how, but what and why. Layout the unsolved problems without ramming a pet solution down my throat.

bitcoiners believe core controls bitcoin because they want to believe bitcoin can be controlled
