Im not reading that, it doesnt address the debate at hand.

Also I (and thousands of other bitcoiners like me) dont give a fuck about ETFs. We are soft forking in september with bip110 and my best guess is core rebuttles with some change that makes the chains permently split. Get that slop artical out of my face. Thanks.

Prediction: we have a contentious fork later this year. The chains never come back together.

Shitcoin core then has the genius idea to prepare corecoin bitcoin for 'quantum threat'. They blow open block size for larger transaction size + more shitcoining. Nobody pushes back because all the real bitcoiners are running knots and have dumped their shitcoin corecoin bitcoin for the leanest blockchain prioritizing full nodes and future full nodes. Spam on knots bitcoin is next to zero percent. While shitcoin corecoin is 75% filled with inscription and ordinal spam.

After 5 years nodes count is higher on knotscoin and so is price. Until that point im sure shitcoin core will claim victory.

Lets see if im right.

Oh and core takes their version satoshis coins because "bad actors" will "quantum break" his addresses (the justification they spew). Through some form of tax on his sitting addresses.

Im calling you a liar for pretending not to have an opinion.

Is it because you dont want to offend half of your target audience? I dont know and I genuinely dont care what opinion you carry.

All im saying is that you have one. So you should stand on it.

You're essentially calling me a coward for not caring and a grifter for actually using Bitcoin as money for a product I make with my hands. If you think this is a winning strategy for bringing people to your side, good luck. I hope you have a great rest of your evening.

B4 you mock me for calling you an influencer, are you here to sell wine? Or actually see bitcoin succeed in a meaningful way long term? If your too scared to share your opinion the answer is that you're here to sell wine.

If you own bitcoin and/or run a full node you definitely have the right to have an opinion on this.

You are trusting the protocol to carry your life savings into the future. Its no joking matter. You are also volunteering to store the history of the blockchain and broadcast every valid transaction without pay. What is or is not considered a valid transaction has resulting consequences to the longevity of this protocol to effectivly keep your trust to carry your purchasing power into the future. It also directly effects incentives as to how the potocol may be used and proceeding public opinion of said uses.

Claiming your not a technical expert is a cop-out.

Have an opinion and take a stance. Thats exactly why I want a contentious fork to happen. No more fence sitting.

My opinion doesn't change whether the fork goes through or not.

I mock the way (I assume) your aide argues rather than the points on merit. This post is about me not having the technical expertise to have an informed opinion on the matter and you took the opportunity to tell me to grow some balls. I don't have a strong opinion and I don't need to.

If I cared about bip 110 I would hate that people like you were out there ruining the cause with your moralizing, fear, and anger. Bitcoiners probably have the greatest aversion to that way of convincing than any other cohort. We see it and think: "that person is fucking wrong." It is absolutely nu...

Remind normies that there at 63 healthcare and pharmaceutical related companies in the s&p500. Show them they are directly responsible for the parasitical nature of mondern heathcare because they are part owners in the healthcare industry that is profiteering on illness, addiction, and death.

This works on both conservatives and liberals. You just need them to first agree that health care system is fucked and that they have a retirement account in index funds, which they all do.

You now have the moral high ground over them.
