@SimplyBitcoin We’ve reached levels of retardation not yet seen before

@danheld Welche Rendite? Was wirft die Rendite ab? Wo kommt das Geld für die Rendite her?

Isn't it interesting that when Bitcoin is critiqued on "first principles" we're told, "Oh, ignore the maxis..." but when criticized for financialization/co-option the response is "That's not what the OGs think!"
Bitcoin is not sound money

Casey@former_earther
@JacobKinge Bullshit you’re mistakenly reading normies and totally missing the real OGs actually responsible for getting Bitcoin to where it is

@Frank_Giustra No need to debate a geriatric who can’t comprehend a digital world

@danheld Get more creative with your dismissals. No imagination.
English

@danheld Sorry, Dan, but no.
Banks, central banks & governments will always choose that which makes them the richest
They don’t care what money is soundest.
They care about their own enrichment.
This will change only when Joe Public forces them to change. Aka revolution.

@danheld Bitcoin can never be money. Too volatile.
It’s a speculative asset.

@stephanlivera @udiWertheimer @OwnNothingBFree Think of all of these things as casino games: - Spot/futures/options trading is craps - NFTs are poker - Yield farming is slots Bitcoin has fewer types of games to play. Remember that people came into Bitcoin bc of speculation. There are less journeys into Bitcoin then.

The reason Saylor has softened his stance on “crypto” is because he realizes that one of many killer apps for $STRC is backing a yield-generating stablecoin that utterly mogs the sustainable yield offered by any stablecoin not backed by Bitcoin. He wants stables backed by $STRC running on every crypto network, accruing value to $MSTR and $BTC.
Like all of us he has done the math behind the question: “what if all of that capital incinerated in cryptocasino / defi bullshit over the last decade had accrued to bitcoin instead?”
And he aims to balance that equation.

@danheld Sorry, I like both, but Gold has thousands of years of history with Kings, Queens, Wars and Central Banks. That will not change overnight.

@danheld It doesn’t matter what I think.
Or what you think.
It matters what the big players think.
Central banks.
Banks.
Governments.

@danheld Each Bitcoin can be divided into fractions, those fractions can be further divided into multiple fractions and it's endless... I.e Bitcoin can continue until infiniti value units....
English

@WolfgangLohmann Nope, that’s an absolute lie. Also deflects from the core supply argument

@danheld Gold properties do not change.
BTC properties have and certainly will again.
With discussions on freezing Satoshi coins and tail emission, which one...

@Mandrik @TheBitcoinConf Started with the rise of Puritan Bitcoiner plebs post 2019/2020 where they started to moralize everything
English

I hung out with bitcoiners the entire time during @TheBitcoinConf.
The people saying there weren't any there are the people who hate to see others enjoying themselves.
What a miserable existence.
