Bitcoin is antisemitic

It sounds like you must Enjoy having Blockstream's  dick shoved down your throat while your paying $100+ to move your coins off an exchange.

Tell your grandma to buy Bitcoin, it's a great investment. I'm sure she will love the part where she has to calculate a priority fee to pay based on the size of her transaction.

For everything else, there's Bitcoin Cash.

What sort of idiot is in bitcoin to spend them in b/s?
It's just you.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

We still do need higher transaction capacity. The only question is how.
DOGE has 10x capacity by having a 1m block time instead of 10, if there was a way to reduce the reward by 10x and decrease the time to 1m that would work - or am I wrong =)

Yeah, because the thousands of people who have disconnected themselves from the banks and from FIAT don't exist.

Legacy Bitcoin has been taken over by corporate interests that want to prevent BTC from scaling, thus removing competition and ensuring their monopolies will continue uncontested. No one is going to want to pay $20, 30, 40, 50$+ fees to make a payment or just to move coins. Thus, Legacy Bitcoin has truly become a Banking Settlement Layer - with fees comparable to a bank wire, and confirmation times comparable to a bank wire. This is Bitcoin now. Enjoy it. It's what you wanted.

So... SW2X futures? Are going to zero, because, it's not going to launch. What about all the traders who already cashed out ... The ones left behind rekt?

"Grandma" just gave her verdict I think. She'd rather pay a $100 transaction fee than take a million dollar capital loss because her store of value got f*d with at the protocol level.

Now you need to stop and the other Alt-coins of the money need to slide. This is what seems to be right now, but let's see how long it will take.

Yes, but that would also lower the required processing power for hostile mining action to a tenth. Also concerns with orphaned blocks and etc which is over my head.

Well would you look at that, Bitcoin is dropping while Alts are once again skyrocketing in value.

If Bitcoin can't scale and can't be used for everyday transactions, then this also diminishes its usefulness as a store of value. Bitcoin becomes primarily an instrument for rich speculators, and little else. Other coins will be used for actual commerce and day to day transactions.

Are you all happy now?

There's about at least 600,000 transactions per day. I used to do hundreds of them every day ... sending to 1dice addresses.
