I think many of us overestimated its development status when -almost half a year ago- thought it be the final push into mainstream readiness for Bitcoin.

We tried to tell you... and were soundly excoriated for it.

At the same time, maybe also underestimated the rate of new users/investors that were to come in the following months.

We tried to...


Ok, you sure have a point there. But you guys are wrong in that *just* a blocksize increase is an scalable solution. It isn't. It is the equivalent of increasing the diameter of single disk hard drives instead of increasing the density (segwit) and adding multiple platters and heads (additional layers, LN) as an scalable solution.

You know very well what the industry chose.... otherwise we would have ended with hard drives that couldn't even fit in a desk.

And that's from a tech side... from a "marketing" perspective... Do you really think trying to destroy confidence in the main cryptocurrency as a store of value would do any good in the long run trust over *ANY* cryptocurrencies?

REALLY?

Explain how I can securely send gold or silver across the world for payment without any friction/transaction fee or middleman to have to trust, or GTFOOH you idiot.

I can explain that easily.  Have you ever noticed that systems like Steam the game platform don't let you resell games you buy?  Probably because it would turn it's customers into competitors.  Why?  Because their model is based around the scam of pretending intellectual property has scarcity when it doesn't.  When you remove the artificial scarcity, their business collapses.  

What the fuck is bitcoin?  Absolutely nothing but the same artificial scarcity scam.  You're buying into a con and pretending artificial scarcity has value just like on Steam (unless your goal was to donate money to the game developer instead of participate in functional economics).  The lesson from Steam is that wealth does not exist in the digital world.  Everything digital is inherently valueless because it doesn't have scarcity.

The answer is, you cannot send "money" digitally because money and wealth does not exist digitally.  The only thing you can send digitally are...IOUs.

Lol. Not only did you NOT answer my question, you redirected it toward complete garbage. Classic straw man fallacy response.

You need to go back to Troll school. They don't even teach this stupid tactic anymore because people see right through it.

No, I answered it perfectly fine.

No you didn't.

ANSWER. THE. FUCKING. QUESTION. IN. BOLD. ABOVE. OR. GTFO.

Yes, we all know anyone who doesn't think imaginary, valueless 0's and 1's should be the world reserve currency over physical metals is a "troll".  In before a teenage girl or 20 year old asian claims that reality exists only inside of an iphone and everything outside of it is not real.

That was the opposite of well said.  He didn't explain ANYTHING about how LN is going to solve any of the problems I listed in the quote below.  Bitcoin is a god damn cult of idiots, I swear.  Look at this sirazimuth's guy signature for fucks sake:

"Bitcoin...the future of all monetary transactions...and always will be"

That looks like it was written by a 3 year old.  No reasoning, no nothing.  Just "buy my centralized pump and dump scheme because ...I dunno!"

Explain how I can securely send gold or silver across the world for payment without any friction/transaction fee or middleman to have to trust, or GTFOOH you idiot.

You cannot securely or insecurely transfer any quantity of information across the world for payment or any other purpose without friction, transaction fees, middlemen, gravity, thermodynamics and other things alike which are part of how reality works. The same reality that has been developing for billions of years in which you and I are just one infinitesimal part.

Bitcoin is not a perpetual machine. You are buying into the illusion sold to you by the ones who want to enslave, at best, you and your descendants.

You are not your own bank when your mining cannot in any way influence a proof of work system.

You are not your own bank when your storage of bitcoin depends always upon third parties to continue on doing immense amounts of proof of work to keep it safe. Do you think they will always be happy with just fees and block rewards?

You could never securely send bitcoin across the world without any friction/transaction fee or middlemen. Friction was always there, transaction fees were always there and miners, ISPs, Operating Systems, computer hardware architectures, were all there as middlemen all along.

I'm done. By confronting the troll directly and him not directly answering my question, I think anyone else reading this thread will understand that he's just wasting people's time.

But I ask you this then in return, why has he not been perma-banned from the WO thread? Or at least his posts deleted, if we ALL can agree that he's just a troll? Why should we all suffer this idiot whilst he constantly spams the WO thread with his drivel?

The answer is, you cannot send "money" digitally because money and wealth does not exist digitally.  The only thing you can send digitally are...IOUs....or valueless 0's and 1's, pick one.


Intellectual Property has scarcity. What has very limited scarcity is the ability to copy digital IP and by getting highly educated users to rent it in a way they cannot copy it works great as a way to keep charging fees for artificially scarce copying ability. The same is true for Netflix and others.

Everything is asymptotic. The closest to money and wealth commoners ever experience is the shadow on the wall of the cave projected by the owners. Whether it is in the form of taxed land, state currencies, company stocks or a heavily regulated productive business, they are all allowed to exist by the grace of the owners. Consequently, land, businesses, stocks, currency, digital or otherwise, are the truest form of money and wealth the vast majority of people anywhere will ever experience or even understand as such.

Of course you want anyone banned that isn't hyping your pump and dump.  You don't give a shit about objective reality, only personal gain.  Same with most other sub-human scammers in this thread.  I explained to you why you cannot send money over the internet with no middleman, only IOUs, but that's not beneficial to your pump and dump so you claim it's "trolling".  Nice job pretending a second person didn't explain it to you either (no, that guy is not me):

You cannot securely or insecurely transfer any quantity of information across the world for payment or any other purpose without friction, transaction fees, middlemen, gravity, thermodynamics and other things alike which are part of how reality works.

You've been here a long time.  You should remember how the phrase "bag holder" was used CONSTANTLY for years in a row on this thread.  That phrase mysteriously went extinct.  Everything is cyclical.  I have a feeling you are going to start seeing that phrase a lot more again.  Even the nonsensical, exponential TA fool you people worship named "Masterluc" said it was going to $10k.  Who the fuck would buy and hold at $15k???
