The only real threat to Bitcoin is the state, and Luddite morons who actively oppose all improvements to Bitcoin that would help it resist the state because they're mad about jpegs.
It really will be beyond sad and pathetic if what ultimately neuters Bitcoin's ability to resist the state as a truly neutral system is the stupidity of Bitcoiners.
Too many of you view this as a lifestyle brand, a cult, some weird club you're a part of, rather than what it is: a complex system with lots of individual pieces necessary to function correctly as a whole system.
Proof of work has been distorted and twisted away from doing the actual work of UNDERSTANDING into just repeating the same catch phrases and circle jerking others doing the same until youve build a big enough social following to monetize your audience.
Most people in the space don't educate anymore, they build an audience to be captured by their own stupidity and catchphrases. Most people dont actually build anything innovative, they copypasta safe VC approved models.
People aren't so much focused on Bitcoins success as lining their own pockets as fast as possible for their own financial success. Most of this space has been an abomination.
Its not different than partisan politics at this point. No real understanding. No real thought or analysis. Just blindly regurgitating your party's chants and talking points. If things keep going this way, the state will wise up.
They will realize what a dysfunctional shitshow this space is. They will realize what complete morons so many of you are. Then they'll do what they always do. They'll take over narrative control.
Bitcoin is not guaranteed on a silver platter. Make that assumption at your own risk.
