Well, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is an old mantra. Also, why trade the certainty of something that you know works with the uncertainty of something that may not work? Sometimes the devil you know is better than the devil you don’t know.
Also, could we possibly qualify or quantify the alternative? How unlikely is it to work? 50/50? 60/40? And how much better is it? A 1% improvement? 200% improvement? All good things to discuss.
Furthermore, this doesn’t apply to “fiat maxis” because the fiat system DOESN’T work in the first place. We are replacing it with a system that does work, which is bitcoin.
