Focus on your craft. Live a peaceful life. npub1r0fj5wr200n0dz9nm37ysrhuy8xeg66ratq5hf960q62caaz8e5sqpuzz3 alanbwt The Way. npub1r0fj5wr200n0dz9nm37ysrhuy8xeg66ratq5hf960q62caaz8e5sqpuzz3 alanbwt https://blossom.primal.net/38d00daa0ce1c0a8970b5f0f7b8d8d604e3814cdd02866685485648f554ed5bd.jpg npub1r0fj5wr200n0dz9nm37ysrhuy8xeg66ratq5hf960q62caaz8e5sqpuzz3 alanbwt That’s Alan Watt not Alan Watts with an s.

Not even close. Lightning alone processes over $1B per month in transactions, compared to Monero’s 600K. If you include on-chain, Bitcoin is orders of magnitude higher usage as a medium of exchange. npub1r0fj5wr200n0dz9nm37ysrhuy8xeg66ratq5hf960q62caaz8e5sqpuzz3 alanbwt Yes, the problem is you still need to trade in/out of it, which is when the privacy breaks down. If it cannot create a sufficient circular economy, its future prospects are extremely limited. And for those use cases where privacy is direly needed, there are already a number of ways you can achieve that with Bitcoin. npub1r0fj5wr200n0dz9nm37ysrhuy8xeg66ratq5hf960q62caaz8e5sqpuzz3 alanbwt Monero bros are, broadly speaking, well-intentioned. The problem is they haven’t thought through the game-theoretic outcomes sufficiently. npub1r0fj5wr200n0dz9nm37ysrhuy8xeg66ratq5hf960q62caaz8e5sqpuzz3 alanbwt Save in Bitcoin. Focus on your craft.
