What about Bitcoin Lightning? “Inspirational, but it’s not going to displace Apple or Alipay,”
TRIGGER WARNING @ODELL
That last line.... "We can either complain and rail against the inevitable, or shut up and take their money."
That appears to be a comment by the author rather than made by Saylor.
Yes, that's her takeaway
It sucks that most people still believe this is about the money. I admit I started there too. Eventually I realized that it was about the freedom.
Clearly she's party of the fiatgoup crowd
I agree with most of that. We should debate the issues rather than attacking the person.

Someone please tell BTC Times to post directly on Nostr instead of sending us to their website.

I don’t know what’s going on right now — everything is so convoluted to me. I miss the good old days when our only foe was Peter Schiff espousing the virtues of gold. And, it was a collective effort on behalf of the entire Bitcoin community to silence him, ever so politely, each morning without fail. We coexisted peacefully with eth. Doge wasn’t a thing yet. And we were all baffled and amused and then disgusted with nft’s. It seems like right after Bitcoin surpassed the 50K threshold it all turned really bizarre to me. Bitcoin itself is still hope though.☀️🌬️🌹🍃✨💋🦁🫂❤️🔥 https://image.nostr.build/94e835580622f79a68df39473a917cb1ef05c447b8b6f45efd9f3240e8c5d512.jpg
"Bitcoin satellites and fireproof hardware wallets don’t resonate with professional wealth managers." LOL I GIVE NO FUCK ABOUT WHAT wEaLtH MaNaGeRs SAY The way that the article suggests that the protocol's adoption depends on institutional investment is very insidious
I tend to think about a Greg Glassman quote: "Crossfit isn't for everyone, but its for anyone" Bitcoin isn't for everyone, its for anyone
Agreed. These fractional reserve maxis will learn the hard way
what a moron. lol
How relevant. Again @saylor making contradictory statements. He needs to go back and read the white paper re: how/why/what Bitcoin was designed for. The things he suggests are the very things that will turn Bitcoin it into just another monopolized/institutionalized currency which will be controlled by only the top dogs, empowering themselves and nobody else. At this point he clearly is in it for his own gain, and not the empowerment of the "people."
"...wealthy investors don’t want to antagonize the State." -michael saylor And whales will do whatever they are told.
At end of her article Elaine Ou warned us "Maybe it’s a fact of life that anything cool and subversive is eventually co-opted by corporate interests, from punk rock to cypherpunk. There’s a never-ending search for the next disruptive thing. We can either complain and rail against the inevitable, or shut up and take their money."
