 Saylot obviously see “the big idea” as the SoV at 450T and I agree. But he says MoE is worth 10T so how does logic not say that BTC is simply worth the 460? 

Take for example people who want to live 100% on a Bitcoin standard. They have a stack that they have to peel bits off of as a result of converting all their income into BTC. They then spend on their necessities. With Layer 2s doesn’t BTC just eat MoE as well? I know it’s not worth as much as the capital aspect but the majority of people in the world aren’t wealthy enough to build a lot of capital they just want the little money they do earn to not be debased. 

Maybe he would agree with that it’s just not exciting for him but I think the rest of the world would rather go eventually straight to lightning or e cash or whatever later 2 instead of a dollar
