 You're delusional if you think Bitcoin is more adopted than USD 😂 But by your adotion-at-all-costs logic I guess USD wins so let's give up on Bitcoin!

What good is adoption to fight central banks if 99% of Bitcoin users can be traced and also lacks fungibility on the monetary side? 
 Nah I’m saying for the 14 years of existence it’s had absolute great adoption which is why we’re chatting about bitcoin on an app that uses bitcoin 
 Cool, Bitcoin is still a speck compared to USD global adoption. I don't think mass appeal in this moment of time is what makes Bitcoin unique. It has more important properties like p2p, permissionlessness, and self custody. These are the things that make it special and without them it is another paypal.

To be fair you keep talking about Monero too so...

Nostr protocol is agnostic and has nothing to do with Bitcoin. Maybe you mean these particular clients.
