 Think of how dumb the average person you know is. Then realize 50% of the population is dumber than that (RIP George Carlin).

Unless there is a new development where a retard can hold their private keys without even knowing it, Saylor is right. The majority will never, and probably shouldn’t, hold their own keys. 

This movement is based on ultimate accountability and the majority today doesn’t have that. Sadly, not everyone wants freedom, or is even capable of it. 
 💯 been saying this for quite a while

 No bro nooooo we just need to orange pill them better nooo 
 They are so upset normies don’t hold their values lol 

“What do you mean you don’t want to stamp 24 words on a seed plate? Are you a statist cuck or something?” 
 I don’t even think it’s really that. I think they thought the technical barrier of entry would always exist and they would have more time to stack because of it. They know now that non tech ppl / normal ppl can now stack easily like buying a stock and this price will go up 
 It’s just virtue signaling 
 I... Think I agree with this.  
 It sucks, but I think it’s true. 
 you left beave speechless 
 Yes 
 this generation tries to insist they know the future and tries speak for everyone without asking them more than many generations before it. 
this means either they are smarter than everyone else, or they are just more arrogant. 
 Lots of people are dumb because being dumb has no consequences.  I bet they figure it out after they get hurt. 
 If we based all of your actions on the abilities of the masses capabilities then we would never progress in life and become a stagnant blob of lowering the common denominator until death. 

We build for change, we build for the remnant, we build to raise the bar, we build for those who seek challenges. Lets keep building, for without it, were all dead.

 Holding your own keys isn't really even about technology, but about being able to carry the associated responsibility of having those keys. The majority won't want that.

Some will not be capable, most will not be interested.

As long as there is the backstop of being able to exit, it's perfectly ok for the majority to be on a varying scale of semi-centralized custodial platforms (the more of these the better). This is also the solution for the scaling problem.
