There are multiple ways to interpret your question was my point.

For example:
What does bitcoin need that it doesn't have today?

What does bitcoin need in order to continue?

What does bitcoin need in order to attract more adoption?

Your question is a good question, but it's up for interpretation.

Bitcoin doesn't NEED privacy although many might prefer. Bitcoin doesn't need privacy in order to continue. It needs electricity though. 

 I understand. I think over explaining is totally lame though. 😒  

 Over explaining seems to have been necessary in this case. 

 For a baby 

 It's something I see jews do often. They misdirect by defending an irrelevant position. Pretending to be clueless to your direction and intention.  

 I feel like people who have to explain or have things explained in order to understand aren't smart. If we wanna over analyze everything yeah we'll all continue to agree that my question can be interpreted many different ways. Similarly an apple is an amazing, mind blowing thing, but it's also just an apple. Both encompass the same breadth of information.  

 There isn't any over analyzing happening here, the question was too vague to answer without context. Intelligence has nothing to do with it. The smartest person in the world can answer your question correctly and by your response they are not smart. 

 No, smart people will answer and explain simply.  

 By this logic, everything can be deconstructed to a point of nothingness.  

 I guess you can see why the question wasn't constructed very well. 

 Exactly. It needed more for you.  

 Now that I've actually clicked on your npub and looked at the rest of your notes it's more clear. Makes sense. I hope your day gets better. 

 Let's over analyze the obvious to the point of meaninglessness.. yes. Much smart. Big brain.  

 I doubt that's correct.
Basically nobody in the bitcoin community these days is talking about strong privacy.

Even if there was a L2 or whatever built extremely well, if there was any friction at all nobody would use it.
ie, Liquid.

and protocol level privacy will never happen.

so, as things stand right now, the options are either
a useless sidechain,
or a futile discussion about a substantive change to the protocol.

and since privacy is necessary for censorship resistance, its hard to see a path for bitcoin to succeed.
