However use bitcoin as you prefer, neither I am going to convince you nor you are going to convince me, do not waste your time. Satoshi created bitcoin and made a point of saying it on bitcointalk and in his emails to protect us from monetary devaulation, which is a store of value, and on the other hand he also created it to be uncensored money. If you don't accept the duality it's not my problem, I use it for both. If I want to call it digital gold I call it digital gold, because gold was used as a store of value and money. And here ends this stupidly meaningless discussion of what the white paper says or does not say.
When you can define the protocol how you want, change the understanding and underlying structure, then where is this "trustless" system. You can't "trust" a protocol that's changed, soft or hard forks to get back to the original protocol? Yeah I don't want anything with that. nostr:nevent1qqsg2kec9qtas6l9sccs6xjg42qcu84zf3nqejckylyyxzdt2cg7dmgprpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuendwsh8w6t69e3xj730qgs0eac2gh86s9l24qfmnw52xawhz0f3d862yleaetpafygjmanaxlsrqsqqqqqplynpdn
