 finite scarcity (21M), proof-of-work and no CEO should be a good enough start to make the difference between the two.

 Wait signal to noise ratios are used with Bitcoin ?! I thought it was just used in acoustics 🤯

 The word privacy appears 1x in that article, in a quote from somebody else.

Seriously i can not take any Bitcoiner serious who does not address this issue.

 Does not convince me at all, sorry. The user experience is just super terrible and leaves a lot of room for mistakes along the process which would undo all privacy.

Missing privacy and fungibility in BTC is making it useless as money and when every government can see your net worth, it will also turn out to be a crappy store of value in the end. 

It is sad but it is obvious.
