 I understand ODELL's concern.

Bitcoin is unique because it's truly decentralized and its creator just vanished (or perhaps it's even dead), all the other shitcoins that came after are scams or really dubious/sus. So it's not a matter of "build another thing", it's a matter of improve the best we have.

The bigger the institutional adoption, the better, because it means widespread adoption and an alternative to the corrupted system. But at the same time means that more groups of power from the legacy can influence things, and we as an agorist community can't let the centralization win such battle.

Bitcoin need some important tweaks before the inevitable increase in the ossification process indeed. We must gift to the next generations an alternative civilization model, not just a high valuable "asset".

I love the "number goes up" thing, sure, but the alternative BTC can give to us as humanity has no price tag.
