Is this legit?

The block size is fine for now, but needs to scale with adoption and better technology.
Without the ability to conduct bank runs, custodians are free to fractionally reserve Bitcoin.
I'm not suggesting to give up on Bitcoin and go all in on monero, but it has a place to challenge complacency and force Bitcoin to be competitive.
The optimistic game theory for Bitcoin is that nation states will preference Bitcoin and suppress privacy coins. Once Bitcoin grows it will strangle the money printer and diminish the power of nation states. The powerful are then the wealth, who will desire privacy to avoid popular uprisings.
The wealthy will desire the rest to be dependent on their banks and resist attempts to increase the block size. The block size could be increased by the majority of nodes and miners reaching consensus, but with a small block reward keeping mining from being profitable, mining could be captured by bankers who run it at a loss to control the network.
This could be Moneros advantage. Tail emissions keep mining profitable. Variable block sizes allow increased transaction throughput allowing bankruns on any custodian. Without a large custodian control the incentives between miners and users are stronger.
Moneros future is to keep Bitcoin accountable. If Bitcoin gets captured and used as a weapon of control, monero will grow as the coin of the people. By the time Bitcoin reacts, it may be too late.
I'm buying Bitcoin for me and some monero for my grandkids.
That's why I like electric cars in principle. Can charge off own solar, can power house for 3 days. Low maintenance (if they can get battery tech right)
I have had allergies to mould, dust mite and grass for years. For a long time I thought it was wheat and dairy, but those things seem to just exasperate rather than be the cause. If you can afford it I recommend desensitisation treatment. It had reduced my symptoms significantly.
Interesting to hear about the fasting (starving in your case) this is something I need to look into.
Yes. I have recently been diagnosed with ADHD at over 40. For me I think it is rejection sensitivity and being very perceptive and analytical and noticing most people are arseholes.

Cashu or any custodian requires users to be able to do a bank run to keep them from running fractional reserves. If the blocks are too small it limits this run and the banks that are required for people unable to afford a utxo can get away with it.
I have a Nativity set from these guys that I bought when I went there a few years ago. I can confirm they are great quality.

There was something Derek Ross posted about one of the old images hosting places going down and taking people's profiles. The pfp would still show for the user if their client cached the file. The strange thing is that I can still see your pfp.
What he means is that Israel owns the banks that control the reserve banks in all countries in the rest of the world. For Israel to fall, it would require the central banks to print their currencies into oblivion, until there is no wealth to extract to fund Israel's defence.

Monero needs more people to get behind it to put pressure on Bitcoin developers and the Bitcoin community. Eventually even the most conservative status Bitcoin holder will adopt improvements to prevent their involvement going to zero
In Bitcoin, you need to be ready to kill your heros.

Both are necessary, you can't get an 'ought' from an 'is'. Philosophy by itself is meaningless.
What we do need is to ensure that governance in religion is aimed at serving the individual rather than those in power. There is a 500 year tradition of Protestant reformation, but this is a constant battle against state interest control. The decentralisation ethic of Bitcoin is equally important in religion.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. To play the devils advocate, why should pleasure be maximised, and for who?
This article explains the is-to-ought fallacy better than I can. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%E2%80%93ought_problem
Deniminations are more akin to Bitcoin developers. The actual faith is akin to Bitcoin. The problems with the mediaeval Catholic church and state capture show the risk of having only one group developing Bitcoin. Having diverse development teams maintains decentralisation and avoids bad incentive structures
