“Why has #bitcoin not overtaken the USD, the largest and most powerful monetary network in human history, as the most widely demanded medium of exchange, in less than 15 years?” is not quite as insightful or scathing of a question as critics might think.

Rick Rescola, director of security at Morgan Stanley, saved all but 6 of 2700 employees on 9/11 by promptly evacuating them from the WTC despite urges by Port Authority that people remain at their desks. And he did so singing Cornish songs! What a hero. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Resc…

Karađorđe, in today’s world, would undoubtedly be a staunch Bitcoiner - #Bitcoin only. He’d mine it, acquire it, enlighten others, and diligently work on expanding the decentralised network of freedom. He would play his part in the uprising against the unjust current debt based…

The #Bitcoin difficulty adjustment was Satoshi's greatest achievement.

#Bitcoin is the perfect vehicle for generational wealth, but generational wealth cannot persist without actual generations. This interesting thread asks an important question: are we underestimating the amount of reproductive commitment needed to sustain families? I suspect yes.

The higher the price of #bitcoin, the more people are willing to spend it. Few understand this.

.@lopp points out interesting limitations of the language bitcoiners sometimes use to communicate their ideas, but I disagree with his framing and conclusions. I'd argue "inevitability" necessarily implies that more people will want to do more for bitcoin, not less. Here's why:

I think it's always important to sharpen theory and improve communication skills. That said, I do have very strong convictions about #bitcoin's future, to the point it feels inevitable. It is exactly this feeling that motivates me, and many others, to devote so much time to it.

Second, entrepreneurs can capitalize on these expectations by anticipating the future emergence of these equilibria by developing the tools needed to facilitate these trades in the future. Since every spend also involves a buy, these tools will also help onboard new bitcoiners!

#Bitcoin is already the greatest medium of exchange in existence. I am very bullish on this, and I believe that, long-term, the market will continue to reflect this through increased reserve demand. "It might make sense just to get some in case it catches on.” — Satoshi Nakamoto

I think a better way to look at #bitcoin's long-term growth as a medium of exchange, then, is to look at metrics of growing reserve demand. This would includes price, realized market cap, hodl waves, etc.

From this perspective, we can think about spending in a few ways. First, more will come later, as the price finds equilibria for individuals within a broader market of growing demand. We would expect people to give up other goods before their most precious medium of exchange.
