Have fun trying to keep bitcoin decentralized with a blocksize big enough to keep all transactions, no matter what, on chain and with micro fees. This is unfortunately a pipe dream. Bitcoin or any other technology unfortunately deliver this so we are stuck with solutions like blockstream + "let a fee market develop" approach. So until someone comes up with a better idea just deal with it. It's better than centralized nodes.

Bitcoin is as strong as it's user count and monetary status of said ones. At this point that strength is lower than the "interest groups" you're talking about,
so i wouldn't be too optimistic. Atleast not for now that is.

cheers

Only time and mass adoption will tell if these dams will break. Bitcoin has way to go.

It's kind of embarrassing that a supposedly world beating phenomenon is being squabbled over like WoW raid gone wrong. I'm looking to the day where they're an irrelevance.

You mean to say they're actually relevant now?   Huh

The idea that Bitcoin will cause a global economic collapse or that it will seize the power from the mostly unnamed "corrupt elites" is laughable.

A digital currency won't seize the means of production. It has zero chance of changing military hierarchies. A digital currency by itself is incapable of "totally changing the world."

Any advance of cryptocurrencies to seize large %'s of global markets will require old money to get on-board.... more or less rendering the anti-establishment rhetoric impotent.

If BTC goes places then the current crop of overlords will look impossibly quaint and will be rapidly forgotten. It's kind of embarrassing that a supposedly world beating phenomenon is being squabbled over like WoW raid gone wrong. I'm looking to the day where they're an irrelevance.

Peter Rs presentation was very good, but I think that pun about blockstream is completely unnecessary. There's enough bad blood so no need to add more fire to the flames.

Yes, very good presentation. The quote of the century needs to be spread as much as possible. Otherwise the presentation doesn't get the attention it deserves. That's why some people already spread it on other social medias.
