Indeed.
Bitcoin is defined by the code we choose to run.
As a btc user, I never had the opportunity to chose which code I was going to use.
Using "plug and play" spv or core wallets and trading on centralized exchanges does not make you a "bitcoin user" technically speaking.
So for you someone using electrum and saving his private keys is not a btc user?
What is a btc user then?
He appears to think of a Bitcoin user as a miner, someone who runs a full node, or at least runs some flavor of a core wallet. Do only "kids" run SPV wallets although you can do advanced things like multisig with them, and Satoshi invented the SPV wallet concept for Bitcoin users to use?
I think it's important to be aware of the fact that hdbuck is a fucking idiot.
An angry, bitter idiot, to be precise.
or is good at never breaking character [Fatman says= go figure, when did you buy his account?]
Thx, that clarification is appreciated.
AHAHAH xD
Ok thanks guys, I didn't really understand in what I was not a btc user but everything is much more clear right now ^^
Yes listen to the trolls and forkers here, they surely know what they are talking about.
Bitcoin's point is to remove the middleman, to be your own bank, hence spv, or exchanges are not a technically sound practice within the bitcoin sphere.
Just like using facebook and giving up all your information to Google et al. does not make you a sane internet user.
