More on Fedimints and why I think federations are the way to global Bitcoin adoption but it will certainly result in a major clash with tricksters trying to derail those in the BTC/LN ecosystem trying to disrupt the banking system. Note: We are a Beta site for Fedimint - no conflict of interest - Traditional banking has existed for hundreds of years with fractional banks coming later and finally central banks. - In this ecosystem of banking are a myriad of services that banks offer to attract and retain customers. In effect, Banks are custodies of our money and services. - Only in smaller countries will there be a direct CBDC, the risk for a run on a central bank is too great for that to happen here in the US. - JP Morgan, Chase, GS, Mellon, BOA WILL NOT GIVE UP THEIR REVENUE OR THEIR CUSTOMERS WITHOUT A FIGHT! - They only have two choices: Develop their on LN solution or purchase, or acquire current LN start-ups out there. And make no mistake, all of these start ups have EXIT in mind, and that may come in the form of an acquisition - we should be prepared for this and not say they have sold themselves out - It's highly likely that FEDI will have it's greatest impact at the community bank level/credit union arena first here in the US. Outside the US, especially in Guatemala, there are many small regional banks. There are co-ops which would be their target to "sell" their services to. - LN wallets are great, but their needs to be more work on providing anciallary services within a community setting. The community setting, in this case, would be a bank's community of users. - The BIGGEST issue with mass global adoption is custody. Despite what we think as maxis, the vast majority of people aren't going to self custody and a custodial wallet alone has too much risk. So I think the federated model is very appealing.

Great thread from #[0] https://twitter.com/HodlingCarla/status/1629489981939933184?s=20

I think when the rally comes, people are going to flock back to Bitcoin Twitter and say, "Where did everyone go?"
