(even if they think they do)
Now I'm not sure I do understand it.
Talk about a long ways to go!
I think it has something to do with all the probability math in the white paper. Am I on the right track?
Bitcoin is a 2-to-3 innovation.
"How do you get **equal peers** to agree on a fact **by themselves**?
Bitcoin is humanity's 3rd option to the 2 ways we've always sidestepped the problem: warfare/competition, and trust/faith.
The bitcoin network is merely a proof of concept, and the bitcoin token is a happy accident, an implementation detail in the PoC. It just fucking works.
The implecation of solving that problem for the first time (in history at least, can't speak for ancient lost knowledge 😉)...makes the future look very interesting indeed!
and ever.

It is to be expected, in 4,000 years they have not understood gold.
No need to go to Bitcoin, any young person who from the age of 20 renounces fiat money and saves in gold when they retire will be a millionaire, this has always worked and instead they don't.
Why should they understand and accept Bitcoin if they have not done so with gold?

most bitcoin influencers dont self custody lol
😂🤣 ridiculous
I know of bankers that don't understand how fiat works... And nobody understands how Einstein's general relativity allows GPS to work, but hey, if it's cool why not just use it🐸
Likely, the majority is ignorant on any topic. It's amazing that one can operate a democracy in this context.
So true. That's why you need to stay humble. Nobody knows everything about #bitcoin. If you think you do, you need to hang out with more bitcoiners.
The real danger is a long term, coordinated psyop against bitcoin
year 5
still don’t know shit🫡
as i said

I thought I knew everything at least 3 times now and I've been humbled every time I did.
5% is enough
The average person is not your level Gigi. They will never learn.
Nobody understand how TCP/IP works but they all use internet... Including me lol
Doesn’t matter—majorities have always been that way.
But sir, the Bitcoin conference cleared everything up. Mister JD Vance said I must vote Republican in perpetuity bc they really care about me and mi familia. I for one trust them bc Trump has proven to be an amazing free-speech warrior (unless it’s about an ongoing genocide) then you get deported, but totally otherwise all about fReEdoM!!!
For ever ever?
I will never understand how this can be real.
yeah the median sats holdings per human in 2040 will still be 0
It still shocks me how quickly Antonopoulos understood it.
Indeed.
Did he now?
Bitcoin will go to zero.
For ever ever!
