In your post that I quoted, you profiled btc non-believers, from your vantage point, as being either lazy, stupid or arrogant. I merely offered an alternative you may have missed. I thought I was being fairly clear, although I may have overdone it with the mixed metaphors. My apologies.
By calling Bitcoin fairy castles, you're essentially saying that you're putting your entire faith in fiat. You see, if you were smart enough to go through all the steps of first figuring out what properties money needs to have, and then seeing which of these properties fiat money does or doesn't have, and then comparing this to properties of bitcoin, you might actually find something interesting. But as smart as you think you are, you aren't using the scientific method. You've got your mind made up, and no amount of "experimentation" will convince you. You're too scared to prove yourself wrong, so simply too stubborn. But hey, if you think fiat is working just fine, and if you think the government is doing a great job, then carry on being ignorant. But I know you like to bitch about everything that is wrong in the world, and yet you don't want to use your brain cells one bit to realize that it could just be the money that is the problem.
Listen to what you're saying. You clearly stated that you don't want to do the background research, but yet you've somehow come to a conclusion that "it's all weeds" and "fairy castles on white fluffy clouds". How can you come to a reasonable conclusion about BTC without studying it and understanding it first?
Because making something out of nothing is fairy dust, no matter how science-y you make it sound. Therefore, it's non-starter for me; that was my point. But it is a trading vehicle, I will grant you that.
There's your problem. The government is your daddy. Line up for your 10th shot or you don't get your government cheque!
From now on, you have no right to complain about anything the government does. You can't bitch about inflation of anything else because you want to be their puppet.
No, you're thinking of Trump. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/03/trumps-dark-waco-speech-denounced-america.html
Sorry, you've put your full faith into the government. You don't get a say in anything. They tell you what to think and you listen. You after all think that government backed money is the best, so you have to suffer all the negatives that come with this.
