Sourcenode on Nostr: Have you ever met a bitcoiner who thinks every bitcoin user needs to hold their sats ...
Have you ever met a bitcoiner who thinks every bitcoin user needs to hold their sats on a cold wallet and maintain their private key?
As the technology stands today this is not only unrealistic, it's mathematically impossible.
Being a utopian purist does not help this. There are scaling solutions, but they all require trade-offs. Some of the tech is clunky, but we are making progress with federations, lightning, and ecash.
If you care about bitcoin adoption the process is incremental, not zero to one hundred. Meet people where they are at and show them one step at a time 🤙
