Intersting.... wonder who that “cAPSLOCK” character is throwing out the merits on that post back in the day. 😜
This is hard for people to understand. Bitcoin HAS TO scale on layers. Not only does this mean it scales but it gives humanity the power of choosing different competing models. Lightning, liquid, chaumian ecash, banks, sidechains, drivechains, atomic swaps with things like XMR (aww my maxi card revoked? pfft. Keep it.).
As Hal said, some fractional even? Some wholly backed. Some custodial? Some fully sovereign.
Even, yes, on the base layer.
Trade offs. Trade offs. All the way down.
I hold my keys. I run my nodes.
Always have. Always will.
The revolution is not that you HAVE TO. Its that you CAN.
