what is so hard about this? Just have a fucking node and use it already. Its almost the year of our Lord 2027 and Bitcoin maxis are telling me to vibe code my own nostr client. If you use Bitcoin or Monero with any frequency, just run a damn node somewhere and use it. what network-level privacy problem? View quoted note →

I keep expecting Monero to return to 150 and .003 BTC. Is this the new normal? Maybe there is something wrong with the thesis that everything trends towards zero versus Bitcoin? Please advise. #bitcoin #monero

Okay, lets talk "scarcity". In the economic sense, scarcity ≠ supply. The supply (number of units) of a thing could be extremely low, but if there isn't *demand, then it isn't scarce. Theres only one of that bored ape NFT, but dont nobody give a fuck so it isn't scarce. Contrariwise, there could be a shit-ton of units but demand could also be insane, making the item extremely scarce. Or the inverse examples of course, high supply with low demand making the item not scarce, or low supply and high demand making it extremely scarce. So we cant look at supply only and there isn't a direct metric to measure "scarcity" afaict. Scarcity is the market interpretation of the relationship between supply and demand of a commodity. What does this have to do with Bitcoin maximalism and how they misunderstand basic economics? I'm glad you asked. If Bitcoin has low demand, the hard cap does nothing to guarantee economic scarcity. In the case of low demand, it is *not scarce* despite having fixed supply. Oppositely, the market could consider a Monero MORE scarce than Bitcoin if demand is increasing faster than the tail emission. #Bitcoin isn't automatically scarce because of fixed supply. #Monero isn't automatically non-scarce because of tail emission.

For the record, I think people should not genocide each other.
