what is it with those cultish cowboys?

the #ecash hype brought me into #monero 's arms. i'm grateful for that. and i know of many others but they don't admit it publicly. i don't want to be misinterpreted. there's no cynicsm here. i use ecash for small amount transactions myself and it's fun but it did help me understand that scaling is just not possible. you can't solve the trilemma and you don't have to obsessively built everything on bitcoin. with ecash you already moved so far away from bitcoin that bitcoin does basically nothing for you anymore. you now have custodians, middlemen, inflating the supply cap etc. at this point you can just use #monero , seriously.

funny how almost every narrative bitcoiners tell and claim to be unique can be also applied to monero. monero had an anonymous founder, no pre-mine and has proof-of-work. i wonder why NGOs like #HRF are so bitcoin-centrical. sunk cost fallacy?
