obviously i have been buying monero for years. and yes, theres a decent argument for the "hijacked" framing the situation. I'm sympathetic that people want an SOV to store their wealth, I do to. but abstracting Bitcoin into higher layers that are inevitably more centralized and kissing Wall Street ass for NGU is a guarantee of regulatory capture. user utility has to be the fundamental use case.

You complain so much about usability when there are plenty of people on here that use bitcoin daily without any issue… Bitcoin is our only chance to fix the money and it may require monero. Many of us on here have indicated multiple times that we have no issue with monero but just have no interest or need to use it. Monero bros are insufferable though Meanwhile you are out here spreading Roger ver’s bullshit…
The only person mentioning Monero in this thread is you. so afaict your argument is " Bitcoin works just fine for me. we should just ossify here. " which is a valid opinion people can have.
