Undermining the control enabled by CBDCs is a higher priority than any form of Bitcoin puritanism. Telling people to use a different money is akin to telling them to speak a new language. It requires a lot of mental effort & most won't see the point until it's too late. If we can get them on our infrastructure but still speaking fiat, we keep their options open. People who use CBDCs will be trapped. The point is to promote trap avoidance as much as possible. View quoted note →

I agree with your opinion on CBDC. But the fact that Tether being better than CBDC doesn't make sense to me to be accepted using it instead of Bitcoin. However I deeply understand your long way you did make with Bitcoin. Since that, I do not want to think or conclude that it is impossible to Bitcoin embracing by people. Because I am the poof. And I sure that a lot of peple are like me. That is why I only look and think of Bitcoin, the only way through. Let us not give up hope.

I'm extremely bullish on Bitcoin, I just think it's unfortunately going to be a long game. It is & always will be very easy to exchange tether for BTC. It will not be easy to buy BTC with the CBDC network dollars. There are also lots of people in poorer places, who are on tight day to day budgets, who operate in dollar prices & can't afford a 5 or 10% negative move. Going from 0 to 100% bitcoin is not an option for some people. A way to more efficiently operate in dollars while slowly stacking their way to freedom can be extremely helpful
