Bitcoin isn't currently practical for very small micropayments. Not for things like pay per search or per page view without an aggregating mechanism, not things needing to pay less than 0.01. The dust spam limit is a first try at intentionally trying to prevent overly small micropayments like that. Bitcoin is practical for smaller transactions than are practical with existing payment methods. Small enough to include what you might call the top of the micropayment range. But it doesn't claim to be practical for arbitrarily small micropayments.

BCH was only useful in that it gave us really great examples of how 1 problem + 1 ill conceived "solution" = >2 problems

Gotta love the people who support shitcoins like Monero or Bitcoin Cash. Newsflash! We don't want to just spend economic energy easily, we want to spend BITCOIN easily. We want the best asset in history to be used as a store of value and a unit of account and a medium of exchange ALL IN ONE. Bitcoin is the ONLY asset that grows as fast as it does as a store of value, so it doesn't matter that it's cheaper to send shitcoins because they all go to zero against the best because they AREN'T BITCOIN.

Subsidized by the mint that maintains the spent stack indefinitely. @calle any chance mint operators can announce their decommissioning date before making their mint publicly accessible in future? I would love to see a standard for this emerge..
