“I forgot my bank password and lost my entire net worth. No, actually, that didn’t happen, because banks work and bitcoin doesn’t.”
This is the Jimmy Wales statement that sparked the whole conversation. His tweet back in 2014 suggested that he bought Bitcoin and might have lost his keys which shows he can't be reliable to protect his own assets
I liked btc sessions' reply. Very pertinent.
There was this one time when a bank person misunderstood me on the phone and closed my account stealing thousands of dollars of my hard earned money.
Banking doesn't work.
It took a month but I got my money back but really... I've never been the same. Bitcoin works just fine. Only I can screw myself with bitcoin.
Good article for those who can't follow the thread on X/twitter
