My journey in bitcoin was to understand more and more about it. At first I just wanted to speculate with cryptocurrencies (anyone), I fell into cloud mining like hashiny (I lost €40 because the fees went up and I can't withdraw), then a Turkish exchange (sistemkoin) scammed me, then I invested in cardano, btc, eth , bnb... tried Defi, tried NFT games etc. In the end I understood that the only one that really fulfills what I want (and I want to run away from the State and the Central Bank) and that is BTC. The safest thing to date, (preferably to have it in your wallet and not in the exchange, Not your keys not your coins) to see who is the brave one who double spends with all the hashrate and nodes there are.
ETH has a centralized development. I don't like it, the D.A.O. as tezos I don't dislike them, but it's still not BTC. BTC is perfect and on it you have to build smart contracts that allow defi games etc without staining the original network, that is, building on LN, much more scalable. I changed my way of thinking, I want to protect myself from inflation and save in BTC. It is what satisfies me. The rest of the coins will poop when BTC in LN supports Smart Contracts. I don't want to discriminate against RSK but... LN flies.
I still don't understand technical bitcoin, but I understand its security; and so far the transactions that I have carried out, perfect, except for one that was invalidated (I guess they put it in a block that something bad would happen and they invalidated it).
