Can I ask you two questions? I trust your knowledge and honesty. The block size wars were a little before my time, but I read the book. I squarely fall on the small block side, mainly because I consider the security of the main chain primary, and believe speed can be achieved on level 2s when needed, and I like that any little pleb can run his own node cheaply. Putting block size aside, I know you and I agree about Saylor and ETFs.
  1. What do you think is causing this progression to pure NGU philosophy?
  2. Do you think Tucker has a point with this statement?
Does this story seem familiar? Indeed it does. We’ve seen this trajectory in sector after sector. Institutions born and built by ideals are later converted by various forces of power, access, and nefarious intent into something else entirely. We’ve seen this happen to digital tech in particular and the Internet generally, not to mention medicine, public health, science, liberalism, and so much else. The story of Bitcoin follows the same trajectory, a seemingly immaculate conception turned toward a different purpose, and serving again as a reminder that on this side of heaven, there will never be an institution or idea immune to compromise and corruption.

Always keep in mind this:

What do you think is causing this progression to pure NGU philosophy?
This "NgU idea" didn't happen only after Saylor entrance... It was here long before from the beginning. I do not deny it. Is a natural course of action in a free market.
But let's not forget WHY we are here: we are not here for NgU, we are here to destroy the fiat system and get free from debt slavery, having "fuck you" money.
People always forget the essence of Bitcoin:

People that will follow the NgU idea, will be totally REKT.
Do you think Tucker has a point with this statement?
I think Tucker is quite confused now. I always admired him for his clear mind, but now I think his mind is clouded by obscure events that we do not know it.

I really like that meme. I find it ridiculous that Ver now looks to make it a David v Goliath battle with the small blockers as Goliath! Coinbase, all the big miners, etc were on his side. As if he wants to go back to mere peer to peer payments.
