1. No I do not agree with. Is quite vague and generalize.
  2. Sincerely, in Bitcoin is quite hard to size the consensus. I lived the blocksize war and the whole debate and shit... it was a mess, that also could end up badly.
  3. This is linked to the previous point, the "size of the group". In the end is all about how UASF works.
In regards of self-custody... each one will have to discover it by themselves. In the end, will be like shitcoiners, leaving the shit-boat, because slowly they see that Bitcoin is better. And I always have a meme for those:
Bitcoin is not for the weak... only for the brave.

Thank You. I don't even think about thinking of ETFs or other bs. All those that I orange-pilled (all family and some friends, maybe 12 people) are hodling kyc-free in cold storage

If you want bitcoin as a real currency, it needs to be for the brave, for the cowards, for the strong, for the weak, for the smart, for the stupid, for the rich and for the poor.

I want a future where bitcoin is used as a currency. You can't have a currency if only the best of the best use it.

What about the people who can't or who don't wish to learn? Do you not want to see them on the boat? I'm sure more than 90% people will never understand what you intend.

I'm not dismissing your ideas but I want to put my point here. Self custody is way better than custody I understand it for me. But I see people around me and if course you also have, people who for some reason can't use self custody. What about them? How can we take them in Bitcoin? There are still many many people who want easier things. The acceptance rate for easier things is higher!

How can we take them in Bitcoin?
With patience, slowly teaching them. If they will read my guides, their Bitcoin life will be much easier. If they do not want to read... there's always a short answer: HFSP. Life is a choice, chose wisely.
And for those that are rejecting from start Bitcoin I have a better answer...
