nothing else matters at this point

you can play politics all your life then your society is fundamentally redefined by technology.

The future of politics, culture and society will be defined by AI and Bitcoin not the other way around.

AI no one knows how it will go down.

Bitcoin we know exactly how it will go down.

Bitcoin is simply money. It's a fully synthetic digital commodity with a hard supply cap and decentralized network.

It's a technology. It's just meant to hold value. This might seem like the simplest and plain dumb utility but that's exactly what it is and why it's perfect. Gold is just a store of value that has some industrial utility. That's not a good thing. Perfect money has no other use other than money. Money is the one thing you have not for its own sake but to trade for other things.

When gold ends up in someone's tooth or inside a computer you effectively re-buried your gold and you have to spend money to mine it again(recycle). This is not a good thing.

Bitcoin is just money, digital and running on the internet in a decentralized permission less network. The software it all open-source. It's a miracle. It's a one time event and discovery of digital scarcity.

NO. Your favorite alt coin is not needed or scarce or a digital store of value. They are more like tech stocks. Bitcoin is the one asset.

Anyone can and many have tried to just copy Bitcoin. It's all available however they have all ultimately failed. When someone copies(forks) the network you retain your coins and you get duplicate coins/wallets with the same addresses and passphrase in the new network. So you can simply hold both or do what most people do and sell the new fork and buy bitcoin.

it is needed tho

maybe but 90% of the things built on blockchain are centralized and could be run cheaper and more efficiently on traditional databases and servers. It's just an illusion of decentralization.

There's only a few coins really decentralized and they all have very serious compromises and issues considered by Bitcoiners many years ago and rejected. Like Monero for example. That's not to say they have zero value or have no future.
I support Monero and I think it has a future albeit it will be probably limited by its fundamentals both technical and also social

Bitcoin is also centralized.
all the mining is centralized in a handful of miningpools, there arent all that many ASIC producers and most of the BTC is already in the hands of a few jews.

incorrect. miners do not control the network. It's the validator nodes there are 23, 224 nodes and 65% of them are behind tor

Also the concentration of coins in a few hands is overstated. There are dollar and gold whales as well the difference is with Bitcoin they all earned their coins or mined them and all they can do with them is give them away for goods and services or invest in businesses. Its very different than having a ton of dollars which just gets you more dollars or ETH which you can stake and get more ETH from the network basically for free and also you can run more nodes the more ETH you have which give you more power over the network.

With bitcoin anyone can run a node for very little money.

stop spreading FUD

>miners do not control the network
they do tho, without miners the network becomes useless.
and you can bet your ass that the other nodes are owned by the same few actors.

>Also the concentration of coins in a few hands is overstated.
no its not, its mostly owned by jews, jew owned centralized exchanges and other jewish business like Blackrock or Microstrategy and they keep buying more.
