when no use case is meeting no usability tulips are born

this is a reply to this post r/Bitcoin/comments/ebxv04/another_perspective/

due to being censored / banned at that sub ^^

It’s easy to get caught up in price and get discouraged. If you’re feeling this way, consider a few points:

Is bitcoin working as intended? Here are the current stats.

  • 557s average block time.
  • 1Sat/byte transactions are being confirmed
  • >50% segwit usage
  • Hashrate: 100Eh/s

Do we still have developer interest? Very much so .

  • Lightning network – 34K (public) channels, 859BTC (public) capacity.
  • Taproot
  • Miniscript
  • Schnorr
  • Statechains

How’s the rest of the ecosystem? We now have decentralized and trust-minimized exchange options. Coinjoin pools ...

... though I am nit sø God at coding reddit documents, I will repeat the sniped quote from u/oogally with my personal view as a replacement / comment, and I will end up in a fair table comparing the two major implementations of "BitCoin"

It’s easy to get caught up in price and get discouraged. If you’re feeling this way, consider a few points:

Is bitcoin working as intended? Here are the current stats.

  • 557s average block time. | BLOCKS are FULL !
  • 1Sat/byte transactions are being confirmed | at 14 days ?
  • >50% segwit usage | LøL to chain of signatures ^^
  • Hashrate: 100Eh/s | that is a LøT
  • 0-conf got removed by intention
  • RBF has been implemented by intention

Do we still have developer interest? Very much so [payed by a single which source ... ?] .

  • Lightning network – 34K (public) channels, 859BTC (public) capacity. | LøL, in 18 months® ?
  • Taproot | whatever that is, excuse my limited knowledge ;)
  • Miniscript | what can it do ?
  • Schnorr | nøt at BTC (yet ?)
  • Statechains | driven by Gov. ?
  • Tether over Liquid as a final goal

How’s the rest of the ecosystem? We now have decentralized and trust-minimized exchange options. Coinjoin pools ...

... i will not comment the idea of Coinjoin to censor transactions in this threat here - make a new one ! ^^

~ modifications ref. "BTC" ~

I try to build a table here:

BTC BCH
hashrate 100 EX 3%
price 6666 3%
shills 1000 0.3%
attack vector 5 100
0-conf killed still works
RBF implemented it hurts 0-conf, so a NoGo
segwit pulled off signatures following Satoshi
scripts miniscript cash script
Schnorr Signatures still talking implemented
Token on Chain even Onmi (Tether has left) thousands of SLP tokens, some even with business usecase and dividend payments in BCH
statechains sound like a FakeToshi thing a free decentralized uncensorable global P2P payment network, secured by POW

... excuse my typos, please.

open for a high level discussion,

真
