Hey all ...
I have been around since 2017 or so but never thought of BTC as more than a way to make more Fiat. Now I am actually starting to understand BTC for itself, and not as a mechanism just to make more dollars.
Just finished bitcoin billionaires and am now listening to 'the bitcoin standard' audiobook.
My biggest question : It doesn't seem like BTC is very effective yet at being used as actual money. In the bitcoin standard, at the beginning of the book when he is going through all the different currencies through out history, their primary purpose and function was the ability to be used for buying goods and services. BTC obviously meets many other criterias, and exceeds many such as gold, seashells, usd etc...
From what I can tell BTC is no more usable today than three years ago. What is being done right now to make it more usable? I think the network still clogs easily etc?
Will there be a day when BTC core increases the block size but does it in a way that doesn't create a war in the community like Ver did?
Or are we no longer trying to use BTC as day to day currency and only adopting the 'store of value' narrative?
These are genuine questions and I would appreciate non trolling genuine answers
Thank you
