Bitcoin started it all. It’s where I started too over a decade ago, inspired by the vision of a peer to peer electronic cash system. I will always be a bitcoiner. Because it isn’t a binary choice.
Bitcoin the protocol has decided to focus on something specific - store of value. “Digital gold.” And that podium has space for one. Gold is gold. Silver is a commodity.
Everyone else is vying to be infrastructure - the financial layer of the internet.
This is important bc once money becomes cryptography, anyone with access to basic cryptography has access to money, finance, and can participate in a global economy. Capital formation enables talent formation (and vice versa), so expanding buy and sell side markets access is a critical part of positive sum loops that enable human development.
This is the vision that Bitcoin gave us, one which we all seek to push forward.
Always appreciate those that showed the way.
