That is why hodlers spend so much time convincing and arguing for it as they need more believers and of course it helps them believe even more the more they repeat their reasons. it is always the same - nothing new. They are in reality trying to convince themselves. I disagree here. I spend time telling others because for the first 9-years I was on your side of the argument. Until I realized I was wrong. Bitcoin doesn't need me proselytizing and convincing one or two people to accept it. It'll continue with, or without me, doing that. I just hope to be able to help someone else realize they were were as wrong as I was - before it's too late to matter. Call it an act of charity. Because the price of BTC, and my net worth, is wholly unimpacted by me convincing you. Edited 3 hours ago by TwoCitiesCapital
wisdom Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago (edited) You are right but I would add the power to tax the best and largest economy- thus all Americans and American businesses support it along with the worlds most powerful military. If these conditions were not met I would be total agreement with you. this was in reference to the comparison with USD. Edited 3 hours ago by wisdom

But I am never as sure as others because I recognize how little I understand and know. to be seen.

To be clear, I am generally not a supporter of tariffs, nor do I think tariffs should have been applied to Canada, (agree re Mexico), but this cavalier attitude of only idiots like tariffs is wrong.
