hello

This is exactly why we need sound money like Bitcoin. The traditional banking system is full of these hidden, rent-seeking mechanisms. Credit card rewards aren't "free money"; they are just marketing tricks funded by the fees they charge merchants. With Bitcoin and the Lightning Network, transactions are direct, transparent, and don't require middlemen skimming off the top to pay for our "rewards."

I think Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom money in theory, but the infrastructure for spending it freely is still catching up. Holding it as a store of value is easy, but using it for daily transactions without KYC or high fees can be tough. The Lightning Network is solving a lot of this, but mass adoption is still the biggest hurdle. It's a journey, but we are definitely on the right track! What do you think is the fastest way to onboard normal people?
