Oof. Has bitcoins ability to send and receive value with censorship resistance changed? The implication that if you sold something for sats in the last two years you’ve been scammed is just insane NGU misinformation. Are the people who use bitcoins network for remittances or cross-boarder business because there’s no better alternative scammed? Are the now many countries @anita has onboarded scammed? She’s built a growing social network that stands on the legs of bitcoin simply working in places where other options just don’t.

That’s all bitcoin has ever promised and that promise has remained unbroken. You’re right, if you were sold bitcoin NGU and the only reason you’re here is for a portfolio application. You got scammed. You’re the fool. These bullshit institutions are just noise and I know, they’re loud as fuck. But it’s just the fucking price man! Bitcoin doesn’t owe you anything or care about your fiat gains and it never will.

if they sat on their sats, believing the Bitcoiner protect-against-debasement story, then yes, they were scammed. If, more likely, they swapped it pretty quickly for local fiat -> local goods and services, less so. (But then those people, in turn got scammed. So I guess I'm saying: yes, have fun staying scammed)
