Again. Does the law say:

"You need to spend your bitcoin to increase adoption?"

If not, you used the law wrong. You just abused it for your own purposes.

it's harder to increase the number of "connected users" if current users have the high averse to spending...

I think you misinterpret what this law says. Does the law say:

"You need to spend your bitcoin to increase adoption?"

To my understanding, no, it doesn't. All it says is this:

> Metcalfe's law states that the financial value or impact of a telecommunications network is proportional to the square of the number of connected users of the system (n^2).

-- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metcalfe%27s_law

That's it. Nothing about _what_ increases adoption.

HODL is obsolete. Hodl by SPEND & REPLACE - must be the new bitcoiners MANTRA

> Bitcoin holders are highly averse to spending

let them understand this simple Metcalfe's law, at last... ;)
