Using the premise that most people use dollars instead of Bitcoin, then ok. Bitcoin is not MoE.
First, we let people acquire bitcoin for its SoV power. Then, over time, people will slowly use it as a MoE. Currently, there are people and companies that use it, so it is purely a matter of time for the whole society to use it.
In truth no. During the days of gold, silver and copper were also used, but later, with the loss of their SoV, they all succumbed to the use of gold as MoE. As I said, it's a matter of calm and time.
I didn't say the only thing that matters is Hodling. I'm saying we're in the SoV moment, that's all.
"Bitcoin is not yet a currency. It's in the store of value phase. It's no use forcing him to be a currency, if he's still at a level prior to that."
You creating solutions for it to be MoE does not mean you are forcing it, you are just anticipating an inevitable need that will appear. Currently, hodler solutions are more used than PoS solutions. This is a fact. Over time, this will reverse. My point, again, is to wait and let bitcoin transform from SoV to MoE.
This is not up to me and yes, it will become like me or not. But I would really like it to become, especially with merchants using LN instead of onchain transactions.
The main post says: SPEND & REPLACE is what we need to be shouting in the fiat + bitcoin convoluted world we currently live in, imo.
I disagree. Swap "need" for "should" and the sentence gets a little better. There are people who want to rush bitcoin so that it becomes UaC soon, but it is not by forcing it to go to the next stages that we will achieve this. First, we need to get everyone on the platform, ensure that society has a consensus at each stage of the process. Gold took almost 2000 years, we won't make it in just 20 years and we shouldn't
*should
