Thank your for your valuable contribution to the conversation.

Somebody that want to learn about Bitcoin, doesn't come and first post is about how to change Bitcoin or create another shitcoin...
So you literally show us that you have no interest in learning Bitcoin.
I am getting tired of all these shitcoineries.

Lol. You sound a little cynical. Someone actually pointed me to your posts about Bitcoin so I am hoping to learn from you.

Darth is a "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" kind of person. Darth has created lots of educational content, but will certainly make you feel foolish about asking a question, as if you were supposed to know Darth's substack existed by default.
I appreciate all the thoughts and posts, and I believe Darth is more intelligent than most, but can also be quite abrasive to new people who are interested in learning.
I think people should interpret your question as you wanting to understand truly what differentiates BTC in an ever expanding shitcoins universe. He interprets it as pure shitcoinery. His intentionality is good (wants you to be BTC maxi) but he forgets the "love" part of tough love.

Yes is true what you said about my reaction.
The thing is newbies don't have to know my guides, I do not pretend them that.
All newbies if they want to start with bitcoin should read the damn whitepaper. Are just 9 pages, no more no less.
After that is simple:
Only with these 2 page is a huge start that could avoid all this noise with comparing bitcoin with other crap. Is WASTING TIME, for us and for them, that we still have therse endless useless discussions about shitcoineries in 2024, AFTER 14 years of Bitcoin existence!
I will repeat: WE ARE WASTING TIME !
After that, if they really want to go deeper into the rabbit hole, go to my guides.

I don't mean this in a rude way, but if you feel it's a waste of time, then don't waste your time participating. There will be and have been others defending from shitcoinery. This question wasn't about a new person wanting to change BTC or copy it, but instead understand what makes it different.
I think we just have differences of opinions when it comes to education and learning.
If learning is a lifelong endeavor, educating others should be too. Sure everyone can read content posted, but it can be difficult to interpret technical/economic concepts important to BTC at the start. Doesn't help that most people's first intro is via shitcoins casinos like Binance/Coinbase via phone apps where everything is pushed on users. Totally understandable how people end up on the shitcoins train before BTC. Sometimes it's easier to learn via conversations with others and different explanations click with different people.
I just don't think educating someone is a waste of time until they prove it to be.

Darth I think your time may be more valuable than to even be replying to these posts! Thank you for taking the time.

Guess I should have been Luke Skywalker instead of Marv. Honestly, I was just thinking worst case scenario, how could me putting my current funds into this thing potentially screw me over in the long run. I just heard the term No KYC a couple of days ago and realized I have a lot to learn.

NEVER put your money into something you do not understand.
First you read. There are tons of documentation out there.
Then when you really understand what is Bitcoin, start buying.
Then learn more, how to use it, how to improve your knowledge.
Here I explain it, step by step:

That's why we have nowadays so many shitcoins and shitcoiners... because they just jump into "investing" and not reading.

Thank you Darth.
