22 sats \ 3 replies \ @OT 5 Jan \ on: $19 Trillion In Transactions Settled On The Bitcoin Network In 2024 bitcoin
That's a crazy number.... I'd say a lot of that might be sending sats to yourself through upgrading cold storage. Still, even if 1/10th of it is real exchange its amazing that most people still think its a ponzi.
Perhaps half of it could be self to self transfers.
I think most of it must be transfers to settle debts of one kind or another.
Why would people think it is a Ponzi scheme?

I mean just your everyday boomer. They're still saying stuff like it's not backed by anything, greater fool theory etc.
Articles like this should get them thinking a bit through that again. Or to actually get them to spend more than 5 minutes researching. Showing them that it has a 2T market cap and has settled 16T in 2024 is a bit of a wake up call.

Yes, but who is it waking up? Most of the normies are thinking all sorts of things about BTC, none of them good. The propaganda machine of the banksters is working too hard and too well for people to tear the veil away. There has to be some sort of demonstration that cannot be denied, that is in their face for them to wake up.
