Ps... TCP IS the best for the Internet. These are not analogous

#Bitcoin was always great ;). I don't think any other#blockchain will ever come nearly as close. -
for me
#Bitcoin stopped being great when i can’t move my low balance BTC address because the fees are higher than the balance. but hey, maybe with#LightningNetwork i can move those BTC again
-
Yep, that's sadly a byproduct of what happens when moronic marketing people sell dreams to others without understanding limitations and implications of the underlying technology. It's not so much bitcoin no longer being great, it's more to do with properly scaling the technology.
-
there’s nothing moronic about leaving small balances of BTC in addresses that I’ve used in 2013 when Bitcoin used to work with small balances. heck i even sent small amounts of Bitcoin to friends as a gift for Christmas to demonstrate how awesome it was. can’t do that now.
-
Yes, because our blocks were empty back in 2013. You can still do that with just about any other coin. You can't in
#Bitcoin now, because bitcoin is too big and we're hitting scaling limitations of blockchains. Blockchains are absolutely shitty platforms to transmit data on. -
That's exactly what I try to show in my article, why blockchains suck for transferring data and why unicast transactions on lightning and other L2 layers are the *correct* way to scale. Blockchains are only good at creating digital assets and providing immutable/underlying proof
-
maybe layer 2 is the correct way to scale Bitcoin. but other protocols have different consensus mechanism that scale vastly greater than Bitcoin. i.e. Steemit, BitShares, and soon
$EOS.@bytemaster7 has proven that DPoS works at scale better than PoW. so bring on the competition!
