Anyway to me it's very clear. When BTC got popular people quickly saw that it could never work as a global payment system since it didn't scale. People sometimes say "yeah but LN is going to solve that", well LN is a joke like I've pointed out several times and will never work.

You didn't point out anything other than your own flawed narrative that's heavily centered against Bitcoin and its second layer.

Bitcoin payments keep going down, nobody pays with bitcoin anymore. In fact, sure, you can pay at some online stores like newegg.com with bitcoin but you should see the exchange rate, it's actually several percent more expensive to pay with BTC than with dollars so why the hell would that ever become popular?

How do you know Bitcoin payments are going down other than the obvious assumption that the bear market is heavily pressing down anything related to crypto? Bitcoin's on-chain transactions are going up despite services heavily batching transactions, meaning, we're going through a healthy dose of growth.

Purse.IO offers people discounts up to 30% when they use Bitcoin. Not bad ha?

Bitcoin is dead, smart people like me saw that and have been shorting btc the past year. And I'm still short, this thing will go below $1000 pretty soon. Big money is shorting/selling all upticks like we've seen, it keeps below $4400 and every hope will get sold again. The SEC will shoot down those crazy ETF plans soon, that will be the first big tank and then it will continue its slow death again.

You sure you aren't a sore altcoin loser? Bitcoin down means altcoins down as well, must be hard for you. Roll Eyes
