Now two years have passed and bitcoin made incredible progresses in the right direction, while the fiat shitcoins have made horrible steps in hte wrong directions. Don't forget that the US Dollar is not 200 years old, but it is only almost 50 years old. You cannot consider the Dollar before the 1971 in the Gold Standard being the same as the Dollar after the end of Gold Standard, that was actually an hidden default.
So yes, we prety much agree on the 2030 date to state the successfulness of the bitcoin experiment. I just added an appointment in my agenda!
It's actually been three years I think! If you're referring to the non-market related community split of mid 2017, the insistence on doing things the way it went despite all the existential threats from politicking forces. And the patient implementation of scaling measures not being pressured, yeah I gotta agree. Practically everything else just made impatient steps, squirming themselves deeper into the quicksand.
I'm definitely still considering this a (so far successful) experiment. Willing to re-assess that in 2030 too;)
