we should be trying to get bitcoin to be the main backed asset for the pegged tokens used in the metaverse, before ethereum takes too much control and become the common currency of web3
Absolutely!
Things like this..
It should be pushed that if you want to do serious/important things, it needs to be done on Bitcoin..
As above, what useful things are you envisaging which should be conducted on bitcoin instead of some shitcoin?
That $30 billion NFT volume is an obvious one..
Just because you think their stupid doesn’t mean it isn’t a huge market..
I think they can be a lot of fun, and then at times when some people want to pay stupid money for them, I sell them..
I think a lot of crypto users talk about NFTs just like nocoiners talk about Bitcoin.. They see a huge profit opportunity slip by so they have to come up with reasons to justify to themselves why they didn’t partake..
So there goes a $30 billion market away from Bitcoin to ETH, and news headlines all over the place for ETH and not Bitcoin..
All that tolken mania in 2017..
Scammy or not that pumped the price of ETH HUGE because of the use case and gas fees..
https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2018/02/19/the-real-problem-with-nocoiners/ what makes a nocoiner a nocoiner is not simply the absence of cryptocurrency from his investment portfolio, but his sanctimonious attitude about it.
people who missed their opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a low price ... and who [are] now bitter at having missed out. The nocoiner takes out his or her bitterness on Bitcoin Hodlers, by constantly claiming that Bitcoin will crash, is a scam, is a bubble, or other types of easily refuted FUD.
In other words, a nocoiner is full of what philosophers call ressentiment, defined by La Wik as "a reassignment of the pain that accompanies a sense of one's own inferiority/failure onto an external scapegoat.
The nocoiner isn't just skeptical or even bearish about bitcoin. He feigns epistemic certainty that it will fail.
A nocoiner doesn’t simply express doubt about the use cases for cryptocurrency – he declares, unequivocally, that there are no use cases at all, in the face of evidence to the contrary.
Now if that doesn’t sound familiar… Hmmmm..
