Bitcoin is the TCP/IP of money:

Most people don't get it... even some old "BTC maxis" (well, you sound more like a shitcoiner when you mention MySpace, because shitcoiners think BTC is like MySpace and will be supplanted by alts).

TCP/IP is the foundation of the internet and Tik Tok is an app (Layer 7 on OSI model) that runs on top of it.

What's so hard to understand about the layered approach in IT?

Claiming BTC/LN is not very user-friendly currently is like claiming internet wasn't very user-friendly back in 1991. This argument doesn't hold any water.

YOU lot are claiming BTC is shit hense why YOU lot want people to migrate over to LN

bitcoin is not the myspace. LN is myspace

and as for the whole comparing LN to the internet in 1991.. nope. bitcoin in from day one was able to install and make transactions without headaches. then LN came around 9 years later and caused issues and 6 years after LN has been around LN is still causing issues.

LN has had 6 years to try to improve itself and yet if you OBSERVE your own recruits in this very topic many are saying how crap the UI is and how hard it is to install or migrate between wallets.

if you are a dev and someone told you your software for the last 6 years has been crap and your only response is "wait more years becasue you need to think of the software as something from the early 90's so be patient for a decade"

you are not thinking about whats actually being told to you. you are just trying to be a carpet sweeping ignorant person

get the hint other networks that lock-bridge btc value are more successful than LN. those networks are only a couple years old compared to LN of 6 years. and yet you want to keep pretending that LN is cool and successful.. get the hint already. and stop using your dev groups fake promises of helping bitcoin. when all its doing is delaying bitcoin network evolution
