I looked for traces of Satoshi on the Internet. I've read all of his posts since 2009. He is sublime. If you read his writing, you can feel his passion. I have a little bit of bitcoin. I'm pretty relieved just to have Bitcoin. But if you look back at history.. Yahoo lost to Google. Yahoo was great, but Google was even better. Satoshi gave us a gift called Bitcoin without any greed and went somewhere. The problem is, new geniuses are born all the time, and technology advances. Bitcoin is not physics. It's blockchain technology. Which means that bitcoin is not an immutable law. A better technology than Bitcoin could emerge. What should we do if someone gives us a better system than bitcoin as a gift and leaves? It performs better than Bitcoin, and it even has the perfect decentralization of Bitcoin, which we value highly. Bitcoin was created in 2009, and now it's 2023. Cars made in 2009 cannot be better than cars made in 2023 or later. What if someone with as much genius and passion as Satoshi is creating a system better than Bitcoin?
enough of the what if this or what if that kind of question. What if it doesn't happen? The truth is that change is a normal occurrence and if it makes things easier and provides a better way of doing things, I don't think a wise and reasonable person will close his eyes to such changes. No one is saying because bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency no other cryptocurrency should exist. You should know that there are many altcoins here and there and no one is condemning or wishing it bad but it becomes bad and seriously unnecessary to want to suggest that bitcoin should go into extinction before there is a high probability of a new technology that will replace or become better than bitcoin.
