Recap by Tammy AI
The truth is more likely Bitcoin is already a failed project. Due to the complications of acquiring Bitcoin mining rigs, having cheap electricity and the Bitcoin halving is most likely has become increasingly centralized, it's logical that just a few mining cartels control it. Not to mention the software for Bitcoin mining software is centralized and I heard closed source. Bitcoin keeps pushing its meme of being the most centralized I would guess otherwise. I would say Ethereum is more decentralised in many ways.
We all should use BTC just like it is used in Cuba. P2P, that's it. Instead of this, we trade, use centralized exchanges and allow the institutions to overtake Bitcoin. Why? Because we're too greedy. It's a shame.
My gut tells me we have 1 last major bull run coming , and then institutions will get their tentacles around the supply resulting in endless price suppression
I listened to the BLOCKSIZE WAR as an audiobook. It was awesome! The unfolding of events reminded me of the Art of War by Sun Tzu and the actions of rival nation states 🤔
Damn good analysis. I'm over 80yo and one of the believers that Bitcoin, as it should be, is freedom for ALL. Stuff it all you wealthy corps and governments that think otherwise.
It misses a lot. And mostly it was miners and people who used Bitcoin who wanted larger blocks. The idea was/is that you need many transactions in a block to pay miners to keep going. If you have small blocks, it will limit the fees miners receive and eventually cause a lower hash rate and/or more centralized mining (who actually publish the blocks).
@@justice4g yup... you are correct, pretty much everything in this video is wrong, only the starting premise of IF some developers alter the protocol and the miners (actual nodes) run it, that is then altered and hence DIFFERENT protocol, DIFFERENT system and is therefore no longer Bitcoin, is correct... but everything else he said is false. I know it, you know it, because I know, same as me, you know that BTC is not Bitcoin and we know why (because its protocol is changed and very different from Bitcoin protocol) and we know history of it 🙂
BTC simply isn't suitable as a currency. I could walk cash or gold faster than the speed of BTCs settlement system. Lightning adds many security holes to the network which invalidates the "security" aspect of the chain. Ive moved on
05:22 why did increasing the block size jump to increasing the supply? Even Satoshi himself noted that the blocksize limit he put in place was arbitrary and that it should be increased when the need arizes. Satoshi also defined bitcoin as a peer to peer payment system, "purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash"
@@JoyRaptorSource on Satoshi blaming WikiLeaks? I’ve never seen that. He just asked WikiLeaks not to accept it until it hit parity with the US dollar, if I remember correctly.
For Bitcoin to truly thrive by minimizing market manipulation it will be necessary for millions of people buying thousands instead of a dozen big financial institutions buying billions….if 10 million Americans buy $5,000 would be 100 billion $ ….unfortunately I think the ‘big boys’ are going to buy it all up shortly after BTC ETFs are approved
@@geromiuiboxz765 -- yes the *_Big Guys_* gamble with the little guys resources, gold, metals, money, etc... and when they are _too big to fail_ we got a Mexican Stand Off! BTC is already being purchased... not as ramped up as some would like - on all sides, yet it is being purchased by many sharks, dolphins and whales! DCA, VCA ... never go all in. Wait for the dip, then - maybe wait some more. I would think once BTC (and BTC alone) is about equal too or greater "value" than all the estimated gold available for markets, on Earth - then it will be difficult to push around - up or down. BTC will then be digital, verifiable gold - if one wants 100 Satoshis or 10,000 BTC! Then things become interesting. It may not even use SHA-256 ... or it may use _SHA-256++!!_
It doesn't have to. The white paper wasn't the be all end all. Satoshi was working on different things to be built on top of Bitcoin, and those weren't mentioned in the WP either, including payment channels.
So my plan is to build a time machine, go back to 2009, get the bitcoin client, mint as much BTC as possible, get stupid rich in 2017, buy politicians on both sides and get good solid pro retail, pro crypto regulation passed
Where did you get that black bullion display in the background?? I'm looking for something exactly like that for this beautiful BTC bullion I'd like to display.
Hah, glad you seem at least somewhat amused! I'm always wondering how everybody still decides to get up and report on ever more bad news... I certainly appreciate it!
Bigger blocks make a lot of sense. Until you better understand btc and decentralization, then small blocks make alot more sense. I was a bigger block guy before
Try? They will. That has always been the plan. They can't control the head, so they must get a hold of the body. Their approach on the hold matter is pretty smart.
@@BigHotSauceBoss69 I would need someone to do it for me. Maybe can take it to a local computer repair place and ask them if they know anything about it? But who knows. I used to do it all the time back in 2015,16. Thought there was some other ones as well, maybe litecoin?
Bitcoin's great but it wasn't distributed fairly in the beginning. A few who knew about it early on have made billions while others, are fighting to even get 0.001BTC. I wonder if Satashi is still alive and would one day give his 1M BTC to the poor.
Increasing block size from 1mb to 8mb ( or 2mb or 4mb) may have been reasonable, to increase tps but still allow everyone to be a node, but 8gb is ridiculous. BIP 101 should have stopped at the first half of the proposal namely the initial increase.
Brilliant and fascinating discription on the history of Bitcoin. I've been in Bitcoin for over 8 years and have introduced many others. I intend yo continue introducing people.. This is our chance of freedom for our children. Keep up the fight Bitcoiners
26:48 Can anybody explain this in more detail?? Why is it more difficult for institutions to buy up a majority share of PoS coins when crypto is allowed to trade freely. Either way they can just buy the coins they need right?
Nobody owns more than 1% of the total supply, so no... not even several exchanges can effectively manipulate BTC price in a meaningful way. Over 70% of BTC holders are not selling. Don't underestimate the Bitcoin Network or its users.
Ηey Guy, congrats on your work. Any updates regarding how to buy bitcoin via fiat after 01-01-2024 in Binance? Very vague announcement from Binance. Thank you in advance
Same, I have some money in bitcoin but much more in precious metals. Still all in all not a lot of money. I am unfortunately holding mostly cash in a money market fund for the short term interest. I actually like that the best for the time being because it is stress free to a extent. As long as the dollar doesn’t collapse.
Blockchain is on computer. I have a hard time believing once CBDC'S have replaced our paper & coin currency that BITCOIN will be alliwed/permitted on a totally controlled internet. A super black web, could happen?
I have sometimes thought about the idea of Bitcoin 2... Imagine if all the lessons about Bitcoin had been learned and a new/forked version of it could be released that was truly a 'forever algorithm'... Something that was pretty much perfect for freedom loving people, no changes required or possible and absolutely not controllable by institutions and Governments.
But Bitcoin 2 will be heavily attacked now that everyone knows about it. The difficulty will start low and so 51% attacks will happen alot. Unless Bitcoin 2 is some other type of consensus mechanism. That's why Bitcoin has survived because it was launched when nobody knew about it, so nobody attacked it. It's a one shot and will never happen again. You can't get the time back. It's quite brilliant in a sense

Am not surprised the big institutions are taking control as regards ETFs and other regulations........we would be seeing more from next year onwards
But we have Monero.
So why would we care?....
Why don't we fight back by just using Monero instead....
It actually works unlike Bitcoin.
The voting and the power should be by economic nodes. That majorities should be able to afford. And not the few miners.

The OG Btc is still fit for that, as long as it’s secure, nobody cares if it takes 10 mins to finish a transaction
If bitcoin 2 has any shred of success, then it ensures there is no credibility to scarcity, as Bitcoin 3 will be made and so on.
But Bitcoin 2 will be heavily attacked now that everyone knows about it. The difficulty will start low and so 51% attacks will happen alot. Unless Bitcoin 2 is some other type of consensus mechanism.
That's why Bitcoin has survived because it was launched when nobody knew about it, so nobody attacked it. It's a one shot and will never happen again. You can't get the time back. It's quite brilliant in a sense
We already have Bitcoin 2. It's Bitcoin 😅
Great show thank you
Awesome content GUY!
Everyone should understand this history. It’ll set you free.
Yup something is fishy I purchased Btc on Binance and stayed in process for 2 weeks then it failed the process!? Something not right?!
Great episode, brilliant story with the UASF winning with the multi billion party over the fork! Thanks, Guy - top class, as always 🧡
