Only reason in fundamentals is in big blocks and little bit fuckery in bitcoin cash to make 51% attacks harder because they dont have enough hashpower so they got attacked before.

It's fine to shill Bitcoin Cash but keep i truthful.

Big blocks are the fundamentals of Bitcoin. The current iteration of Bitcoin is a joke.

Personally I prefer big blocks and on-chain transactions only too.

LN is super complicated and that thus not instill confidence.

Agreed, however, the network - miners, nodes, exchanges, users - has chosen (yes because bitcoin core shilling was stronger) segwit. I can live with that. It's still much preferable to any non-cryptocurrency form of money.

LN doesn't even work well. It's convoluted and will only work for institutions.

The 'market' didn't choose, the market was manipulated. Idk if you were around for the scaling debate in 2015-2016 but it was absolutely identical in tactics to what we saw in the 2016 election. Taking over of forums, buying out mods, mass censorship, smears, astroturfing and forum sliding... the tactics were clearly all figured out at that point and people with infinite money wanted to fuck Bitcoin. And they did.

I can live with that. It's still much preferable to any non-cryptocurrency form of money.

XMR exists, as do a bunch of other projects that aren't a total fucking corrupted joke.
