Lightning nodes takes fees away from miners. Blockstream (kikes) have full control over the Lightning network and ironically BTC core. In 20 years Block rewards will be so low, and lightning network will have full adoption that the kikes will have succeeded in taking over BTC.

Without the volume from small transactions, volatility increases, leading to the market being too unstable for transactions with large amounts of bitcoin. You can buy $100k bitcoin, then it drops 2-3$ and you lost a shit ton of money. You NEED the volume from the small transactions for liquidity.

There's just one scenario in which it makes sense to spend crypto for day-to-day purchases, if you're an investor who got lucky and got a excess stash of bitcoins that you can't/don't want to redeem in other ways.

The thing is, most normies are shitty investors. Why THE FUCK would they care to spend bitcoin at stores for damn groceries when they just bought it with fiat? No wonder that merchant adoption has been a weak selling point by far.

That use to not be an issue. Thanks Corecucks! It's no matter. Even without BTC completely shitting the bed payments would have still been the low end usecase, at least at first. Transactions on SV are almost entirely push data and the rate of transactions onchain is growing exponentially.

By the time most normalfags are using Bitcoin for payments, it'll have been doing else in the background for years.

Yeah, it was not an issue in the early days of bitcoin when EVERY NECKBEARD WAS A MINER and produced his own bitcoins, why do you fail to understand that? These days are long gone. Every normie has to buy bitcoin with fiat first, why would he want to spend it on shitty groceries and coffee? He wouldn't because it makes no sense.

I spend crypto all the time. It's great, you often get discounts and I don't have to put credit card info up. It's simpler in general. Why the fuck wouldn't you spend it? It's not like you can't buy more.

Also that isn't what I was talking about. Merchants like Steam had to drop BTC because shit throughput and insanely high fees. No business can use BTC in any serious matter.

First, merchants take a mark-up on crypto (they have to) so that it costs slightly more than if you immediately sold crypto for fiat.

Second, only profitable investors are interested in spending crypto (maybe some cypherpunk nerds too). Spending crypto profits from their stack, to be precise. Most normies are not investors, not traders, in fact, they're absolutely terrible investors and traders and they've got no "crypto profits" to spend. So they have absolutely NO fucking reason to spend crypto on trivial daily purchases because they have no profit in the first place. It has zero value proposition.

Hodl and bypassing capital controls is unironically the main normie use case by far.

>merchants take a mark-up on crypto
Care to expand on that? Because the fees on Bitcoin SV are less than a penny. Credit cards are 3% markup.

Spending has nothing to do with profits. Again, just spend and buy more. There's no logic in what you're saying and taken to its logical conclusion you shouldn't spend fiat unless its to buy more hodl coins with your magical crypto friends.

>Care to expand on that?
Merchants have to convert crypto to fiat (or even do in on the fly). As a result, they charge you payment processor fees, or a markup to hedge against immediate volatility. In the end, it's the same as with Visa or more.

>Spending has nothing to do with profits. Again, just spend and buy more.
This approach is for nerds, not normies. Normies couldn't care less about crypto for the sake of crypto.

Bitpay charges 1% fee, so no. People who accept it directly aren't covering anything. If they must cover for fiat they'll use a payment processor like Bitpay. Cheaper, faster, more secure and easier than entering credit card info. It's optimal.

Still I'll give it to you that most people in crypto don't use it. Many have probably never even used a wallet, maybe even most. They just keep it on an exchange. Luckily these idiots were never going to drive the tech forward anyway. As I said earlier, the bulk of transactions will probably always be push data. Bitcoin will be running things in people's lives before they ever use it directly themselves.
