The improvement is that you will be able to trade it on your usual broker like any other asset, and dont have to deal with separate "wallets", "exchanges" (which can magically disappear...) and whatnot.

All the big mining operations are run by tptb retard. You can't do what you want with it. You can do what they let you just like everything else.

No one, especially boomers, know what you are talking about.
This is the part where over 10 years the trick boomers into putting their retirement in the shittiest worst tech of all and then crash it with no survivors.

"The essence of BTC"

Let me guess, you got in late and now any chance of getting stupidly rich has been missed

Let the big boys make their money and keep being in it "for the tech"

Where you guys expecting crypto to go mainstream without getting institutional players involved? It's crazy how y'all are still in denial at this point. The smart move would be to find the best way to benefit from the entrance of Institutional players. I've located some institutional grade Defi platforms which I think will play a key role in the onboarding process and pitched my tent in there so I don't get left behind.

Lmao. GPS indeed.
I just know a few metrics that institutional players will be interested in like Improved security, solid liquidity base, flexibility of assets use, regulatory compliance etc. If a platform has been able to create working products that have all of these in place, then it's definitely institutional grade IMO.

The recent V2 launched by Spool meets all of these and more. I think Maker also has solid institutional grade Defi products.
