Great idea for a general, maxi here.
To me, maxi means that there’s only room for one base layer, store of value crypto currency, and that is bitcoin (btc), not just because it was first but because it is perfect.
That said, by saying I’m a btc maxi, I’m obviously not against other layers on top, addressing other use cases. I’m not against lightning. I’m not against some derivative fund investing in btc. I’m not against someone building a successful e-commerce site on top of bitcoin.
In the same way I’m not against a smart contract layer on top of bitcoin. If this layer is eth or something else remains to be seen, but currently eth seems to have the upper hand. Good on Vitalik.
Similarly, I’m all for another layer of Oracles feeding the smart contracts, and here I have to say I’m really rooting for Sergey - I can’t help but like the guy! And I think Chainlink is making all the right moves. Investing in Chainlink is more like investing in a company than investing in btc, which is investing in math, but it’s nevertheless an attractive, smart company in my opinion, better than tesla and with a better share model (link tokens, which are like shares that can be used for something).
So I’m 80% btc, 10% eth (a little reluctantly) and 10% link (happily), am I correct in still thinking myself a btc maxi?
I mean, I also have tesla shares.
