You should understand the difference between Bitcoin supporters and Latter Day Bitcoin Supporters

Bitcoin supporters:

  • Bitcoin can work as a p2p cash system
  • Bitcoin can scale!
  • Bitcoin supply should remain capped to ~21M
  • Bitcoin needs high transaction volume to succeed
  • Bitcoin needs low fees to remain competitive
  • Bitcoin can be energy efficient if it processes lots of transactions
  • 0-conf is fine for certain payment cases (depends on amount, physical good or not, etc)
  • Infrastructure costs will be low enough over time to enable Bitcoin to scale up on chain as demand increases
  • Blind auction artificial fee market would severely harm or destroy retail adoption
  • Not needing third parties (intermediaries) is a key strength of Bitcoin

Latter Day Bitcoin Supporters:

  • Bitcoin could not work as designed
  • Bitcoin does not scale
  • Bitcoin is a terrible payment system
  • Retail payments is not an interesting use case
  • Bitcoin is supposed to be store of value
  • Bitcoin needs Lightning Network to work
  • Bitcoin is digital gold first and foremost
  • Bitcoin is more decentralized than any other crypto
  • Bitcoin can succeed if people only HODL
  • Bitcoin is not for poor people
  • Bitcoin development is not centralized
  • It's not bad that Bitcoin uses so much energy for very few transactions
  • 0-conf is always insecure
  • Bigger blocks would terminally centralize Bitcoin
  • Lightning Network can scale Bitcoin adoption without big blocks
  • Just use custodial services and don't worry
