Yes. Those other things. I'm not saying I approve of that other stuff. I'm saying if you wanted to do "all of the above" (including buy BTC via shit chain) then it makes strategic sense to minimize chain operations and use a single (ethereum) address. Also: I can be a Bitcoin maxi while also accepting that Ethereum isn't a "centrally controlled chain". PoS is inferior to PoW for the purpose of building sound money, but Ethereum is still decentralized.
For liquidity in a bullshit casino where you hope to 10x and then swap back into even more Bitcoin? I'm not saying I recommend it, but it's not a foregone conclusion that it's the root of all evil. You might equally say to Saylor: "why bother with all this equity and dollar shit, just buy Bitcoin with what's in your pockets". This isn't to say that Saylor is the ideal model, but maybe you see my point.
Serious question. What chain does @jack mallers #Strike use for it's #tether integration? #Liquid? #ETH? I honestly don't know. I have LONG noticed we have different standards for our 'heroes'. People who think in polarities (black and white) tend to be bad judges. And full disclosure for those same people... I threw up in my mouth a little when I read about the wBTC purchase. High time preference. High time preference everywhere.
The people lobbying are focused on promoting their own platformsโ€”this is politics. Michael, on the other hand, is simply trying to educate them about Bitcoin, a powerful tool. However, in reality, things arenโ€™t strictly black and white; there are nuances and complexities.
