Well personally I believe that at least 50% of Bitcoin maximalists are so entrenched in their own delusion that even if we set up the perfect onboarding solution for them they would still automatically outright reject it due to generic basic-bitch "shitcoinery" narratives. Then again a lot of Bitcoiners are closeted alt-coiners, and it shows. These people pretend to own no alts and then get mad when their secret holdings lose value. It's honestly pretty comical to watch play out.
Hehehe, well put! Its quite fantastic to watch this on Nostr and now Stacker News. I do get some value from being present there too, but it is Hive that has the real potential for the content I produce I think.
I think its a good thing that bridges exist, but also that they're not hyped too much, its really up to the smartest to move between these "silos" at the right time. Maybe there will be some real merging going on years down the line, what matters the most is that 2-3 or maybe even a handful separate projects reach the network level where they're truly unstoppable long term!
Looking forward to being far more active on Hive the next weeks and months, I think the worst is behind us now :-)
