“The more mainstream Bitcoin becomes, the more compelling the speculative attack will be.”

“Compromising on trustlessness could help the Bitcoin price find a local maximum, at the expense of finding a much higher global maximum.”

“Bitcoin will overtake weak currencies like the dollar through speculative attacks and currency crises, not through the careful evaluation of tech journalists and 'mainstream consumers'.”
