Sigh...
I met with yet another blockchain, web3, crypto enthusiast yesterday... he works for a software development company that does full stack blockchain development, blah, blah, blah...
But respect, the dude was curious about Ekasi, and made the effort to come to visit, which is awesome!
However, again, he had no idea what lightning is, he operates under the assumption that Bitcoin is too slow for everday transactions, that we need other blockchains to solve that problem, he's entirely unfamiliar with the concept of sats, he thinks only in terms of BTC, he had no idea Bitrefill existed, and he's never bought anything with Bitcoin and was largely unaware that it's possible.
Yet he figured that NFTs could solve loads of problems.
But we had a great conversation, chatted for more than an hour, and he left with a lightning wallet and some sats, ready to start with the basics.
Hyper-bitcoinization has nothing to do with hype.
And everything to do with slow, focused and steady progress.
