putting on my hater hat for one cast: Bitcoin is the worst channel on FC

this thing spawned our whole fucking ecosystem! yet every post is "pump coming" and "ordinals gud"

makes me sad, tbh

fractalist. 

tech lead at Cabin. 

founder of LBRY, Odysee, Vibecamp, @farcon, grin.io

in some sense its doing the job of putting those posts all in one place, so that's good

since we learned that FC is sticky because of the ppl, we'd need to get quality bitcoin ppl/integration here. and that's gonna be hard. FC is tight with eth not btc, and bitcoin's FC is nostr

so im not sure there's much to do

FC is great for eth and i want to read that level of discussion around btc too. but maybe this is just not the place for that, and i should stop whining and leave the btc channel and go try again to find the part of nostr that's interesting to me (i tried before with no success)

pretty sure if you surveyed Farcaster users 75% would say they hold <10% of their portfolio in BTC

hard to get it rolling with a community that is largely not bullish on the project

+1 // context: to me, bitcoin is an asset, there is not much to discuss on there, and there is no big/growing ecosystem to participate it

the best discussion of bitcoin is bitcointalk format, i do think technical and anecdotal conversations can happen, however, bitcoin community is not on farcaster (i am)

Because the Bitcoin community is so stale at this point, especially compared to the heyday of 2014-15 when everyone was excited about getting merchants to adopt it as truly digital *currency*
