Heres some links for you, understanding the internet and understanding hard money will help fuel your understanding of bitcoin. Get your set of balls, were going in. https://youtu.be/mII9NZ8MMVM?si=dRKI6d2TlgJwZgSf https://youtu.be/rc744Z9IjhY?si=r-ktN1aodSXCJP2F https://youtu.be/15beIVhFqX4?si=LVALcj8uHcf8k9v6 The internet is built of protocols, and that’s exactly what bitcoin is. What is the internet? In·ter·net /ˈin(t)ərˌnet/ noun 1. a global computer network providing a variety of information and communication facilities, consisting of interconnected networks using standardized communication protocols. What is a protocol? a protocol is a set of rules for formatting and processing data. Network protocols are like a common language for computers. The computers within a network may use vastly different software and hardware; however, the use of protocols enables them to communicate with each other regardless. What are the most used protocols for the internet? Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. It is a suite of communication protocols used to interconnect network devices on the internet. TCP/IP is also used as a communications protocol in a private computer network (an intranet or extranet). File Transfer Protocol (FTP) FTP is a client-server protocol, with which a client requests a file and the server supplies it. FTP runs over TCP/IP -- a suite of communications protocols -- and requires a command channel and a data channel to communicate and exchange files, respectively. Clients request files through the command channel and receive access to download, edit and copy the file, among other actions, through the data channel. Internet Protocol (IP) IP functions similarly to a postal service. When users send and receive data from their device, the data gets spliced into packets. Packets are like letters with two IP addresses: one for the sender and one for the recipient. After the packet leaves the sender, it goes to a gateway, like a post office, that directs it in the proper direction. Packets continue to travel through gateways until they reach their destinations. Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) SMTP is the most popular email protocol, is part of the TCP/IP suite and controls how email clients send users' email messages. Email servers use SMTP to send email messages from the client to the email server to the receiving email server. However, SMTP doesn't control how email clients receive messages -- just how clients send messages. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) HTTP is a file sharing protocol that runs over TCP/IP. But HTTP primarily works over web browsers and is commonly recognizable for most users. When a user enters a website domain and aims to access it, HTTP provides the access. HTTP connects to the domain's server and requests the site's HTML, which is the code that structures and displays the page's design. Ethernet Ethernet is a protocol that allows computers (from servers to laptops) to talk to each other over wired networks that use devices like routers, switches and hubs to direct traffic. Ethernet works seamlessly with wireless protocols, too. other important protocols not mentioned here: DNS DHCP POP3 IPv4 OSPF 802.11 (wifi) Bitcoin Value transfer P2P protocol, decentralized flat network, all clients, no servers.

What you’re missing is the fact that Bitcoin is a new monetary technology that is totally separate from the fiat money system, which is already so engrained into society. Even if Bitcoin was just some other really great networked technology that wasn’t supplanting an entrenched societal standard, it would still take many years for global adoption to really catch on. Our modern version of TC/IP was more or less finished in the early 80’s, and yet the internet didn’t really become popular among normal people until the late 90s and 2000s. It wasn’t until the late 2000s that it was becoming quite obvious to everybody how useful the internet was and still is. It took TCP/IP about 20 years, and that was with a human-readable messaging system (email—SMTP, POP, IMAP protocols) present from the very early years, early to mid 80’s. We only got LNURL Lightning addresses just a few years ago, before that Bitcoin was still quite technically challenging and foreign, even for techies. So, combine those things in your mind—an entrenched societal standard (fiat) has to be overcome, inherent limitations in the growth of a network technology, challenging and largely unfinished protocols… … as the guy who’s made the chart of Bitcoin adoption vs TCP/IP adoption, I’m now wondering if it is more appropriate to set the starting date of the comparison to an even earlier year, before TCP/IP was mostly finalized in 1982. There were earlier versions of computer communications protocols even before then, and the TCP/IP protocol I’m sure was drafted probably in the 70s. It might actually be the case that Bitcoin adoption in 2023 is most appropriately compared to the adoption of the internet in, say, 1983, 14 years after ARPANET had two nodes on the network.

All emails are stored on the server. With POP3 you download them on your device and you have the option to delete them from the server, but you don't have to. Nowadays most people use native apps or web clients without POP3 nor IMAP.

Cheers! Thanks for the moon! Maybe I'm wrong but I feel like the financial services firms he invests in are exactly that. Firms he can understand how, as a business, they earn income from services, and how that income translates into the value of it's stock given that a share of stock gives the holder rights to the equity of a corporation. A lot of these protocols though don't give you rights to anything. Bitcoin is just a currency. That being said, a currency isn't the easiest thing to create and manage, let alone a decentralized one that can function as a viable unit of account, unit of exchange, and store or value. ETH isn't a stock and Ethereum, the network, doesn't earn any money. It's the unit of exchange for network services on a decentralized network that executes and records results of smart contracts in a trustless way. I'm not sure that the paradigm he's used to thinking about value in would allow him to see value here. I definitely think there is value in this space. But you have to get rid of the idea of thinking in terms of corporate balance sheets, earnings in dollar (or euros, yen, etc), currencies being joined to a national economy, a company producing something (as opposed to a protocol producing something, etc I think you're right about your comments regarding AOL/Netscape. Though I think we're earlier. I think we're at the stage where I come to you excited about this thing called email. Everything is on a terminal screen that prints out letters line by line. I show you then how to set up an email server, get a computer with a modem, talk to you about POP3 and SMTP protocols, help you understand what your IP address is and what ports your email server uses. Then say "Tadaa!! Now we can send each other messages!" Then you stare at me blankly and ask why on earth we don't just fax each other because I'm the only person you know that uses email, you know countless people with fax machines, and all you have to do is punch in a phone number.

I understand why Bitcoin advocates make a bright line between BTC and everything else is shitcoin - but any oversimplification breaks down at some point. There are plenty of existing and potential future functions in society that can be better served by a distributed ledger programmable token than how that function is served today - and often the Bitcoin network won't be the best solution. I feel like strict Bitcoin maximalism is analogous to someone saying in 1999 "you should only ever use email forever and ever to communicate with only people you know and trust because all these "shit" messenger apps and "shit" online discussion forums are full of scams and disinformation. There's ONE AND ONLY ONE legit online communication protocol and its called SMPT/POP (or if you like, IMAP) and anything else is bullshit." Yes, there's some truth to that, but obviously there's complexity even in the oversimplification. Pure absolute maximalism just isn't how human-technology relationships evolve over time and I think the internet is a perfect, recent, and profound example. Look, I am a Bitcoin proponent. In all-in on Saylor (as much as it makes sense for my individual position in life) and even Lowery. I plan to literally never sell any BTC. But there's a laundry list of things that could get better by developing things currently called "shitcoins" - we just have to learn to filter out the scams and bad ideas and that's indeed a brutal process because it's human.

You're absolutely right. To make an analogy to the Internet were still in the protocol phase where if you want to transfer a file you need to know about FTP, server IP addresses, ports, etc. Want email? Set up a server, know what POP3 and IMAP are, etc. The core foundation of the Internet is TCP/IP. Other protocols were built on top of that but it didn't really even start to become very accessible until the world wide web and web browsers were developed. Even then it was pretty cumbersome and had a pretty steep learning curve for a lot of people. Since then we've seen more and more refinements, web browser wars, search engine wars, and more layers that ultimately lead to greater levels of accessibility. Where are we in crypto? I think we're where the Internet was before the world wide web and web browsers. We're at the stage where most people using these systems are developers, professionals, and geeks. Maybe CEXs are like America Online and Prodigy you could login and go 'online' to use Internet-like services but it was not the Internet. It is not convenient yet. But 5 to 10 years from now things might be looking pretty different.

You know what, I decided to go ahead and respond to this while I'm waiting to digest my breakfast before going for a run > XMR is ASIC resistant. More decentralized by design, mineable by the average person. Mining decentralization is a piece of the puzzle but less important than node distribution. Nodes ultimately decide the nature and identity of the network, not miners. BTC has by far the highest number of user run nodes, and thus the highest degree of decentralization. ASIC resistance forces lower hash-rate and thus lower security. Plus, just [earlier this year](https://www.yahoo.com/video/monero-under-51-attack-threat-182244867.html) XMR was under threat of a 51% attack by a mining pool. Seems like ASIC resistance isn't doing much to prevent centralization of hash rate eh? >Based on... what? I'd say it's inherently less secure since everyone can view your balance at any time. Network security =/= personal security. You can't see someone's total balance as long as they use multiple addresses, which every modern wallet does by default. You have to actively *try* to screw yourself this way these days. >lmao cute, worked out great for Blockbuster Bitcoin is a protocol, not a company. Network effect has indeed worked out great for other protocols like http, TCP/IP, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, etc, each of which has competitors with "better tech" >They've tried (Samurai iirc) and failed so far. Coinjoins work fine but are not ideal. We're seeing more of a push from devs to work on protocol level privacy features but it's early still. There are lots of promising 2nd layer privacy options in development as well >Plus XMR has tail emissions which will prevent transaction fees from skyrocketing like BTC's might when mining rewards expire. I believe that most transactions will occur on higher layers in the future and that the base chain will be reserved for transactions between large entities. Many people in the future will never interact with the base chain at all

When that's over it's gonna fucking POP

bitusher

Bitcoin is a protocol like IMAP, POP3, SMTP, FTP. These protocols due to their network effects are not replaced. Bitcoin is money, and unlike the latest tech gadget, tech fad, or piece of software, Money depends mostly upon network effects, liquidity, stability, acceptance, trust , and security.

SnowFlakeDude

What about POP ( Proof of Pooping) ?

mikatalyst

M2Pro is on a POP consensus, getting only one miner might not be too profitable, because more successful participation on blocks determine your earnings as well, but it's good to start somewhere though. Long term DeFi staking is also another way to accumulate more passive income and turn a deaf ear to the incessant bearish momentum in the market.

Accomplished_Mess116

Honestly still not buying it as progress. And how long would it even last? For staking there are so many other options. I prefer using DEXes like the EGLD one. Staking RIDE there. UFARM for other alts like ORE. SPOOL for lower risk stablecoin pools. And liquidity mining on POP.

Bitcoin IS the innovation... And yes, It's designed to progress/change slowly, methodically and as democratically as possible. As good/sound/simply functional money should. There is no second global internet. Once you understand that, just as we use POP/SMTP for expressing ideas digitally, we can now use the Bitcoin network similarly to express our value (fairly, inclusively, and globally) ... Much like HTTP and TCP/IP ... Bitcoin is a backbone technology that all other projects attempt to emulate yet fail because they aren't as decentralized and we're the OG innovation. As far I'm concerned, every creator of a cryptocurrency after Bitcoin is in essence, an inside trader, they saw the innovation, knew of the benefits/functions and endless growth it would likely adopt, and chose to scam the rest of the world with their "better" gold.

IMAP and POP accounts? CC and BCC? Mime attachments vs other types? Does anyone really know the difference?

Schwanzerfaust

Email is very convoluted indeed. You need to have an account, choose between POP or IMAP. Know what an SMTP server is. Etc. And then there is the spam issue.

Accomplished_Mess116

Really? OCEAN has been around long. Good web 3 utility and partners like ALBT. They also had an MLP on POP a while ago. Yeah, I can see the FOMO kicking in too.

Livid_Yam

POP - proof of pineapples.

Accomplished_Mess116

Good picks. Especially ETH, OCEAN (great web 3 project), MATIC (very good layer 2), ATOM. Also, DAOs like SPOOL especially for staking stablecoins, DEXes like JOE, POP for MLPs.

bzzking

Yes, only a matter of time for LINK to POP! LINK needed staking years ago lol, not sure why it's not out yet! Glad at least they made an announcement about staking.

TrevoltYT

POP goes the weasel

Accomplished_Mess116

Yes. I believe so too. BTC does not seem to be recovering with enough speed at the moment to see a bull market within this year. Maybe 2023, but probably not. The best thing to do now is to utilize your stablecoins to their best ability. Stake them on automated yield aggregators like SPOOL, use platforms like BBANK. Stick to ones that you think are more legitimate. USDC is a good choice. Liquidity mining on platforms like POP is a good way to go. Staking on UFARM. DAOs like AAVE. While we HODL it's important to earn passive income at least until the next halving.

The next big thing in crypto will be around sustainability. The same trend you can see in stocks and ETFs. "Green" and "sustainable" investments are on the rise there as well, and more and more investors prefer this alternative. Also because you can make good profits with it. When it comes to cryptocurrencies, I wouldn't bet on new coins that still use proof of work - it simply consumes too much energy. This is exactly why Ethereum wants to switch to Proof of Stake (even if it will still take some time). Interesting for me are cryptocurrencies that use the Proof of Personhood protocol. As far as I know, that is only Idena (IDNA) so far. POP could be a gamechanger. It consumes much less energy and there is also a real person behind each user. You don't have advantages because of a fast computer or big capital. Low energy consumption, democratic approach and decentralized - all points that I consider important. For this reason I also have an eye on it. If other coins are also dedicated to these topics, I see great potential in such cryptocurrencies.

This has something to do with Trusting Trust attack. See original paper by Ken Thomson: [https://www.cs.cmu.edu/\~rdriley/487/papers/Thompson\_1984\_ReflectionsonTrustingTrust.pdf](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rdriley/487/papers/Thompson_1984_ReflectionsonTrustingTrust.pdf) I.e. let's say you want to run bitcoin. How do you (or even bitcoin developer) know that it's not malicious. First we have to check it's source code and see if there is anything evil there. But even if everything looks fine, computers do not run human code (e.g. written in C or some other language). You need to run your source code past a bunch of tools including compiler. So then the question is how do you trust your bitcoin binary. Maybe your C compiler injected something evil into it. Well, you can look at compiler's source code but then again, you actually run compiler binary and not compiler source code. Maybe your compiler binary tries to detect that it is compiling the compiler and backdoors it. That way backdoor will only be present in binary code and never in source code. You can solve this by bootstrapping. I.e. build everything from as small binary seed as possible. Hopefully small enough that human can go over it and check it manually. **stage0-posix** is a project that starts with 357 byte hex0 binary and 757 byte kaem binary. kaem is a trivial shell, so it can run other commands. hex0 language is basically well commented machine code that can look like `# :_start ; (0x8048054)` `58 # POP_EAX ; Get the number of arguments` `5B # POP_EBX ; Get the program name` `5B # POP_EBX ; Get the actual input name` `B9 00000000 # LOADI32_ECX %0 ; prepare read_only` `BA 00000000 # LOADI32_EDX %0 ; Extra sure` `B8 05000000 # LOADI32_EAX %5 ; the syscall number for open()` `CD80 # INT_80 ; Now open that damn file` `A3 55810408 # STORE32_Absolute32_eax &fin ; Preserve the file pointer we were given` So hex0 converts this type of code into machine code (by stripping out comments and combining hex letters into single byte, e.g. "58" becomes byte with value 0x58). Then it goes on to build more advanced tools, hex1, hex2 and finally a simple macro assembler M0. The next stage is cc\_x86 compiler which is a subset of C compiler written in assembly. Finally stage0-posix builds M2-Planet (subset of C compiler written in C). Finally stage0-posix builds a few useful tools like untar. ungz and sha256sum. **live-bootstrap** builds on top of stage0-posix and keeps building stuff until we reach GNU C compiler and beyond. You can find the components that it builds here [https://github.com/fosslinux/live-bootstrap/blob/master/parts.rst](https://github.com/fosslinux/live-bootstrap/blob/master/parts.rst) All binaries are built reproducibly and always have identical hashes. Now this excludes Trusting Trust type backdoors not just in compiler but also in other tools such as shell, build systems, and other utilities. Except for the OS kernel. Both stage0-posix and live-bootstrap need Linux kernel to run on. So there might still be hidden binary backdoor in the kernel. live-bootstrap rebuilds linux kernel from source at some point in the sequence but it still needs one to begin bootstrapping. Here comes **builder-hex0** project that was recently announced and it is a very small (but also very slow and limited) x86 kernel written in hex0 language and stage0-posix can run on top of it. However, builder-hex0 can only run stage0-posix and can't go much further in bootstrap chain. So right now Linux kernel can not be build via builder-hex0 and Linux kernel still has to be trusted not to include binary backdoors. Still it's a start of kernel bootstrapping even if it's not complete (as the original post might be implying).

In the end 1-3 chains will dominate and rest will live an undeath existence. We use to have Yahoo, Netascape, POP3 mail, etc. Crypto projcets will do the same. Mostly die to few best. Which ones are the best ? No idea. My bet is they are yet to be made.

godofleet

Just a thought i had recently- What if: Bitcoin had instead been called IMP (Internet \[of\] Money Protocol) ... Or any other acronym that describe it similarly to TCP/IP or SMTP/POP ... like these technologies are fundamental to the internet we know - they are possibly some of the most globally valued and valuable software(s) - a phenomena in its own way of our collective progress/technological evolution. Would people have taken it differently, perhaps more seriously if it had been called something else? I guess NGU technology kinda fits this space lol

>Let me preface by stating that because I disagree, does not mean "I don't get it". I'm just saying, what if the heart of your disagreement is actually rooted in not getting it... Again, i mean this respectfully, there's nothing wrong with being ignorant of / misunderstanding something- But I really do think that's the case here- >The OSI model is taught for a reason. Now we're speaking the same language... Bitcoin isn't \[yet\] recognized in OSI - and sure, it's "Layer 5" as the OSI defines but... Consider that perhaps Bitcoin is an entirely new (but undefined) "monetary layer" within the OSI model- [https://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/a-monetary-layer-for-the-internet](https://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/a-monetary-layer-for-the-internet) >You can't compare network/transport protocols to application protocols, and treat them as such, when what you're comparing needs the same protocols you mentioned to even function. I disagree, you can compare apples and oranges, they're both fruit still... lol What I mean is- you can compare/contrast SMTP/POP with Bitcoin ... it's all software/technology. Sure, some of SMTP relies on TCP/IP but back to intellectual honesty - If we're discussing the global adoption of technologies, I think it's perfectly reasonable to compare them and recognize similarities and in particular, their adoption trends and histories ... SMTP/POP supports the expression of ideas over the net, and in this sense, Bitcoin will likely support the expression of value ... for millions it already has/does.
