What do you think of the push for layer 2 networks for scaling?
Personally I remember the hash wars of 2017, where factions fought over the Bitcoin block size being permanently capped at 1MB. Unfortunately in my opinion, the bad guys won that battle and now Bitcoin is forever crippled and will probably never reach its full potential. This is why Bitcoin growth has stalled and it became all about HODLing instead of appreciating the art of peer to peer digital commerce. Layer 2 seems to be nothing more than the central bankers attempt to insert themselves back into the mix while making it look like Bitcoin was just fundamentally flawed and they are providing services on top of it so they own the tracking and metadata layer.
I'm still fairly new to the bitcoin space. My orange pill moment was watching the drama with the trucker protests in Canada, and shortly after watching Clif High explain BTC on the Devolution Power Hour. Do you have anywhere you'd recommend that I can read up on the topics you mentioned?
There has been a concerted effort to delete all historical accounts of what happened during the covert BTC takeover so it's almost impossible for new people to learn about but this documentary sums it up very nicely.
