Go read the whitepaper. Go read the BitcoinTalk.org posts. Go back in time and see that Bitcoin was being used to buy pizzas, alpaca socks, Steam credit, Microsoft purchases, Newegg purchases, it was used at physical stores, and many many more. It isn't propoganda. "Bitcoin: A Peer to Peer Electronic Cash System". It wasn't ever meant to be just stonks numbers go up ponzi.

As for AntMiner, the company name is actually Bitmain, not ANT, Jihan Wu was far from the originator of Bitcoin Cash. They were just the biggest miner and ASIC manufacturer around and Jihan backed BCH but has since then distanced himself publicly from Bitcoin Cash. Bitcoin Cash was FORKED off by Amaury Sechet (who later went on to fork eCash from BCH).

Satoshi mentioned that mining operations would trend toward larger more centralized farms but that doesn't stop anyone from mining in the first place. The issue was blockspace...The issue was that big blocks would prevent people from home running a node to validate the ledger.

Go read the Lightning Network's whitepaper, 133MB blocks are stated. Not to mention the centralization that Lightning brings in it's current state.

It was always supposed to be for all kinds of transactions. What you wrote is literally Theymos and Blockstream propoganda, goal shifting, and misinterpretation.

Segwit fails to appropriately scale, RBF fails because it is a horrible replay feature that prevents 0-conf to be safely used, forcing transaction times to take longer for confirmation blocks. And by design, block times average out to 10 minutes, not 30.

What you're arguing for is a coin that was literally hijacked by the CIA and bankers trying to 2.0 the Babylon black money magic system.

TL;DR Bitcoin Cash was the "brainchild" of ANT - Debunked: It was forked off by Bitmain, bitcoin advocates and activists, along with a handful of developers after the failed XT blocksize increase project.

Pushing the little guy out of the mining space - Debunked: It was about the blocksize, miners were always going to trend into larger farms, as Satoshi indicated in a forum post.

BSV bull, CSW was always low hanging fruit, a tool used by people way above him.

SoV vs MoE - Debunked: The very first line in the whitepaper states that bitcoin was to be peer to peer electronic cash. The digital gold narrative came about well after that.

Context is important here.
