People love to shit on petermccormack (npub14mc…frlx) but he's a reasonable representation of everyday people that will come into Bitcoin. He doesn't blindly swallow everything because of ultra conviction. Seems like he is genuinely trying to rationalise in his head how this movement integrates with the realities of this world and how normal people don't give a fuck about most things we do.
As much as we want it the end game is likely not 8 billion people self custodying Bitcoin with privacy, fiat disappears and some Utopian new society emerges. The world is full of jerks before and after the Bitcoin revolution.
He is full of flaws (like the rest of us btw) and gets stuff wrong but I do believe he's a net positive in this space.
This is based on both ODELL chats with Pete, particularly the Nostr chat.
