Of course you want to talk to me, Jeff.
Of course you want to ask questions, without the ability to answer any presented to you initially.
Let's clear something up — you are not interested in talking to me. Ever. Nor are you interested in truth. What you are interested in, is engagement. You are interested in protecting those precious egotistical beliefs you so desperately cling to. That is why you resort to public threads, instead of diverting to private messaging.
The difference between us, is that I will happily answer your questions. On the contrary, when you are presented with a question, Jeff, you run around X like a headless chicken, posting price charts on others' posts, as if they were of any importance to reference fiat-currency against something that will eventually replace it.
That speaks volumes, Jeff. You are here to pump bags. Nothing more. You don't care for the technology, you don't care for the revolution. You don't care for the ability to operate beyond the bounds of a fraudulent promissory note system. You merely want to "inflate" your fiat-based bank balance, perhaps to buy a holiday or two. Maybe even a Rolex, or on the off-day, a full tank of fuel.
Nice.
Now — let's lay down some facts, since you seem utterly confused (as always).
Firstly, let's make it evident to your followers that you've been questioned well over 10 times by now, with a rather simple question presented: "Please explain Section 8 of the Whitepaper, and what its purpose is?"
... Silence.
Ah, yes.
Marvellous, if we were at a meditation retreat, or perhaps a Library.
There are things you certainly cannot ever take away from BSV. It scales. It allows micropayments. The foundational protocol is set in stone. Everything operates on the base layer. It most closely follows the whitepaper.
Instead, you opted for a network which was hijacked by Epstein and his associates. You opted to support a network which deviated away from the whitepaper. You scream "Fork!" as if it were some sort of insult. Did you miss the memo? BTC Core is a fork of original bitcoin too, you moron.
Regardless of your opinion on who Satoshi may or may not be. It does not take a genius to spend a couple of days being considerate to the facts. Instead, you follow news headlines, you follow the very pedophile funded narrative, whilst worshipping the figure-heads solely because it is deemed "popular to do so".
You are partly correct here, though, for once: "Casey measured the ground. He wrote a gravity report."
The report was an alternative to Gravity, without using "mass attracts mass" nonsense, not a 'back-up dancer to existing Gravity report'. So, what you have admitted here is: "Casey has spent more time than I have on such topics." — Bravo.
So, I ask you Jeff — how many experiments, how many observations, and how many real-life experiences have you concluded that determine the Earth to be spherical? I think we can all agree, the answer is zero.
If you really wish to go down the route of a FE discussion, be my guest — everyone is entitled to their opinion. One thing must be made clear, though: I was once very much "obsessed" with space, with the heliocentric model. It fascinated me. I too, once defended the precious "Globe model". The difference being, I was willing to ask questions where things did not make sense. The more you ask, the more the lie reveals itself.
As always though, we know you will run from the request to debate. You will be left with no answer to my questions, whilst demanding answers to yours. Truthfully, I will absolutely decimate you in such a debate — pulling your pants down, and whipping you with them as part of your ego dissolution humiliation.
So, Jeff — be my guest, proceed.
Please.

"The irony is that Casey is exactly the kind of person Bitcoin was built for. Skeptical of institutions. Questions authority. Distrusts official narratives."
And that is where you have gone wrong. Sceptical of institutions, sceptical of banks. Sceptical of the authority and official narratives is exactly right. So, perhaps consider digging a little deeper than the surface layer of the skin on your rice pudding. Maybe, just maybe, you may see BTC for what it is. A hijacked network turned Ponzi, paraded by the banking elites. The choice you opted for instead of opposing that was: "Ah, but it can make me some money! Let me look at the charts, morals aren't important right now!" Marvellous.

On a final note, since it'd be nice to stay on one single topic at a time: "Let me be clear about BSV: high transaction counts mean very little when much of the activity is data storage and low-value traffic. A hard drive does not become a monetary network because you write more files to it."
High TX counts mean "activity", whichever way you look at it. It is traffic. Staring at an empty road, is absence of traffic. Watching a busy, high-speed, efficient highway, is the opposite. It is usage. It is purpose. It is activity.
The ironic thing here is this; If "BTC" were able to do such a thing — you'd be doing it. You would be screaming about it. If the roles were reversed, you would be ridiculing BSV had it been wearing BTC's shoes. The point you've made here is not negative. It is positive. BSV is capable of far more than what BTC ever will be. BSV operates not only as a cash system, but a data-layer which can power the entirety of digital commerce.
Once done, there's still enough room on the roads to throw as much data as you wish at it. So, whilst you parade around the streets wearing a bag on your head in an attempt to hide that hideous "BTC" tattoo on your forehead in sheer embarrassment, your cognitive dissonance and bias both make you look like the pedophile-loving BTC cuck you present yourself as.
P.S. LLM responses don't look good on you. A little embarrassing, don't you think? If I wanted to converse with an LLM, I don't require a middleman. But then again, you love those over in BTC, don't you? So, not surprising that you opt for some 'saviour' to come to your rescue.
BTC WILL NOT survive.
It can't.
Mark my words.
