287. TBR - Tether Mining Bitcoin and NAT | Building NAT Demand Loops | NEO Is Coming đ
Bitcoin doesnât fix itselfâpeople do.
We explore why complacency has quietly become Bitcoinâs biggest threat and why human intervention, not blind faith, will determine its future. As we challenge the myth that Bitcoin behaves like natureâthat if we âjust wait,â it will evolve on its own. Instead, reveal how its human-made architecture depends on aligned incentives, maintenance, and active participation to survive.
We trace the debate from store-of-value versus peer-to-peer cash toward the real issue: how to keep miners profitable, decentralization intact, and Bitcoinâs security budget sustainable. With shrinking miner revenues, developer centralization, and @Tether_to entry into mining, we ask whether institutional âdecentralizationâ is really decentralization at all.
The discussion dives into how the @natgmi token and Digital Matter Theory (DMT) introduce new incentive loopsâmeme to market cap to miner subsidyâthat could strengthen Bitcoinâs economic design from the ground up. If Bitcoinâs problem is incentive-shaped, then the solution must be incentive-shaped too.
We break down what Tetherâs mining move means for the ecosystem, how $NATâs loops realign the economics of security, and why this could mark the beginning of a new phase for Bitcoinâone where creators, miners, and markets finally work in sync.
Watch until the end where we connect everything back to human coordination, digital matter, and the long-term alignment Bitcoin needs to survive.
