Having your own node means absolutely nothing. Institutions built and manage the networks your node needs to sync with Bitcoin; Same institutions embedding their own miners at the source, with a lot more money than you.

Bitcoin's security is consensus based, not hashrate; Consensus is a product of network topology. The network you never owned.

ChatGPT is less than 4 years old, and institutions have completely reorganized around it. Bitcoin was released 17 years ago; do you even remember 17 years ago?

Because people are still asking, "what's Bitcoin?"

That's the difference between a revolutionary innovation and the token pipe dreams of a developer conference.

You're going to use the institutional rails, because it's the only choice you have; as it always has been, so it will be.
