As a result, they *can't* compete when BSV achieves higher usage than they can support.
What will it actually take for BSV to succeed?
One big thing, or many small things.
As a result, they *can't* compete when BSV achieves higher usage than they can support.
First, BSV must be able to scale. So far, it looks like the software can handle scale pretty nicely, and folks are working on further improving it.
Second, people must actually use BSV. Adoption. This also drives miners to scale, too.
One big thing, or many small things... Using BSV to work.
See, if we get one large volume business sustainably using BSV, or many small volume businesses doing so, BSV wins.
The "costly revenue" will arise on BSV, so only miners who work will earn it, while the "cheap revenue" will remain on BTC/BCH.
BSV miners will earn both cheap and costly revenue.
Hashing is only one form of Proof of Work in Bitcoin.
There's also compiling and validating transactions, hashing them into the Merkle tree, and communicating with the other miners.
Only BSV miners will maximize profits.
And with that in mind, which coin do you think they'll be more likely to sell, the cheap one, or the costly one?
That gives me incentives to maximize the value of the costly one, because I'll have higher market share.
With one big business using BSV, or many small ones.
But you know what...?
I want to encourage everyone to use BSV, not just one big business, or some small businesses.
Everyone.
I want BSV to win within the next five years.
And that is absolutely within the realm of possibility.
The more ways users have to earn BSV, the more commerce can happen on BSV.
The more ways consumers can use BSV, the more valuable BSV becomes.
The more folks we have building now, the more folks will be attracted to BSV tomorrow. Then, the more will be attracted the day after that.
It's a compounding effect.

2/ Given the scale and cost structure of Arrow, it makes sense that investors are intensely focused on its delivery timeline. This thread will discuss possible timelines, current market expectations (i.e., what’s “priced in”) & how different Arrow scenarios will impact the mkt.
3/ As you can see from the litany of responses to Michael’s tweet, there is great skepticism in the market regarding Arrow’s timeline. This is largely due to a bearish narrative conveyed by competing CEO’s whose assets only hold value if Arrow is substantially delayed.
4/ Those who played “King of the Hill” as a child would remember that it is the person at the top who is constantly attacked, not the kid sitting at the bottom of the hill in the mud. No one cares enough about that kid to attack them. This is a good parable for $NXE & Uranium.
5/ First a quick note on “this cycle” – Segra generally defines this cycle as the deficits forecasted from the mid-2020s to late-2030s. When people imply an asset producing in the mid-to-late 2020s will “miss the cycle”, they clearly have not done any real S/D modelling.
