BTC is fully accountable while it's issuance is not in the hands of any certain group. Therefore it has a permanently predictable rate of inflation that is much lower than fiat currencies at the moment. Nobody has to trust anyone, that

I wonder if it's just a matter of creative accounting? Whole sectors of the economy such as travel, dining out, entertainment disappeared for a period.

Maybe it would make sense to have multiple independent sections of backbone at the BGP level. Instead of having one public AS/backbone, break it down into regions at least so that it is more confederated.

I was in a tiny surfing town in Costa Rica and they had gig fiber. You reach it via 3 hour car ride through the jungle and rivers on a single lane dirt road. Better internet than I have in the US.
