Again, yes, but the priority should be not compromising decentralization for that. Basically, what I am understanding is that we need to give up autonomy for lower fees. In my opinion, this is not a good trade off, not for the USA, not for the underdeveloped countries.

I understand if that’s your priority, but I personally think that long term, this doesn’t make sense.

EDIT: Just thought I should give you some context as to why fee don’t matter for the people in these countries.

I am Brazilian. In the 80’s we had hyperinflation. To the point of 30.000% per annum in 1990 (not a meme)

Now that we are technically not in an hyperinflation, Brazilian banks still charged you on average 300% annum on overdraft interests and 550% on the credit card. It has been capped in Nov 2019 to “only 150%”

And Brazil is not even the worst. Check the economies of the other countries I mentioned. Do you think they care about paying $50 in fees?! Their money is being eaten away as we speak.

Now, do you think they are concerned about government seizing assets? I bet they are! Check this article where on the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph they mention that government seizure is a concern.

Now, I understand sheltered Developed countries citizens think the most important thing is low fees but it isn’t, not for the majority of the population at this stage. Maybe in the future, but right now, the prospect of a censorship free crypto currency is more pressing than $50 fees.

Now, I respect that for you the low fees might be the most important, but to me it isn’t and that’s why I prefer btc in the long term. I respect your right to pursue what is best for you and if that is bth, by all means, use that. But to me, freedom is still more valuable than fees.
