Bitcoin is ours! Cool

Indeed.  

Bitcoin is defined by the code we choose to run.  

As a btc user, I never had the opportunity to chose which code I was going to use.

Using "plug and play" spv or core wallets and trading on centralized exchanges does not make you a "bitcoin user" technically speaking.


So for you someone using electrum and saving his private keys is not a btc user?
What is a btc user then?

He appears to think of a Bitcoin user as a miner, someone who runs a full node, or at least runs some flavor of a core wallet. Do only "kids" run SPV wallets although you can do advanced things like multisig with them, and Satoshi invented the SPV wallet concept for Bitcoin users to use?

I think it's important to be aware of the fact that hdbuck is a fucking idiot.

An angry, bitter idiot, to be precise.
or is good at never breaking character [Fatman says= go figure, when did you buy his account?]

Thx, that clarification is appreciated.
