There are tangential discussions around market structure, regulations (their existence, interpretation and necessity) and other matters I've found genuinely interesting.
Bitcoin appears to have attempted a clean reboot of modern finance. It's interesting seeing where common solutions are found. It's fascinating considering where divergent conclusions could be reached, and whether that could help us in the mainline economy.
Price discussions are inane for this asset, but it doesn't mean that's the only thing we can talk about.
The things that you mentioned are what I am most interested around Bitcoin, and what should be talked about - but that is only happening in very small amounts and (in my experience) by people who don't have any horses in the race.
As a side note - I would add that Bitcoin in theory attempted to reboot modern finance. The idea, passion, maybe even necessity is there - but I don't think the tech is there yet. Clearly people are more interested in generating value based on our current monetary system vs. pushing for widespread Bitcoin adoption.
There's no valuable discussion to be had anymore regarding BTC because every discussion turns into price point speculation, FUD, or "I told you so" remarks.
Bring some real discussion and critical thought the table, and not just repost the same WSJ articles that sensationalize the tiniest price movements.
