There can only be one. Bitcoin was technologically superseded shortly after it was created, but there can only be one. Bitcoin is the one. The new technologies will need to be introduced as layer twos on top of Bitcoin, and as dao coins and dex coins. Anyone simply attempting to repeat what Satoshi accomplished is a scammer. Anyone who knows anything about crypto currency is a Bitcoin Maxi. There are a whole lot of ignorant or dishonest, or at least irritating, Bitcoin Maxis, but there are no knowledgeable shitcoin shillers. If the scammers understood what they are talking about, they would not be trying it. They think that Satoshi pulled a big scam, and are forever trying to repeat that scam. At the same time, never be so Maxi that you forget that Satoshi failed to foresee many evils, notably blockchain analysis and miner concentration, and if you have a lot of money in Bitcoin or a political interest in crypto currency, you should understand something about cryptography, in which case you should realise that advances in cryptography, in large part driven and motivated by the existence of Bitcoin, rendered Bitcoin technologically obsolete rather quickly. The scaling crisis was foreseen, and crypto nerds have been working frantically on solving it ever since Bitcoin was announced. We now have solutions, which need to be implemented at layer two. Grail is a bridge that can connect to such solutions.
