In languages a double negative is a positive, a double positive is a positive, but can a double positive be a negative? Yeah, sure;) Can't tell you how much I doubt this, love to see a link, but owning 1/2000 of a bitcoin is a lot less than "all in" and still probably qualifies as "own bitcoin". I can see that you have never done the arithmetic on gold. The U.S. is the largest global holder, about $450 billion worth at today's prices. Our M2 money supply is north of $21 trillion, less than 1/40 of what would be needed to back that supply. Oh, you say, the dollar is inflated. Doesn't matter, the relative purchasing power of gold vs. the dollar is a known quantity, to equalize the values of our money supply to gold (backing) you either have to massively deflate the dollar or massively inflate gold. You can't of course, deflate the dollar much without brutal consequences for the economy, the consequences for loan holders and issuers alone would crash the economy. And if you inflate the price of gold by a factor of 40 ($72,000 an oz) poorer nations will tear every rainforest to the ground and placer mine every river to "get some".

I don't hate bitcoin, and implying that I do is the laziest form of argument. A close second is implying that I don't understand it or how our monetary system works, though the latter of the two is a very heavy lift.

It seems that you have never actually looked at the price history of gold, which is a lot flatter than BTC. Would that imply that the bitcoin price is so easily manipulated?

It's possible that people will overcome natural hesitance to use an opaque and unsecured platform like Lightning, It's possible that I will become good looking...not smart though to bet on either of these long shots. There were a LOT of people who bought in to BTC at $25k $35k, $45k, $55k, maybe a lion's share of that 22% you claim. How many of those people will be able to resist cashing out if the price ever again approaches their buy in price? My prediction is, very few.
