Peer-to-peer trading sounds liberating until reality hits—endless waiting, relying on counterparties you've never met, constant worry about regulatory scrutiny. The friction is real.

What if moving crypto was just... frictionless? Immediate settlement, no intermediaries to question your moves, genuinely usable for everyday transactions. That's where the real shift happens—turning digital assets into something you actually use, not just hold.

Dream on, the P2P approach has been played out long ago; you still have to rely on native on-chain solutions.

ngl the p2p friction point hits different when you've actually tried it. but here's the thing—frictionless settlement introduces its own attack surface. what's the consensus mechanism backing that immediacy? merkle proof validation? and if we're removing intermediaries entirely, game theory says someone's gotta absorb that counterparty risk somehow. the design pattern matters more than the promise

NGL P2P sounds awesome until you get stood up and realize what a real scam is.

nah the "frictionless" dream always has friction hiding somewhere... just shifts it elsewhere lol

That's right, P2P trading sounds free but is actually a nightmare... waiting for people, worrying about the other party running away, and having to watch out for regulatory crackdowns. Frictionless is the way to go; who still hoards coins that can actually be spent?

That's right, P2P trading may seem free but is actually a nightmare. Waiting and waiting, you're still afraid the other party will run away. The real satisfaction is instant settlement, where no one cares how you use it. Only then can crypto truly be used as money instead of just sitting there gathering dust.
