My perspective is that I don't know whether or not crypto will take off. I am guessing people who are even a little more skeptical get tired of all the pumping.

Also, dramatic phrases like your "If most of HN readers call crypto a scam, then I’m out of HN." tend to turn people off. Though I would miss you - you are probably the only person on HN I remember by username. In fact, I recognized you by post style, and looked at your name after reading.
