arcticbull, I feel like you have a pattern of being too aggressive with me. Just pointing it out. I have a pattern of being too aggressive in the past and I am trying to tone it back. I appreciate having people to disagree with me, so please keep doing that. (Sorry if this comes across as patronizing, patronizing people is one of my greatest pet peeves.)
> Don't be the guy advocating putting money into bitcoin to store value
Well, I didn't. Bitcoin was designed to be sound and honest money on theoretical grounds. But it hasn't yet achieved the needed liquidity to be relatively stable in value. I hope it does some day, but I don't know if it will.
Anyway, the issues you are raising with your references do not worry me in the least. I have been watching bitcoin a long time and I think that's just short-term news. It's not part of the macro picture. It's like if you came back from a 20 year stint in a monastery tomorrow and watched the news---you would think for sure the world is ending tomorrow. Everything seems like a crisis in the moment, but it isn't.
- arcticbull 7y agoTruly apologize if I offended you ^_^ tone doesn’t carry well on the internet. I’m just stating my beliefs, and the “don’t be the guy” was a riff on the parent post. I also come here to have my beliefs challenged.
