Counterpoint: most "tech people" I know — including people who have worked in crypto — both know about it and also think it's a scam.
- meowkit 5y agoThat’s the real point. For the author, me, or you to claim what most tech people think is ridiculous.
- eli 5y agoI think you’re being too literal. There are lots of tech people who quietly feel this way — just look at the comments here. The point is that they shouldn’t be so quiet about it. If someone only knows crypto from stories in mainstream press or cable news, they’d probably incorrectly assume “tech people” are almost universally for it.
- baby 5y agoWell, I work in the field and I think there’s both. Scams and real technology advances that would blow anybody’s mind if they would spend a bit of time to look into it. I promise there is more than Bitcoin and dogecoin.
