I like the way you scarequote 'hack' as if the MtGox hack was made up FUD[1]. And the way you change "I didn't think of keeping it" to "you abhor hoarding". If he didn't lose it all in said hack because he was selling it back for US dollars as it came in, then he wouldn't have got fabulously wealthy from holding it; in that case why should he have accepted Bitcoin if it was only a less convenient, more effortful, more risky way to get ordinary amounts of money? It can't be that the only reason for Pinboard to accept Bitcoin in 2013 was to get rich quick, and it's not a get rich quick scam, it can't be both at the same time? It's like the problem where every time travel dicussion has turned from Morks and Eloi, becoming your own grandpa, treading on a butterfly in the Jurassic period and altering all history to "I'd buy Apple shares" "I'd buy Bitcoin" "I'd tell my parents to buy Apple shares" "I'd buy crypto" "I'd buy crypto" "I'd buy crypto".
