> This is the second time this week I've seen an article from Diehl on the front page that is critical of cryptocurrency but has next to zero substance. Weird that people regard him as a crypto expert, he doesn't seem to understand the space very well. What is stated without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. These unfounded personal attacks is not what HW was about, I remember. > Comparing Bitcoin to doge and shiba is laughable such insight! > - Re progcoins, he says "After twelve years of these technologies existing" - Ethereum is only 6 years old... Damn, you got him! By reading the text as literally as possible... I'm impressed! > - Like most other crypto skeptics, this author doesn't understand the value of decentralized value transfer, so his analysis entirely misses the pro's of these technologies. It's like someone trying to understand why candy is popular by only looking at the nutritional information - never tasting it. Didn't you get the memo of his article(s) that crypto is anything but decentralised? The good thing is that you yourself didn't proclaim to be a crypto expert. Fair enough! > I'd bet 1000 SHIBA that one of Diehl's friends tried to convince him to buy in years ago, and now the cognitive dissonance of that rejection costing him hundreds of thousands of dollars in potential gains is forcing him to double down: his ego cannot tolerate crypto success - or else he'd have to admit to himself he was naive and short sided by discounting it years ago. Is this just psychological projection? Is that really all you have to offer?
