> Bitcoin advocates have generally been exceedingly clear about these kinds of things. To the point of begging people to listen. From "not your keys, not your coins" to "KYC/AML bought coins are easy to trace"
Such advocates are the fringe. Most bitcoin advocates are saying "If you're not buying bitcoin you're an idiot! It's easy money! My critics are no-coiners who didn't listen to me!"
- anonporridge 4y agoSuch advocates are the ones with the credentials to actually bother listening to, like core devs or the people who literally wrote the book on understanding the technical nature of the system. They're not the fringe, they're the core that the fringe pump monkeys looking for a quick buck latch onto and promptly ignore. The majority of people who talk about literally anything aren't worth listening to, and if you can't differentiate between the two, we have bigger problems to work through.
