Right, I'm aware of this. My claim (feel free to disagree) is that this conspiratorial thinking is coming from the exact same region of CryptoBrain as what built up crypto-land and FTX/SBF to begin with. It is the sensation that you are in on something special, everyone who is not in on it is either an antagonist or an idiot, and you deserve more than they deserve.

I think a lot of people are in the second camp, but dress it up as the first. It's funny how tons of people who claim "I'm here for the tech, hodl" get mad whenever somebody shorts their coin or the price goes down
