How does this pass for a top voted comment on HN? To put it mildly, I get that cryptocurrencies aren't the most popular thing on HN but this comment breaks just about every HN commenting guideline and yet it's up here: > Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes. > Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive. > Eschew flamebait. Avoid generic tangents. Omit internet tropes. > Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something. > Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. > Please don't pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Find something interesting to respond to instead. Do better.
