You have it oddly exactly backwards. I find that people that are not smart enough to understand Bitcoin generally respond by getting mad about Bitcoin or ignoring it.
People that first understand it eventually find Monero and BCH and start investing everything they can afford.
Of course idiots can be on both sides.
- ToucanLoucan 3y agoI don't understand the technical intricacies of Bitcoin, that's true. But that's not why I'm mad about it. I'm mad about it because it's socially corrosive. I'm mad about it because tons of people who had no way of knowing better were brought into it and lost everything. I'm mad about the reflexive syllogism that permeates all tech-centered spaces which seems to say: "If you can be exploited, you deserve to be exploited."
