I considered saying bearish. Maybe I could have been clearer.
I have a low opinion about the usefulness of cryptocurrencies because true security is so difficult. It's basically impossible, even if you don't make any mistakes.
I really enjoy this kind of stuff, and loved reading about the z-cash ceremony. I'm not going to those lengths to protect my secrets, so I feel it's better if I don't hold a lot of wealth in such a fragile way.
I used to like it, but now I don't. It's still neat, but it's too prone to costly mistakes.

- Thorrez 2y agoBullish and bearish are common stock market terms[1] meaning optimistic and pessimistic. Hawkish means advocating war, which doesn't clearly align with optimistic or pessimistic.
