If other people have a problem with the fact that I made money---and they shouldn't---that is their problem.
But I made my point: it's unjust to claim that everyone who made money on bitcon just got lucky and to therefore condemn them.
- dragontamer 13y agoWhether or not you made money is irrelevant to greater technological progress. My personal beef with this whole BTC thing is that it once represented a potential future of money exchange. But today, the big news of BTC is how much money people are either making or losing. The entire "technocrat" viewpoint of BTC seems to be disappearing beneath a wave of greed. And its a shame too... the technocrat viewpoint is the most interesting to me.

True, but if people are going to say that bitcoin earnings are not deserved because they are based on a lucky guess, I am going to provide the only counterexample I can personally attest to. Since I can only read my own mind, that counterexample is myself.
