What I find incredibly irritating about the Bitcoin scene, or I guess in this case better attributed to the “crypto” scene, is this tendency for an army of talking heads to want to project their fears and narratives on the coin.

Something like gold just exists. You buy it or not, people understand that their endless screeching about it won’t change the world’s perception of it or its value.

With Bitcoin people have this incessant need to scream how it’s digital gold, related to Trump, or to China. It’s about muh four year cycles, debasement, the Fed. It’s about inflation, this group is buying or that group is selling.

Why can’t you just shut the fuck up and show some humility? Bitcoin exists and it doesn’t give a fuck about what you think it is or it isn’t, and your words about it won’t change a goddam thing in its trajectory.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk
