It genuinely unsettles me when someone studies Bitcoin deeply… and still turns on it.
I can understand not getting it yet.
I can even understand fear.
What I don’t trust is full understanding followed by rejection.
Because once you see the math, the incentives, and the history,
the picture gets very simple
So if someone understands Bitcoin and still attacks it, they usually aren’t rejecting bad logic.
They’re rejecting what Bitcoin takes away
their leverage, their gatekeeping, their ability to benefit from a system built on opacity.
I say that as someone who has spent years studying this space carefully.
A person who misunderstands Bitcoin can be taught.
A person who understands it and opposes it is usually telling you exactly who they are.
