Everyone's open-minded until they study #Bitcoin long enough to realize how shitty and nonsensical everything else is.

Sadly, not everyone reaches that stage.

What looks like close-mindedness, intolerance and bigotry to the profane, is simply experience and time spent in this field watching scams come and go, watching the gullible crowds get burn again and again.

It's just critical thinking, based on years of daily education and research.

When it comes to cRyPtOcUrReNcIeS, being open-minded isn't a virtue. It's mostly wishful thinking rooted in ignorance. Bitcoin maximalism and "toxicity" are just experienced bitcoiners calling out scams. They gain nothing by convincing you. They're just trying to save you.
