I would draw a distinction in that the early adopters of bitcoin are a much more significant part of the network than the later adopters.
That inequality doesn't work the same way with the internet more broadly.
While the term can be overused/misused/expanded beyond its bounds. I think there is such thing as bitcoin culture, though it's defined by each individual (which is a very bitcoiner thing to say)
We are far beyond early adopters of Bitcoin. The term “bitcoiner” does not mean what he thinks it means, other than what it means to himself.
Terrible take. A bitcoiner is a person who holds their own keys, aka actually owns bitcoin and not paper bitcoin. The term Bitcoiner is more important than ever with all the morons cheering for governments and corporations (=government by proxy) to gobble up Bitcoin and normalizing paper bitcoin.
That’s what it means to you.
Dude every concept in life is subjective and bound to the imagination of those using it. That’s a nothing burger or a statement. Then please stop using words altogether.
Plus, in this case you’re wrong. You need to own bitcoin to be a bitcoiner. No?
That creates such a broadly defined category of people as to be useless for defining anything, and especially useless for being able to say what is or isn’t problematic behavior. I can appreciate that you have some personally defined set of ideals and principles by which you want to live and use your money, including your bitcoin, but that doesn’t make everyone else who owns some bitcoin subject to your ideals in any way shape or form.
That’s a lot of word salad to just say „I simp for paper bitcoin“
Just answer my question. In your view: is it a prerequisite to own bitcoin to be a bitcoiner? C’mon it’s not that hard.
