Why is it "Stay humble" and not "be modest" ?

Staying humble is referring to the attitude, where as modesty can easily be misunderstood as in bitcoin terms as not getting all the sats we can get, but to stay modest about it.

I can have 90% of all the bitcoin and still act humbly.

Humility is valuing others. Modesty is more about not exposing oneself to others (not just when it comes to clothes)

Thank you for reacting, I don't agree. I think modesty is the presentation to others and humility is the introspective place you take. And I think defiance is a great part of how Bitcoiners compare themselves, there is no room for defiance when you are humble. But you can be defiant and present yourself modestly.
