This is kinda a case of, "you don't have to run faster than the bear, just faster than the other guy." Let them make themselves targets.

Sadly, you’re right. It doesn’t have to be this way, but the more I see people do it the more I see lower hanging fruit for wrench attacks, govt coercion, or simple griefing.

I hope it’s worth it.

People need to take longer looks at their own ego.

Oh, big agree! Bigly, lol. Its ego.

I saw a meme yesterday saying ~ "bitcoin isn't an IQ test - its an ego test" and I've said the same in the past, buuuut... I don't think that's right. There's some dangerously big egos around here. Dangerous to themselves.

Oh yes. The glorification of the “self” is on full display. I don’t know whether to be angry or sad about it. It’s exhausting to ignore.
