HFSP (Have Fun Staying Poor) is a direct contradiction to the “Stay humble, stacks sats” mantra Bitcoiners constantly quote.

Why would you want someone to be in poverty?

Why would you make fun of the fact that someone did not educate themselves on Bitcoin and is now poorer for it?

Bitcoiners can do better here.

Earlier today I told someone to hfsr

HFSR?

I just told them the opposite

To have fun staying rich haha

Hope that one catches on. I like that better!

Hope so too buddy #hfsr

#hfsr Am I following you yet? Damus and Primal keep saying I’m not.

Yea you are it says haha

At last! 👏🏻

😂 now that you mention it, it also a mantra against Bitcoin, because the qualification "staying poor" refers to the valuation in present currency. 😂😂😁

You just made my day. 😋😂

Glad I could help! 😅

One could say that HFSP is the result of not staying humble and stacking sats, and should only be used when someone chooses to remain uneducated.

One could say that I suppose.

Correct. For example, today Microsoft did just that.

Such an L on their part. Though I think companies are different than everyday people.

I think it’s a form of tough love

I don't believe in kicking sand in the faces of people who are struggling. I do believe in extending my hand, and helping them. I've been the one struggling, and I know how it feels when others use your misfortune as fuel for their own amusement. I never want to be the one who treats others that way.

Bitcoiners are called to be better, especially since we know what we know.

💯

Disagree, I can 100 percent say it about Microsoft and it not be contradictory

Companies are different, yes.

Bullying helps holdouts conform

^ yep.

Also, bullying works where tact and eloquence fails. Some people need a sledgehammer, or they actually are acting in the worst interest of evolution and they NGMI.

So bullying that builds character. Got it! 😅

Yes.

Hopefully you’re not teaching your kid to be gay.

That was a leap. We’re talking about Bitcoin.

We’re talking about bullying and it’s importance.

Bullying produces negative results but I get what you’re saying.

I see what you're saying and agree with the sentiment. Though think it's rightly applicable to the people who actively hate on Bitcoin and refuse to educate themselves. To the uninformed person who doesn't know better, sure, it's a bit aggressive and mean. But to the person who is actively choosing to not educate and learn and just spit on it, then yes, hfsp

At least you’re honest!

A very considered opinion. 🤔

i think its just a way to have a little fun at no coiner expense, not a big deal

You may be right.

It’s facts, that’s why

It’s actually a humble statement

I use both, depending on who I’m dealing with.

Default is stay humble stack sats and the arrogant, stubborn, ignorant assholes get the toxic HFSP treatment.

Also, we’re not a hivemind… Different people, different attitudes.

An important distinction. 🤝
