Just more curious, better informed, willing to look at the shadows of society combined with eagerness to go against the (wrong headed) herd.

In 2009 it was clear to Hal, that Bitcoin has a high probability to go to millions of dollars. It was clear to me in 2010 that Bitcoin has a fair chance to get to 10k and later 100k. A fool not to recognise the asymmetric bet.

And here we are. Monero is the next bjg thing. It'll go to 100k and beyond as Bitcoin rises above the million mark.
