name - the nameless, is as confused as his name
He's pretty accurate from what I've seen. Didn't actually cross check with the article but willing to bet he's right.
i don't waste my time reading stuff from people who don't understand that pseudonymity is better than unauditable encrypted ledgers and there's a reason for why people use his favourite coin, being, to buy drugs, but anyone with serious money uses coinjoins to hide their stash.
i find monero fanatics extremely tedious. they are shitcoiners. the end.
Absolutely spot on 🎯
Tedious is fair lol. They have fed-like energy to quibble over minutia til the cows come home.
But, tend to be more "cypherpunk" and on average much more educated in the complex topics such as privacy and economics.
TLDR they cool and most hold plenty of BTC anyway
yeah. that bleed-over is part of the reason why i'm not usually following people on the edge of that region of stupidity
i don't mind whatever kink people are into and i don't follow anyone who posts often about their kink, but they plain out shit on bitcoin on a regular basis because it hasn't got ring signatures and they can jam it up their ring. bitcoin has no ring signatures for reasons they are oblivious enough to that they still think that privacy is an overriding element of a fiat-superceding monetary system.
actual people who understand the ins and outs of encryption, systems theory, signals intelligence, distributed systems, asymmetric cryptography, psychology, and the theory of actually achieving the abolition of arbitrary violent power in society, understand that this is not helpful to anyone, and i'm going to opt out of reading and interacting with someone who gives these "fed-like" people a hearing, i'm done with it. i've been in this since 2012 and they are just straight wrong.
Free to do so. Haven't been around nearly as long and still find the conversation informative.
I'll see you around in other threads :)
until i have a client that lets me block a conversation involving stupid people, even if people i follow are in it, this is how it be
It's been real 🥲
well, when you realise that the moment you out yourself to them as a bitcoiner and they start on that track, you'll start to understand why i have this opinion
I get it. You don't have to follow me if my engagement with some accounts bothers you (muting seems extreme). Each their own, but I'll still bet, article unread, that what saber claimed is true in this argument. Can bet sats if you like, not motivated enough to check otherwise
even a stopped clock etc
all of the moneros on nostr that i have encountered are trolls
That's the joke, megamind 🧠
I'm suppose to believe we're all just too stupid and this guy is the self proclaimed smart one? lmfao
We're both muted now. Not sure what past yall had, but I messed up by talking to you. It's hard out here for an open-minded bitcoiner these days
I can understand muting me, but why did he mute you??? lol
For bringing dumb conversations into his feed. There's an explanation of sorts somewhere in the thread. Wouldn't take me up on betting if you were right or not though 🤷♀️
As a Bitcoiner for 15 years I can tell you that those that are in it for the fiat gains, the censorship/banning and the non critical thinking, not realising how competition between Monero and Bitcoin is good for both are NEITHER Bitcoiners nor cypherpunks.
I have seen it over and over again that statists (unfortunately there are many these days in Bitcoin) are afraid of new ideas and projects that actually deliver valuable stuff.
Becoming a statist is a warning sign that someone got out of touch with life itself and now relies on propaganda, (self-) censorship and in the states case extraction of value from others under violence.
Think my reply got lost due to bad connection. Damn.
Lost me a bit on connection to statism, but agree the culture is a bit closed minded regarding interacting with "monero people." It's tiresome, not to mention embarsssing by proxy how often a self proclaimed maxi charges in with weak grasp of technicals and resorts to shouting down when they realize they are out of their depth.
Anyway, nice to meet you. Send me a bitcoin, you have so many 🙏
