in the context of bitcoin , honey badger refers to bitcoin itself ... not the speculator , and the implication is that nothing can stop it - not whether one can buy sex dolls with it online , not whether or not it is feeding or banking the worlds poor , not lifting up the downtrodden , not whether lightning works , not whether it "scales" , etc ad nauseum...

it means bitcoin dgaf about any of that ...

it exists . period .

First time I hear honey badger being used in this context. See, the beautiful thing about Proof of Work is that it also involve the work of humans. These humans believe in running the honey badger at their expenses for a diverse set of reasons. Without these humans working the honey badger stops to live. All it needs for the honey badger to die is for humans to stop “giving a fuck” about it.
