The goat.

THANK YOU ANDREAS!!!!!

This guy deserves it!

Andreas the Legend.

Congratulations. He deserves it.

Was good, now a shitcoiner, just like C(wh)ore and the rest of the clapping seals.

Kill your heroes.

He was always a shitcoiner - personally I think he's great, even though for me, shitcoins are a waste of my precious time.

But you don't give any explanation as to why undermining Bitcoin which is humanity's only hope for survival is remotely acceptable.

Sure. He also promoted Bitcoin but that was clearly a selfish motive and not admirable.

Ammous next

His 'The Internet of Money' books and resulting videos is still a solid start for understanding Bitcoin. Probably my favorite video is https://youtu.be/FYo5E7zT-vM

I've sponsered him via patreon for a while, he did very good Q&A sessions around 2017 and learned many things from him!

Thank you for everything you’ve done for the space!

“Mastering Bitcoin” was the first Bitcoin book I read after “Bitcoin Standard”. I will always be thankfull for his work.

He was good but he ain't good anymore.

The cutoff is 2020 according to OP. 👍

Makes sense... im class of 2022 and Andreas early stuff is the bomb...

And how about you? Were you ever good?

Hehe... ma man

The GOAT

Great choice!

Congratulations for Andreas , well deserved.

The GOAT 🐐

He deserves it. Idc what the recent purists say he was elemental in my on boarding and deserves it.

Why is this coming out 6 years late?

The prize has been stablished in recent years.

This is the highest order ‘proof of work’. Respect Andreas!

He’s impact on Bitcoin is much bigger than anyone else on earth including Satoshi

Coming at a wrong moment regarding his newer activities.
