The issue is that they're not even reading my research. All these big, supposedly respectable names are just blindly talking smack, completely oblivious to what I wrote and the career risk I took to write it. The rest are too concerned about damaging their reputations to say anything. And when I call these people out, try to defend myself, try to expose the problems with the echo chamber, or just quiet the noise, I get villainized and my reputation sinks further into the mud, making it harder for anybody to endorse me or these ideas.

SOFTWAR -- a technical thesis that is free for anyone to download, that should have never succeeded in any commercial capacity -- has outsold The Bitcoin Standard 5-to-1 since release. I don't know what else I can possibly do to produce a clearer demand signal for these ideas. And the silence is deafening. All these big names just pretending like it doesn't exist.

This place is vicious & hostile towards new ideas. It wears me down. I don't think I'm going to come back for awhile.
