I understand where you’re coming from even though I don’t share your viewpoint.This will be difficult for others to relate to, but I will try
- Thank you for the well wish and I also wish you continued success
- When you buy Bitcoin, you do not have to do anything more
-----------------------
- You get someone like Michael Saylor constantly buying Bitcoin and pumping it up both with money purchase as well as talking it up in the media whenever he's given the chance. You can search Michael Saylor on CNBC and Bloomberg and other financial publication
- You get a bunch of people to convince a whole country El Salvador to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender. Imagine the infrastructure that went with that
- You get NYDIG who signs up over 1000 US banks and credit unions to offer Bitcoin
- You get Paul Tudor Jones to write a thesis on Bitcoin as investment and inflation hedge
- You get Stanley Druckenmiller talking positively about Bitcoin and how he wished he had gotten sooner
- You get Kevin O'Leary who put a good amount of his net worth and talks about we so fucking early in Bitcoin and cryptos digital assets
- You get Raoul Pal going all in with his liquid net worth into crypto digial assets
- You get Ray Dalio who says he'd rather own Bitcoin than bonds
- You get PayPal adopting Bitcoin and cryptos assets
- You get Visa and Mastercard integrating Bitcoin and cryptos
- You adoption in Spain and Swiss bank and Australian bank and Portugal and German banks
- You get George Soros fund investing in Bitcoin and crypto assets
- You get US lawmakers protecting Bitcoin and crypto digital assets
- You get Tim Cook investing in Bitcoin and crypto assets
- You get Elon Musk buying Bitcoin for himself and for Tesla
- You get Mercado Libre, and Ricardo 3rd richest man in Mexico
- You get Jack Dorsey a Bitcoin only maximalist
- And many many more
What you don't get are the people on ET who constantly fud Bitcoin and crypto assets as bubble and ready to crash to very low prices
- As a Bitcoiner and investor in the crypto assets space, I have a responsibility to defend against fud
Think about it, if constant fud is being posted on ET, don't you think it could have the effect of swaying people away from investing in Bitcoin and crypto assets?
CNBC and Bloomberg and many many people from the financial world, like Jamie Dimon and Warren Buffett and Munger affected many retail people to stay away from Bitcoin for many years
You should see CNBC coverage of Bitcoin when it first crossed $100, how negative it was
Even Michael Saylor himself was a big critic of Bitcoin before he studied it
Even Kevin O'Leary talked so much shit about Bitcoin and cryptos for many years
-----------------------
Should I stay away and be euphoric and not post all the adoption that's happening as Bitcoin and crypto assets take over the financial system world?
Should I just let all the ET salty people like Pekelo constantly bash and fud Bitcoin and cryptos?

Listen to this podcast and you might understand why I am the way I am
To me, none of the items you enumerated are necessarily bullish. They are stories put forth by people and entities for their own reasons and to further their agenda. The timing of the release of stories is often strategic. Taken as a whole, they would make me bearish rather than neutral or bullish.
The best times to buy Bitcoin were when it was not yet in the public’s consciousness and during the period of heavy negativity. An inopportune time to buy is when all the influencers are telling you to buy because there is only upside ahead. I’m speaking within the context of a long-term holding period that you advocate. As a short-term trading vehicle, Bitcoin is very volatile and looks great to trade.
The people on ET who constantly shit on Bitcoin have their reasons. I agree with you it’s not because they are making money on Bitcoin. But I disagree with you about their ability to influence the trajectory of Bitcoin’s price in any way. I think very deep pockets are involved in crypto and what happens with Bitcoin will happen regardless of ET’s existence.
For sure I hope you do not stay away from ET. This site can use a lot more examples of the little guy making it big in the markets. Keep blasting the detractors as you like. I find the exchanges always entertaining and sometimes informative, surprisingly.
I will listen to the podcast over the weekend.
