He is doing these takedowns in an attempt to help his company. Someone else is probably "selling" his company's services.
If people complain about crypto folks "talking their book", then the anti-crypto folks are also guilty of the same if their line of work is threatened by crypto.
If your grievance revolves around "bad things" happening in a new space, therefore new space is bad, I can't take you seriously, I will be suspicious. That's like saying early internet was mainly used for pornography and other illegal stuff.
his company makes the closed source financial infrastructure for digitising cash for multinational corporations, that is made useless by crypto becoming popular.
of course he doesnt mention this when writing hit pieces on crypto culture.
Uh, that's the worse citation source I've ever seen? It's a speculative twitter post?
Also, what you said is like saying someone working at Stripe felt threatened by crypto. He's still not selling you a product (anywhere I can find in his online presence!)
A full decade later, crypto still isn't used for payments except in PR puff pieces, like the El Salvador fiasco. No one working in serious online payments feels threatened by crypto. Some want to ride the crypto PR mania into popularity, however.
hes not selling me anything, but hes selling to companys who have a choice of the stuff hes making or the stuff others are making as FOSS, and the stuff other people are making is being adopted more than his stuff. I guess that would be annoying.
I do notice how a decade in, the goalposts continue to shift. The millions of users are still nothing, the daily volume of transferred value is nothing, the hundreds of daos and communities are nothing, twitter discord reddit ycombinator, all of them delusional. yes its all just scammers and people being scammed. thats the true reality.
> First time large protests happened against Bukele in light of this law
Hold up, it's a fiasco because some people protested??
> Adoption is low
Generally when a new thing is introduced, adoption tends to be low, it doesn't immediately blow up. However, I would like to know how you concluded that adoption is low, where are you getting your metrics?
> DUI fraud is through the roof
Driving Under the Influence? What's the implication here? I don't understand how it's related to bitcoin.
It feels like you're reaching to conclude that it was a "fiasco", if large protests and disapprovals are a measure, the US is a fiasco (election protests, capitol storming, whatever is happening right now), does this mean that the US/Dollar is a fiasco?
