As if there was not enough evidence even before this last scam ... Anyway, Bitcoin's potential transcends political divides. As shown in the The Nakamoto Project report: - Bitcoin ownership is not meaningfully related to political orientation - a typical Bitcoiner has a blend of liberal and conservative moral foundations Therefore, making Bitcoin a partisan topic is simply not matching reality.

Hope he wins, so we will do too. hole on !

Are shitcoin scammers worse than "crypto" haters? E.g. is SBF or Elisabeth Warren the worst? My first instinct is to say scammers are worse than haters. But then I realized that the reason for that reaction is that I for some weird reason assumed that the hate has some ideological reasoning behind it, which I could respect. Buut then many of the haters are really just protecting a grift of their own, or are completely uninformed.

My condolences to the single-issue Bitcoiners who supported a presidential candidate who's now officially a fully-retarded shitcoin scammer.

noble question but that’s about as single-issue as it gets. it’s also the equivalent of a foreign prisoner swap to let the dictator keep operating. Trump already had 4yrs and didn’t give a shit about him. personal opinion: obviously great if Ross is freed. it shouldn’t be a campaign issue tho. the pressure should be consistently full force on the current administrationβ€”whoever that is.
He's going to be The President more likely to protect Bitcoin Rights for all Americans. You might not like him, or you disagree with him, is he ideal, no but he's the preferred candidate to protect our Bitcoin. You can say you're an anarchist, or a Communist, whatever, or that it won't effect you but trust me it will. You think you can absolve yourself by not participating but unfortunately The Reality as it currently is, is that one person will become President, and that person will impact our ability to use Bitcoin freely without hindrance.
I'd rather live in a country where people can gamble their money than have the government coddle us, and wrap us in bubble wrap yelling to us that we can't use Bitcoin, or Monero, etc. He doesn't have to do anything for Bitcoin, he could tax it for all I care but that is preferred over the other side who wants to completely BAN it. That being said the ideal situation is Cryptocurrency fully legalized, and untaxed.
Before I say anything else - love your work! Regarding the election, although you are technically voting for the guy whose kid launched a ridiculous shitcoin, in reality you are voting for thousands of political appointees who will take the reins of the administrative state (the real deep state) and hopefully use that power to guide us toward a bitcoin friendly regulatory environment. Think SEC, think banking regulators, think IRS.... And I know - Bitcoin doesn't care. But if you and your family happen to live in a Bitcoin-hostile locale, you would care. The alternative is KYC, non-custodial wallets being removed from the Google and Apple stores, the criminalization of digital private property.
some in bitcoin land and shitcoin land think way too highly of themselves and their interests. I posted this in different thread but it applies here as well. --------- It is a cash grab but I highly doubt Trump is sitting around thinking about shit coins as a way to get money this was obviously done by his team. In the grand scheme of things bitcoiners and shitcoiners need to understand that Trump plays to the largest segments of his audience and thats not bitcoin or crypto. People need to judge him on it after he gets elected. I wouldn't have done it because its not a good look because it looks exactly like what you said.
