I think this guy is holding bitcoin and causing FUD to get cheap coins. I think he is trying to capitalize on the revelations that Hearn supposedly "dumped" his coins, and trying to make the price collapse even further, so he can essentially accumulate cheap coins... maybe because he thinks that it will shoot up in price during the halving season.

I liked Tiraspol's reply to Wadhwa.



I don't think anybody is really in a position to declare that Bitcoin is dead or dying yet. It has grown from nothing to something fairly substantial, and no one really knows how much it will grow in the coming years...



(My prediction would be worth less than zero)



Many of us hanging on (HODLing) BTC may be "loyal", "greedy" or even "stupid", but who is this guy to say that? He perhaps reveals more of himself than he intends... ...I liked Tiraspol's reply to Wadhwa.I don't think anybody is really in a position to declare that Bitcoin is dead or dying yet.

Everyone in the community is either a trader, either a currency investor, either a technology investor, either someone who wants to protect their money from inflation. Some of us are even all four combined. Which means that we indeed are greedy. A nice part of the world is greedy. Not all of it though. But the bitcoin community is full of greedy people. That's a fact.

Now yes, a nice cut of the bitcoin community doesn't look smart to me either. Sometimes I wonder if it's the same in Wall Street. I mean, yeah it would seem natural that anyone greedy would like to try investing and/or trading, regardless of their mental capabilities.



So yeah, this Vivek Wadhwa is not completely wrong. I mean, yes, we're all greedy, that's one thing, and there also are dumbasses in our greedy ranks. Where he's wrong is when he assumes that any bitcoin loyalist must necessarily be a dumbass. Price manipulation again, as someone said earlier? Maybe.

Or maybe he's holding some ETH/Dash and he's hoping it will replace BTC. Or maybe he's holding some ETH/Dash and he's hoping it will replace BTC.

Were all loyal to Bitcoin due to the fact that we see how great it is and what potential is has in order to improve even further from how unique it is but most uneducated people still don't get it mainly due to the fact that education wasn't thought to them correctly in order to see what we all see.

Stupid for supporting bitcoin? Nah. Stupidity in other ways? Hell yes. And greedy? Oh my.



The fact that it is a public forum means that you also get a good representation of the avarage person in the world (atleast those that are interested in bitcoin).



This automatically means that you also get the stupid and greedy people.



The people that have stuck around here for two years during price declines, I would not call those stupid or greedy.
