It's a little mean spirited - especially when directed a nocoiners. I'll only use it when someone understands bitcoin well but dismisses it because it isn't perfect in some narrow dimension.
Bitcoin tech. That's what they mean. Its dumb. Or I'm just getting old. Honestly, so many memes are dumb and I think make most people more dumb. People don't read or really have depth of knowledge on most subjects these days. That majority that is. Its never been easier to educate one's self and yet most are too lazy.
Well, but this is a joke, yeah? A meme is some replicable idea that carries meaning. This would have to become a widespread shorthand for understanding philosophers.
This mostly said by shitcoiners now but I'm sure it started with bitcoiners. It leads one to think that we are waiting for a moonshot to sell for fiat. I do not like it and I have never heard a bitcoiner I respect use it.
Yeah, for sure. Like I said, many of these come from a good place but the problem with memes and our culture in general is the memes are shallow and easy to be misunderstood.
I have found many bitcoiners do not realize the cascading effects that cheap credit / fiat have on societies. But... it does not fix everything. I think we agree though. Its blown out.
I love this meme. Possibly my favorite bitcoin meme, but people forget that it was created by a trader and it wasn't about morality.
I take it as an acknowledgement that Gamekyuubi wasn't going to be able to compete with the traders but he didn't have to because he understood the fundamentals.
To me hodl means don't try to be a smarty pants player. Stick with what you understand about bitcoin. It's not a battlecry, it's a reminder that you aren't smarter than everyone else.
Yep. It just depends on your resolution and measurement stick. Pick any 4 year period and I believe it's gone up. This is not a "get rich quick" scheme. It's a "don't get debased" scheme. And there'a 1% chance something better will come along, but probably not sooner than "forever" for most people. I mean if we all get our own personal nuclear reactor and a team of droids to help us beat nature, then there's really no need for money at that point, is there?
