I heard some people considering me as being M. Popescu.
I don't know why 😂 because I still didn't reached that level of maximalism.
Anyways... this article is quite hilarious. Maybe Lopp have some regrets because Casa start using shitcoins?
If you are against maximalists you are against freedom.
Bitcoin is here today exactly because maximalists exist and defend bitcoin from shitcoiners no matter what.

i kind of miss mircea - although he was a pitiless character, his roguish humour and radicalism was unique in the space - his was one of the voices i would return to on the subject of Bitcoin, which was the best section to sift thru on Trilema - well, that and the laughably bad porn he'd intermittently post...
and you're right - he could see the direction of travel with stark clarity and didn't waste time playing nice to get along, with just about anyone - you can like or dislike him or his views, but he could see the future was up for grabs for those smart and strong enough to claim it - it was inspiring to me, as a noob back then.

I agree with this. Hate swiftly descends on nearly anyone working in/on bitcoin. It seems like bitcoin has gotten big enough to have red and blue bitcoiners.
