No, that's called being critical, not cringe. If nobody had critiques, there would be no improving.
I wish more bitcoiners to criticize bitcoin from a bitcoiner's perspective. Too many critiques are dismissed because they come from "outsiders". But many of their complaints have a nugget of truth to them.
Publishing an hour long podcast about how someone earned $150 in sats over 2 years of work writing articles. And pretending its revolutionary.
Your perspective is all off. The sats aren't where the value of SN is.
Pretending btc is inevitable or already won the global reserve currency status
That's your echo chamber speaking. "Bitcoiners" don't necessarily all agree on this.
Refusing to acknowledge how BTC has been supplanted as free market money for Darknet Markets. But still call BTC freedom money even tho people use privacy coins when freedom is actually at stake.
First sentence is simply false and cannot be proved. Second sentence is HTP thinking.
Overall, anytime bitcoiners act delusional or LARP.
Look in the mirror

IDK how you can believe it is false that BTC is supplanted in darknets. Everywhere that accepts BTC, puts a tax on it so the admins can pay for the CoinJoins to required to clean it. That puts it a second-rate currency in my book. IF they accept BTC at face-value or at a discount, its because freedom isn't actually at stake.
Saying something is HTP thinking when, in fact, its the way things are right now, is cringe.
