Thanks for the link. I finally read it. I'm new to the btc space tbh, so I think I'll need to read it again ;-) xD But totally get the aversion when it comes to the laser eyes, steak carnivore stuff and memes. Now I'd add stuff like the mandalorian quotes such as "This is the way" I cringe and groan internally when people say that. That whole ethos screams cultish to me. By my very nature I am a non-conformist, so I'm usually repelled when it comes to doing things that everyone else is doing. That's why I'd never put laser eyes on anything lol. When I first saw ppl doing that, I thought wtf are you all doing?! I've got used to seeing it now. I think get why they're doing it but don't think it's anything to do with btc getting to $100k
A couple of points I'm with him on:
  1. people making bitcoin their entire personality
  2. when he said: "Ultimately, Bitcoin is not a lifestyle. Bitcoin is not a steak dinner. Bitcoin is not memes and it’s not laser eyes. Bitcoin is a profoundly useful tool. It is impregnated with some ideology, but it is not the ideology that these people profess. The core Bitcoin values have to do with property rights, individual human dignity, self-determination, privacy, autonomy, and monetary predictability. Bitcoin attracts me for that reason".
