I am trying to understand why so many people call maxi Bitcoiners toxic.
As I did not feel this at all after lurking around here for one week now; In fact, I learned way more practical things here than in noisy Twitter or any discords 🤔

Because usually the maxis are very toxic when somebody just mention something about shitcoins or any other deviation from what really matter (Bitcoin). You really need to dive into deep hole of bitcoin and bitcoin memes to understand this aspect.

Thanks, I was exploring all the so-called web3 tools last year, I had fun at first, but then I realized that it did not solve my problems and kept draining my attention with the next "shining things."
And the last draw to me is the censorship in tornado cash. What a joke. Then I was back to explore Bitcoin, the only tool to stay sovereign.
