Most people in the Bitcoin space are just bitter about life and society, so they gravitate towards Bitcoin as a way of showing their dissatisfaction. Virtue signaling, really. Don’t believe me? Look at Ron Paul’s supporters, and look at how many have leaned heavily into Bitcoin.
The small minority, like yours truly, is actually interested in the technology and works in software. But that is the minority - the overwhelming majority here have never even purchased anything substantial with Bitcoin, like hiring someone for freelance work.
