I am often thankful for my very red-neck upbringing and my father who didn't graduate HS. I have a natural skepticism of authority and clout seekers.
Over the years I have been very pleased to have my skepticism proven correct over and over again. Don't get me wrong. I'm not anti-intellectual but over the past 20 years the educated class has made some pretty bad calls on many topics. One is bitcoin.
Who? so I checked, Turkish born Iranian-American.... If that guy doesn't have an agenda, I don't know who does... People also often confuse stupidity and education, these two have nothing to do with each other. One can be highly educated and still be a dumb-ass, and there are plenty of very smart people that never been on a college campus.
Have they ever made a bitcoin transaction? Have they ever made a Lightning network transaction?
Ever used a Satscard? Ever dice-rolled a seed phrase? Coinjoined? Ever used Stacker News (a lightning-based website)? Ever read the manual for a hardware wallet? Ever traveled with Bitcoin?
Memorized a seed phrase? Paid someone in Bitcoin? Ever used it for savings? ???
I think this guy is called Dr Doom. He has been a long time critic of bitcoin. If you listen to the video, his only positive comment is something like "it is a store of value for some people."
Great. When the staunchest of haters finally throw in the towel we will no longer be early.
Didn't he launch a sh$tcoin?
I doubt it

His parents were also Orthodox Jewish which means he definitely has no agenda lol

The people who say it is 'useless'...

I guess he’s living under a rock, when he’s even unaware of Microstrategy’s usecase: financializing Bitcoin in the mainstream economic infrastructure.
FWIW, I still think that Nouriel Roubini is mostly useless.
He will have to eventually get on the boat.
All the non believers will eventually have to eat their words.
Lots of humble pie to be had.

This dude makes his own shitcoins and says bitcoin is useless what a quack
