Yes! I think that is largely due to bitcoin being against the orthodox views of society. Those that are drawn to it will likely be more comfortable with novelty in general. This aligns with people with differing views or open minds. The bitcoin space has a much lower level of NPCs than any other circle I've been in.

Are Most Bitcoiners Statists?

I'd be shocked if they weren't mostly statists.

One of the first things that struck me about SN is that while there is a lot of viewpoint diversity, views like mine and yours are often the norm (again, talking about on particular topics not the whole set).
