In this video, I discuss Jason Calacanis's recent tweet about "building a better Bitcoin" and "restarting the game."
Calacanis has to be one of the most annoying venture guys I have ever come across. I remember watching him in the podcasts in the 2010s and thinking... what a douchebag.
This video breaks down the category mistake Jason is making suggesting tech getting replaced applies to bitcoin.

I too am a J-Cal loather. @gmd is a fan. Although I suspect he mostly appreciates that he's "raw" - which is an admirable thing on the right person.

Haha it's true I liked him before because at some startup sac events a founder was raving about him and how helpful he was.
I've come around to somewhat loathing him however! He's rather annoying and talks too much on the podcast, although I suspect moderating those personalities is more difficult than it seems. I do appreciate his willingness to push back against David Sacks and now be the somewhat contrarian now that the All-in-pod is fully onboard the MAGA / Putin train.
I'm definitely team Palmer Luckey who hilarious hates him with an admirable passion!

I like him, but as a personality, not as an advisor. Perhaps a reverse JCal index would be profitable.

Does everyone need to try creating a sh$tcoin before understanding that Bitcoin cannot be recreated?

You think he's doing this because he doesn't get it? I don't. He's a scammer. Period. Dude would lie to anyone to make a buck. He's a slime ball
