What a dumb article, really. Sure, it reminds of a few (well known) good practices, but the rest is just crap.
As much as I love Bitcoin and wish it can succeed as becoming the universal global currency, I will never be a "maxi".
Bitcoin maximalism is not only absurd and counter-productive, it tends to become a weird and annoying sect. "21 rules", like in "10 commandments"? Fuck that, Bitcoin is not a religion.
Want Bitcoin to succeed? Teach people how and why it's a better form of money. And stop with this stupid "hodl" thing. The only word that matters is "use", not trade or hold.
Fuck that, Bitcoin is not a religion.
No, Bitcoin is a cult... of maximalism. You like it or not, this is it. Live with it.

I prefer hoard over hodl, and hoarding is bitcoin's primary and most important use case. In fact all bitcoin are being hoarded at all times. "Use" is just the brief moment it's transferred from one hoarder to another. "Hoard" is the only word that matters. "Use" is almost inconsequential.
