Bitcoin fanatics are usually proud libertarians. And as far as I can tell, proud libertarians are pretty much just republicans who like drugs, so... I'm not surprised there's overlap in pronoun/mask opinions.

Since people are still replying to this, let me be clear:

Yes, I know how bitcoin works. It's called a joke.

Pointing out that I'm wearing a mask and have pronouns in my bio does not make you look cool.

If you reply and have "bitcoin" in your bio, my robot will autoblock you.

If your web app design means the back button doesn't work your app is, from the user's perspective, broken.

Sorry your notifications are flooded, actually it’s a very valid point. While the idea of @Bitcoin is fantastic, it’s facing a lot of challenges it can’t fulfill.

ahh much better. I now have a bot that will auto-block bitcoin fanboys who reply to me.

The bot searches my replies and blocks accounts with "bitcoin", "hodl" and similar words in the bio 😀

(Don't worry, if I'm already following you it won't block you!)

I wish I wasn’t surprised by this. I promise there are also good people who actually think Bitcoin could be a net positive AND not cause us to self-destruct. Sorry you are being exposed to the rotten underbelly of bitcoin Twitter that comes along with it.

For making a joke about saving the planet by 51% attacking Bitcoin, today I have been called:

- a bigot
- an intellectual pygmy
- a soy boy (several times)
- hypocritical scum
- part of the "SJW climate change pronoun gang"
- a beta male

So that's been fun
