It is easy to dismiss Twitter personalities that have crypto “wrongthink” — it is much more rewarding to believe they have some truths worth knowing. We have quite a ways to go before it is undeniable that crypto has better tech and is more valuable than the centralized meta that mediates culture today.

it always surprises me how quickly crypto disregards criticisms instead of asking “why do they think that? what’s been their experience?” especially when the critic is a thoughtful person (in the case of Jules, I don’t follow Avi).

when crypto is transparent to the end user and gives them benefits beyond what they conventionally use, then they'll go on as if they never doubted it. it's partly why i take the criticism for speaking of ignorance (they're almost always talking about shit like hawk tuah coin and other odious examples but blanketing the whole industry). on rare occasions, you get hard, meaningful critiques, like when @moxie argued that the ethereum ecosystem is way more centralized than we should be comfortable with (and I deeply agree with this POV), but people with reasoned critiques don't generally just call the industry as a whole trash

I think it's a part of the dunk culture of Twitter which encourages folks to take polarizing positions to min-max reach. A lot of this can be solved through one big group therapy session lol (and good product demos/use cases).
