If you were in #crypto before it was called “crypto,” chances are you got your start as a #Bitcoin nut.
People diverged from there:

- Some stuck to only #Bitcoin (maximalists)
- Some ventured a bit and came to love a few other #cryptoassets (mostmalists)
- Some ventured to explore the full world of programmable value, often with #Ethereum as the gateway (polycoiners)
What’s fascinating to me is #mostmalists and #polycoiners largely all still love Bitcoin as an economic and technological system, even though many have had falling-outs maximalists.
To me it’s sad (and counterproductive) that we’ve become more divided than united, even though our ideals are more aligned than they are w/ the 99% that remains “off-crypto,” and has yet to be convinced. Bickering amongst ourselves is not very convincing, it’s confusing.
But hey, most of the non-converts are likely not on #cryptotwitter, and if crypto gets big enough we’ll all be buried in such low layers so as to be mostly culturally irrelevant 🤷‍♂️
