Imo the biggest contributor to the disconnect between the awful vibes on CT vs the pretty bullish reality of crypto adoption rn is the anon CT professional critic class
Crypto, seemingly more than any other industry, has this weird phenomena where there's a class of ppl who log on every day for years just to be permanently bearish and hate on everything. They seem to absolutely despise the industry, but for some reason they won't leave and are in fact some of the most active posters on this app
Not sure how to explain this, but my best hypothesis is just bitterness. They watched a bunch of ppl get rich around them while they were sidelined or in the wrong coins, and it's easier to blame their failure on "crime" rather than face their own mistakes. They stick around because despite their professed hatred for the space, they're still hoping it'll some day make them rich
While I sympathise with their plight, and criticism is important and often warranted, it'd also be great if CT was more reflective of the real bullish stuff that those of us who spend all our time talking to founders hear about every day
How do we fix this?
