Calling altcoiners shitcoiners is not only unproductive, it is tribal and ugly. I used to follow and invest in various privacy coins. Nobody ever changed my mind by calling me a shitcoiner.

What Bitcoin Did • Bitcoin Core v30 Explained: Spam, Filters & the Knots Debate | Antoine Poinsot • Watch on Fountain
