This type of talk also neglects the fact that a lot of people just can't for a variety of reasons. It's weird to insist that a lifestyle you enjoy is actually the only purpose in life for all people, like, my dude, we all have different paths 🤷‍♀️

Exactly. One size fits all is the opposite of the Golden Rule. It seems like someone who has been into Bitcoin as long as HODL has would understand Austrian econ better...reading Rothbard is like reading a libertarian manifesto.

Oh, shit! I didn't know Rothbard had an actual book with the words Libertarian Manifesto in the title! LMAO

HODL has already admitted that he just had friends to convince him. It was most likely confirmation bias all the way to the top. Me personally have never met or convinced a single person IRL to HODL bitcoin despite my best efforts. I have only been convinced otherwise.
