    Marc van der Chijs said, “I don’t think Trump’s speech will gain him a lot of new voters among Bitcoiners.”

    “The other way around, many will now see him for what he really is,” he added. “It was my first time watching him speak live. He sounds like a low IQ conman to me, I wouldn’t believe anything he tells me.”

    Is trump new to anyone? Wow. Yes. Yes, he’s a low IQ conman. Congratulations on sussing it out so quickly, some red state yokels will never grok it.

        Cryto bros aren’t stupid, they are foolish and ignorant. It actually takes quite a bit of intelligence (i.e. can do coding) to do anything with crypto on your own.

          Literally all it takes is a binance account and a down payment and you can make your own cryptocurrency off Ethereum. Thats what most cryptoscams do because it takes almost no time and is crazy easy to start and manipulate.

            But are those who we’re calling crypto bros? For me, it’s the people who set up their own mining rigs.

              Anyone into Cryptocurrencies is a crypto bro. The vast majority of which do not have the means to do any actual mining.

      These are people who think that Musk is an intellect, don’t forget. For every person who notices Trump for what he is, there are 10 sycophants who think he can do no wrong.
