I don't understand - is your logic that frustration means you didn't make money? If you made money off bitcoin would the hate be more or less warranted? I'm confused.

Logic being if you held bitcoin you would be incentivized to read more about it and learn vs. being ideologically opposed and dismissing it like what no-coinists here do.

I don't understand - the two things you are saying are not mutually exclusive. You could hold bitcoin, make money off bitcoin, understand bitcoin and still be ideologically opposed.

Ah, yes! People with no financial interest are the ones with conflicts of interest! Better buy some Bitcoin to have a real rational take.

Read the follow up comments and don't jump to conclusions. I know you are biased but try to have an open mind.

Yes you can. But those are the minority. People who are ideologically opposed typically don't invest in bitcoin - and over time become salty as they realize what they missed out on.
