We’re not journalists. We’re discussing a subject on a message board.

Besides, my original position was that it was bad form to ask for the exact amount of crypto someone holds.

I don’t ask for the exact amount of stock someone holds in Tesla when they are talking about how great Tesla is.

But Tesla is not a multi-level marketing scheme.

But yes, maybe it would be better to say "none", "a bit", or "my retirement depends on it". (or whatever scale you want to use)

Just because you're not a journalist doesn't mean you can't be ethical.

I think this is my favourite HN comment of the year so far!
