A lot (if not most) bitcoiners think they are smarter than all the non-bitcoiners.

Do you object to that?

Let's say they're taking a financial risk which incentivizes (some of) them to study the matter more closely than someone else that is not taking that risk.

Does that mean they're smarter? I don't think so. It's a bet they're willing to take and time will tell who was right.
