"I love Bitcoin, buy my shitcoin"

The affinity scammers dominated the last cycle. How do we prevent them from dominating this cycle?

It seems to work itself out naturally. I am confident this cycle will look quite different than the last. I am ready to kick back and watch the show.

Why don’t you care about opsec? Why don’t you care about decentralization? Why do you need a new security for your business model why can’t you earn bitcoin? Why can’t you raise funds?

Some slapping might come in handy https://image.nostr.build/9dfe76fd028067bc7e97529768b1e34cd2392803eb52eeb4be6ff6fbab4efc09.jpg

Can we reach their stakeholders, the people they are most directly scamming? This cycle there's both a clear retail and clear VC component. If we can expose them, and their house of cards, maybe their marks won't be fooled?

We don't. Scammers gonna scam and rubes gonna get duped. Continue to educate wherever possible, and "he who has ears to hear, let him hear!" Won't save everybody. Bitcoin is an IQ test.

You can't stop people from touching the stove. There are some powerful people out there that want to control all the UTxOs. They can't, but they'll employ all sorts of tactics in trying. All we can do is call out the risks & scams as they pop up & help those who respect our word.

It will be: "I love bitcoin, buy my ETF shares" The ETF affinity scams will be of the order of billions of dollars, and there is probably no stopping them.

The scammers will stop when the sun rises in west and sets in the east. When the season go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves.

education is pretty much the only way right?

I recall this quote from someone: Shitcoiners ARE into Bitcoin. They're just into YOUR bitcoin. That stuck.

I don't think there's any way to prevent ALTs from gaining traction during this bull market. My plan is to take advantage and use a small amount of cash to ride the wave, then cash out and buy BTC.

Education will help some. Getting burned will help others.
