> Everyone who studies BTC for 100 hours buys a lot of it. Not me. I've been studying and using Bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies) since 2013. From 2013 to 2017, I was a huge fan of Bitcoin, and evangelized for it frequently. That changed in 2017, when a cabal of developers began stifling new features and upgrades, in favor of second layer solutions (which they offered for profit). They heavily censored and banished anyone who opposed them from the main forums at the time. (A practice they continue to this day). As a result, eight years later, Bitcoin still doesn't have the features required for practical "electronic cash": privacy, fungibility, low fees, fast settlement, decentralized control, etc. People who actually want usable "electronic cash" buy Monero.
