I don’t throw pedophile accusations around lightly. Being a pedophile is about as morally reprehensible as a person can be. When it comes to Bitcoin, I care about people’s moral compass. Most people have a reasonably good instinct for judging others’ intentions. They can usually tell who is acting in good faith and who isn’t. If I invite people to my home for dinner, and some behave respectfully while others trash the place, and a third group makes excuses for the people behaving like pigs, I’ll throw both groups out. Only the people who show respect are welcome to stay. I apply the same principle to my node, and I think most reasonable people do as well. Bitcoin has never been welcoming to scammers or bad actors. That has always been part of its culture. It’s one of the reasons Bitcoin is often called ethical money. Its incentives reward people with a low time preference and punish the short-term mindset fostered by fiat. So the question is simple: which one are you? Do your actions match your claims? Are we fighting for the same thing? That’s what matters to me.
