Bitcoiners tend to be optimistic people.
You need to believe in paradigm shifts. That the solution is true and not just a mirage designed to manipulate you.
You need to have a large degree of vision, openness and faith. This is why Bitcoin attracts a lot of Christians. They are familiar with employing faith.
Many people are trapped in bottomless jaded cynicism - and rightly so! In many ways the world has conspired against you. The manipulation and lies of the world can seem endless.
Be careful. Too much cynicism and you will refuse to accept that a “solution” to the control system can even exist in the first place.
At a deep emotional level you refuse to believe something true can exist.
That something worthy of hope will actually fulfil its promise, rather than being used as the carrot you can never reach.
Such people believe Bitcoin to be nothing more than the honey pot of an intelligence agency, or a Ponzi scheme, or both.
That even if Bitcoin is true, at least I wasn’t mislead and manipulated! At least I wasn’t scammed.
The eternal pessimist will miss Bitcoin.
Be careful what your cynical side can cost you.
