Yes, I would say someone who is all-in on crypto is not good at critical thinking.


Curious - what's your crypto exposure?

I'm starting to diversify into it as a hedge against the collapse of the US dollar. Definitely not all-in though.

I'm anti-fasicist today, but I wonder if I'd be a Muskovite had TradeHill not kept 'my' bitcoins when it closed in the early 2010s.


I've kept a close eye on the crypto world since 2010 or so. I find it fascinating how it continues to draw in rubes.

The only cryptocurrency I've ever personally "owned" was acquired when Roger Ver tipped me a very small amount of bitcoin because when he asked a very stupid question on Reddit and I anonymously answered. I didn't do anything with it.

The question was about gambling. He pretty much asked, "Can't I just put money both sides of the bet and come out on top regardless of outcome?" This anecdote also aligns to "people who are all-in on crypto might lack critical thinking skills."
