Some of us have maintained a strong anti-Bitcoin position at all times.

[edit] David Gerard comes to mind - author of Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain and Libra Shrugged - and HN user (dgerard I think) (https://davidgerard.co.uk/)

More recently Amy Castor, also an HN user (amycastor) (https://amycastor.com/)

And of course Bitfinex’d is back and public again on Twitter. (https://twitter.com/Bitfinexed)




/r/buttcoin has memes but it also has some pretty serious discussions


One thing I really appreciate about them is unlike literally every other crypto sub, they’re not an echo chamber. Nobody as far as I can tell is ever banned for being pro-crypto, or posting pro-crypto content. If they’re hard-core shills or brigading they get downvoted or get slapped with a playful flair (“warning, I have the brain worms” is my favorite haha).

As such it gets a lot of pro-crypto folks participating to get a different perspective. It’s not high brow HN level discourse but to your point a lot of serious stuff ends up there.

Considering the topic it’s pretty balanced.
