Bitcoin Maximalism Explained (a video) featuring Natalie Brunell
TL;DR: Bitcoin is legit and honest. Altcoins are technobabble, outrights scams, and/or terrible mistakes. Bitcoin maximalists explain why.
Hey Bitcoiners,
Natalie and the Hard Money team have prepared a short explainer video on why “Bitcoin only” makes sense and why avoiding altcoins makes good sense. It’s got lots of great snippets of facts and excerpts from interviews with many prominent bitcoiners. This is a great short video for sharing with friends and acquaintances who ask “why only Bitcoin?”
Enjoy!
Tick tock next block,
