As for me, I used to think Bitcoin was neat before I identified as a leftist, but then I took a cold hard look at it as a cultural and economic force instead of a technology and realized that Bitcoin is really just not that great. It's a wonderful speculative asset, technological curiosity, and tool in criminal activity, and in realizing this I lost interest.
