A high IQ, high energy Bitcoin-loving
warrior who knows that most any other coin has been created to steal money from the ignorant. They are considered to be well versed, heavily educated and hated by scammers and shillers. A bitcoin maximalist will come in hot in
almost any discussion and will answer coherently, due to their likely thousands of hours of learning and research on Bitcoin and alts.
Quick to call out BS from scammers and shillers who are focused on luring
un-knowledgable newbies into buying their alt-coin(coins made after Bitcoin)
aka "Shitcoins"
Sarah: "It's great to see such a vibrant and open community developing Ethereum. I think I'd like to get involved."
Steve: "You do realize that Bitcoin has 98% dominance. All other shit coins will go to
zero, why bother with Ethereum?"
Sarah: "What evidence do you have that Ethereum will go to
zero? Secondly, the DeFi applications are cool, not to mention there are countless applications being built on it, I feel Ethereum will continue to have a bright future."
Steve: "Bitcoin was the first to solve the notorious Double-Spend problem. Ethereum was a pre-mined ICO, so you'
re essentially paying for
something that the Ethereum Devs printed out of thin air to get rich. Not to mention Ethereum is near impossible to
run a full node, and it has a figurehead that calls all the shots. Bitcoin is immutable and the code cannot be changed without everyone agreeing, and it has no figurehead."
Sarah: "
Wow, I didn't know that! You sound like a Bitcoin Maximalist Steve, I think you just made me into
one too! How much time did you spend learning all this stuff?"
Steve: "I spent years soaking up as much
knowledge about Bitcoin, and there is still things I have
left to learn, it's crazy! Being a Bitcoin Maximalist is tough work, but I'm learning new stuff every
day! Glad to have you on board Sarah!"
