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!"
