these are not devs, nor early contributors to bitcoin.. just some pompous academic parasites.

and lol most of them from MUUURICAAAAA Cheesy

Andrew Miller is sound. Vijay Pande IIRC is a philosopher/politologist/sociologist. Other than Vitalik, I don't know much of the rest but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, except for Peter R. whose ramblings have completely discredited him already. I hope he doesn't ruin the publication with made up pie charts and stupid made up markets that don't exist to support his political ramblings about XT.

relevant cryptographic material are only to be within the scope of cypherpunks (szabo et al.) and 20+ years experienced researchers with actual published WP on the subject.
relevant bitcoin material are only to be within the scope of core devs, and more commonly to real sound contributors to bitcoin.
(and not to some teenage scammer running out of money that vitalik is)

bitcoin is about trustlessness, so im very not going to fall for the USG academics giving lessons and asking to trust their judgement about how relevant a piece might be, and especially regarding bitcoin.
seriously, when it comes to my precious, this kind of circlejerking initiative is typical menthal diarrhea.
even MP seems more legit.
