So is that interview legitimate? If so that guy gives zero fucks and is a straight internet gangster. Not my type person, but I kinda admire him.
Mircea Popescu (MP) has a core constitution which is that every person should be responsible for themself. And he originally was adamant that he would attack any Bitcoin fork that raised the block size. He also appears to be trying to stay relevant.
FTFY.
I like Mircea. As an interesting anomaly. He's bright & eloquent, which is to say his psychopathologies are curiously well-defended. He used to be witty, too, but didn't we all?
Dollars to doughnuts he's trolling/taking credit for others' work.
