I also think his stunt is hypocritical by the way, and I think he fucked over "monero enthusiasts" a lot more than the "pump & dump" crowd, because the pump& dump crowd is probably playing the market really well right now and making a ton out of these 25% price fluctuations.
Aren't "monero enthusiasts" into monero because of the technology?
Yes, but they like money too. I didn't say he took the tech away from them. But the pump & dump crowd benefitted more from this. You never know which longterm effects this will have.
