He has now gone from flaunting arrogant ignorance to self-satirizing it.

In fairness, I think the Anti-Cen account *is* satire. The posts are often quite funny pastiches of genuine attempts to troll Bitcointalk.org.

You think?  If so, it’s still a troll—and that would not be the first time I may have been trolled here, though the other one was much less plausible.  Thus, the possibility had occurred to me; but yet every time I have ever imagined that there must be an upper bound on human stupidity, a greater idiot has proved me wrong.

In any case, I am a long term-thinker; and I do anticipate that this thread may be a handy reference.  Much of Anti-Cen’s spew about Bitcoin and Lightning is delivered in such a manner as may be effective FUD to scare and confuse newbies.  That was my first thought when I saw this thread.  There are enough bottom-feeders serving as paid shills to post such things; we don’t need more from someone who does it for jollies due to lack of any higher aim or greater pleasure in life.

Well, anyway, I appreciate the tip.  Perhaps I ought return to my usual occupation of manufacturing MD5 ASICs for Bitcoin mining, or doing carpentry with a screwdriver to put in nails.
