There's no such thing as "perfectly written" when the article is completely out of touch with reality, unless you're evaluating it as a work of fiction.

You can't just make shit up and expect to be taken seriously when we've got objectively measurable standards to compare to.

You say Bitcoin has existential flaws that are hindering its adoption?

Prove it.

There are lots of things we can objectively measure in the Bitcoin network - number of wallet client downloads, blockchain.info wallet users, transactions on the network, etc.

Oh, so all those metrics are still increasing exponentially, consistent with an adoption curve that apparently doesn't give a shit about your pet concern? No wonder all you've got is rhetoric instead of evidence.

::Sigh:: Alright, so here is a project for you. Close BitcoinTalk and GitHub for 5 minutes. There is a world out there with people in it. I know, IRL. It's crazy. Careful, the sun is bright. All those people you see, that's our ideal market, you know, mass adoption. What you'll want to do is realize the demographics on Bitcoin (metrics) hold up my argument that 28 years old, college education, white males are 80%+ of the current Bitcoin demographic. When BTCFoundation tweets a chart of the women in crypto and they ALL easily fit on it because there are 40 of them, something is wrong. No one questioned the protocol. My new concern is how defensive you became because someone asked some questions you don't have answers for. Questions that requires you to get out of your office area and contemplate. It's posts like this that gives articles like that the support. Out of touch. Fight it, deny it, anything but take ownership and provide leadership.

Bravo.
