I remember when JorgeStolfi pretended to be unbias towards Bitcoin, and actually enjoyed his rational counter-arguments against BTC.

Me too. But we need to be more understanding though. As human beings, we are all influenced by our emotions and biasness.
When started off, one may be rational. But when nasty comments from others come in, one tend to sway towards a particular view and fortify it. By that time, even when presented with concrete facts, one remains adamant on the view, refusing to admit the inital view was wrong.

You do realize that goes both ways, right?

Of course, though it takes lots of self-cultivation to achieve non-biasness.

Yip It does. Bitcoin was too good to be true. I was like Jorge but I owned Bitcoin before I siding with the cave bears. It was the loss of $100 of thousand that made me reconsider my position and find a logic structure to support it.

Knowing how absurd fiat is I can't but believe Crypto will succeed. In my view the earth isn't flat any more.
