It is generally believed that a bitcoiner is anyone who is engaged in any Bitcoin activities, which might include trading, hodling, and promotion. But for me, the real Bitcoiners are those who are passionate about Bitcoin as a decentralized currency that promotes privacy. A Bitcoiner promotes Bitcoin not just for profit-making but to promote the freedom it offers. Anyone who sees Bitcoin as a get-rich-quick scheme is not qualified to be called a Bitcoiner.

According to your view of a Bitcoiner, I believe there aren’t that many Bitcoiners in the market.

If we are honest and dare to admit, I believe that 99% of people are in bitcoin for the profits, not for the decentralized or privacy it brings. That is also why the crowd always gets excited and cheers whenever government declares its support for bitcoin, or a large corporation buys a large amount of bitcoin. If most people valued the decentralization of bitcoin, they wouldn't support it because everyone knows that it would make bitcoin more centralized. But the opposite is happening, most are in favor of this as it will send bitcoin prices soaring.

Everyone says bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme but everyone wants it and believes it will increase x10, x100 in the next decade, which confuses me Grin
