You're right, but I noticed that some guys is already involved in this crypto space for like 4 to 5 years before joining this forum
The focal point here is not crypto space but bitcoin specifically, and I believe that was the measure through which JJG said, in his statement he said “when they might have gotten involved in bitcoin” and not crypto. When talking bitcoin it should directly be addressed as bitcoin and not just crypto space In order not to contradict or mislead especially the newbies.
