It’s an odd phenomenon: if I tweet anything even slightly crypto-adjacent, my inbox suddenly overflows with grifters—along with thoughtful, well-intentioned people to be sure, but the grifter quotient is quite noticeable. What produces this effect?
Conversation
In general I really like the variability that comes from having a tweet amplified into different communities.
e.g. sometimes I’ll get retweeted into meditation/philosophy spaces and get lots of great responses with a wonderfully different way of seeing the world

Sometimes Weird Anonymous Twitter will notice something I’ve written, and I’ll get to bear witness to a ton of inscrutable but fascinating conversation reliant on mysterious memes!
(I miss the original Weird Sun Twitter)

Sometimes I innocently tweet something about note-taking and I get momentarily connected to this unseen universe of puffed-up productivity gurus marketing themsleves with Three Easy Tips.

That's nothing. BSV people are proud of the micropayments(and nanopayments) functionality and get upset when someone says it hasn't been done yet.
Honestly, you got a few replies. Try tweeting something negative about btc and watch 100s of tweets fly in, replete with "hfsp"s.

I appreciate this response! Helps me sympathize: they think they’ve solved it! I appear dismissive/ignorant. Of course they’d mob!

I don't think that they "think" they've solved it. They 'know' they've solved it and guys at @ElasDigital can prove it. It's not some white paper promise, but working now.
Anyway, same to you. Thanks for your response. Have a good day.

They actually did solve it and we are living proof of that lol, this isn't some racket selling snake oil. Although your initial tweet was mostly philosophical they try to give you (potentially) valuable concrete information. You can think that's weird but they were being helpful

I think it's sarcasm and he knows it's solved all of em do

Sigh.
They have solved it. And you are being dismissive/ignorant now if you haven't bothered to look after all those comments.
Will you look?
