New Years Resolution: when I talk about technologies, I will avoid demeaning the users of those technologies. I will also avoid calling technologies "dead", "dying" or other words meant purely to demoralize users of the technology.

Wait, ... are purely speculative investors also “users” of bitcoin technology? I might have to make an exception to your proposed rule...

There's a difference between the investors and the people working on the tech. But yeah, you're mostly right.

I think criticizing the speculation bubble (which would be the same with another crypto-currency) is not the same as criticizing users of a specific technology because you think they should use your favourite one instead.

The main overlap is the people working on Bitcoin tech. I think it's fine to criticize the speculative bubble, but there's some bleedover into the people working on it that I should have been more careful about.
