NPCs hate Skycoin. But to be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Skycoin. The project is extremely deep, and without a solid grasp of the technology most of the news and updates will go over a typical NPC’s head. There's also Synth’s weaponized autism which is so deftly woven into the SKY platform. His personal philosophy draws heavily from Jacques Attali’s literature, for instance. Skycoin holders understand this stuff. They have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of the Skycoin project. To realize that it’s not just cryptocurrency. That it’s a comprehensive blockchain ecosystem that makes most other cryptos obsolete.
Skycoin MATTERS. It says something deep about life, freedom, decentralization, and net neutrality. As a consequence, people who fud Skycoin truly ARE idiots. Of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the elegance of the Skyminer, the unlimited power and scalability of Skycoin Fiber, the sophistication of the CX programming language, or the subtlety of the Coin Hours mechanism. I'm smirking right now just imagining these addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as they watch the latest Synth interview, as his genius unfolds on their PC screens. What fools. How I pity them.
And yes, by the way, I do have a Skyminer - one of the thousands already deployed. And yes, I built it myself. But it's for the ladies' eyes only. And even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. But they’ll never hold my antenna or get their greedy paws on my Skycoin hardware wallet. Nothing personal.
