There is a bit of lore that goes: every bear market must have a sacrifice.
I was thinking the sacrifice for this bear market might be Saylor, but then Luke went crazy with the forkcoin thing and so now it's looking like he is our sacrifice.
Who will be the sacrifice for the next bear market, whenever that will be?
Colcard,BTCPay Server, Bitcoin Red Team, Shutdown of lnp2pbot
Wild prediction: Antoine Poinsot gets the BIP54 consensus cleanup merged, then somehow betrays Bitcoin in the future.
Cold card is the sacrifice?
May be @k00b or @BTCsessions
Wasn't Saylor the sacrifice THIS bear market? (He sold Bitcoin)
NVK gone, maybe a bunch of podcasters to go too.
Next bear won't have many left, might have to throw a few plebs under the bus.
If you ain’t selling bitcoin then you got too much fiat!
Saylor and especially the stretch scam cannot survive a true downturn. I wouldn't underestimate his ability to always come up with new grifts to prolong the last one - but I think a true 2022/2023-style change in the exchangerate would be too much for him
That probably means it happens in the next crash. I can see him spinning up even more complex instruments during the next run up, too.
I mean the cold card/nvk was a sacrifice. I think this bear market is nearing an end soon. I do agree a sacrifice needs to be made. Technically bailey was a sacrifice, but who knows if he will face the penalty for what he has done.
This bear market isn't over yet. We don't yet know who the real sacrifice is. It could be any of us.
The next bear market won't need a sacrifice :D
The next one will probably be an AI
