The nocoiner syndrome is not simply having no Bitcoin. Most people on this planet as of this writing have no Bitcoin. Some don't know about it, some have not invested enough time to learn about it, and some do not want or need it for its properties.
The nocoiner syndrome is a condition under which a person perceives early adopters of Bitcoin as immoral. Often, this condition stems from their perception that early Bitcoin adopters in their vicinity have quickly become extremely wealthy, by not producing anything, "just buying Bitcoin". The root cause of this syndrome is perception of a "missed train" and further justification of why Bitcoin itself and also the early adopters are bad, immoral, or misguided.
To be diagnosed with the nocoiner syndrome, individuals must actively oppose and judge Bitcoiners. This often involves hiding trauma from past dismissals of Bitcoin as unworkable or harboring suppressed feelings like 'we missed this train' or 'it is too late.' This leads to animosity towards Bitcoiners.
