Philosophically, I get your point (and kind of agree: shitcoiners gonna shitcoin). On the other hand, in terms of personal responsibility, I would want the things I touch, if I have control over them, to feed a trajectory of net positive for humanity, which the vast majority of shitcoining is not.
Someone collecting donations for a worthy cause, but in crypto? Idk, it’s tricky. Perhaps they can help a lot of people with that money before it goes to zero. But feeding into a system of scams comes with additional negative externalities that could be largely avoided if their only option was Bitcoin.
Appreciate you being forthright about it, and for making me think.
Still, whenever given the choice… Bitcoin only 🙏
