Agree on all counts. Pressure Bitcoin adoption when one calculates that such pressure could result in something good for Bitcoin.

I feel that in some cases, the pressure is applied incorrectly and ends up hurting Bitcoin instead.

For example, when I wanted to make a post about PPQ in the Bitcoin Reddit, the mod refused to post because PPQ wasn't "Bitcoin only". However, when my Altcoin competitors want to post in a whole bunch of cryptocurrency reddits, they get huge encouragement and approval from those subreddits, gaining hundreds of real customers.

So I'm the good guy being "Bitcoin first" and yet it's never good enough for the some in Bitcoin community. Meanwhile, my competitors run laps around me in a marketing sense because the other communities are not as gated. Furthermore, those communities don't like the arrogance of some in the Bitcoin community and paint me that way as well, rejecting my posts in those subreddits as well.

This actually happened to me. I couldn't post in the /r/bitcoin reddit, nor could I post in the /r/cryptocurrency reddit. Hilarious self-own by Bitcoin purists.
