Seeing him give a talk in person was quite the experience indeed.
Never really understood the hate he got for writing the ETH book. I read part of it, and he's being intellectually honest from what I read. How Solidity works. How prone it is to bugs. How the ETH mindset is to break things first before trying to resolve it, the opposite of BTC development. It helps to understand the way the ETH guys think. Although I don't agree with the mindset, it's quite interesting.
At the very bottom, they perceived their NgU was threatened by an OG who was lending validity to a competing project by writing a technical manual on it.
In reality, Andreas, like Jack, like many "questioned" bitcoiners could've cashed in astronomically by simply releasing their own coin, token, or alt project. They didn't. That's my litmus test. Andreas remains my all-time favorite bitcoiner.

That's a very reasonable litmus test.
