What strikes me so funny about this comment is that Taleb fans sound like cult followers in my experience.
What really caught my eye wasn't that, it was the footnote.
Nassim Taleb said crypto was less trustworthy than the Mafia
He might have been referring to altcoins.

He may be but I don't think he separates bitcoin from crypto. Maybe he's referring to cryptography lol.
I can't overstate how disappointed I was in this man based on the friends of mine that think he's a genius. I'm not disappointed that he isn't a bitcoiner. I'm disappointed at how weak his reasons seem to be. It is very obvious his issues are more personal and ego related than logical. Covid mania broke him.

Exactly. The ego on this guy is something.
