Where did you get this chart from? At least from my perception I feel like it is more on the conservative side of things. I don't know many liberals that study or like bitcoin.

I remember this from a survey that was done recently, but I don't remember who did it exactly. Part of the issue is that "liberal" has become very poorly defined in American politics.

My suspicion is that this chart is very misleading. There's no obvious answer for libertarians, so they likely chose either "very conservative" or "very liberal" or "neutral".

Agreed. We discussed this before. You said you would select very liberal and I said I would select neutral.

I agree it was definitely an oversight to exclude libertarian from the options. The two axis political spectrum chart would've probably been more informative.

This chart is pointless. There are no libertarians on it.
That's like trying to find out whether people whose name starts with a letter earlier or later in the alphabet are more into Bitcoin and concluding Bitcoin is balanced across the political spectrum.
