256 sats \ 11 replies \ @Aardvark 4 Dec 2024 \ on: What I love about @darthcoin alter_native
I really want to learn more about bitcoin. Like a lot more. I don't exactly enjoy being called an idiot, but to be fair, I kind of am one.
He is an absolute fountain of knowledge, and despite his prickly attitude, an absolute boon to the community.
I'm not going to knock anyone who doesn't want to interact with someone who is openly hostile to them, but I've also been called way worse things by people who have literally nothing to add to any conversation.
This is exactly my attitude as well.
One other point that Darth deserves a lot of credit for is that he doesn't carry over hostility from one conversation to the next (despite his record keeping).
You can get in a nasty altercation with him on one post, but the next time you interact he will be fully willing to help or compliment what you wrote.

That's true. That is nice. And it's helpful because we can all get fired up at times. Right now He seems to think I made this post to troll. I am not sure why it is hard to understand that I appreciate his contributions and I don't like his approach to communication. I want to express both sides.
reply
You'll notice that I didn't credit him with interpreting people's motives very well. He tends towards very uncharitable interpretations.
Still, you can learn to interact with someone who doesn't hold grudges.
There have been a few stackers who just completely soured on me after a single disagreement and refuse to have civil interactions now. That's much more childish behavior than anything I've observed from Darth.
reply
I agree. I think that is why I keep trying to make friends with him as much as he doesn't seem to want to let my appreciation in. Relationships and human interaction is complicated. I love my wife so much, and she drives me nuts sometimes. And she knows it. And I drive her nuts. It's not binary. He thinks my compassionate is fake. And that hurts but it's part of my growth. He helps me grow a lot.

Very few stackers here know how to use me. Literally use me.
Because I dedicate all my time 24/7 to Bitcoin and to help people.
Asking me questions about bitcoin it makes me happy and I can use my vast knowledge about it.
But instead some stackers prefer to eat my butt and learn nothing from me.
Just imagine... I have 12+ years of Bitcoin knowledge that nobody is asking nothing...

You've essentially created an entire blueprint for bitcoin. I'm positive I'll have questions in time, but it's almost pointless for me to ask anything right now when I've barely scratched the surface. I figure if you spent the time to write all of this down, I should spend the time reading it before asking something you've probably already answered.

I should spend the time reading it before asking something you've probably already answered.
The right decision. Anybody that want to start using Bitcoin, if they spend at least 1h/day reading some of my guides, will have a really smooth sailing on the Bitcoin waters.

Thank you. I know you are a valuable resource. I know you help so many people and I really appreciate it.

Another POV...
Some other influencers are making now "paid services" for Bitcoin Q&A courses...
So people are going to pay valuable sats for the same classes they can get just asking me on SN for free.
I never asked for any sats in exchange for all my free advice on SN.
I always answer any BTC question with all the info I know about it and never ask for any sat.
It blows my mind how people can be so gullible and waste their sats !
FFS I dedicate all my time to Bitcoin from 2019 and people see me as "the bad guy"...
I literally dedicate 24/7 to answering BTC questions and people still see me as the "toxic guy" that wants to fuck the world entirely....
I wonder if somebody really take a look at how many BTC guides I wrote
https://darth-coin.github.io/
Are over 60+ guides FFS and all about how to fucking use Bitcoin day to day!
All guides are written based on my personal testing and hours and hours of testing.
I wonder how many of those assmilkers could do such thing...
But ofc you see me as the "bad guy" molesting the snowflakes assmilkers...
reply
I don't believe in good and bad guys. I appreciate your work. No need to convince me. See original post. Thank you again for your work.

Thank you for sharing a real response to my post. I agree that he is a wealth of knowledge.
