maximalism is and is not

[109]
stick around until the end of the video
[111]
also guys take a pause and look at that
[114]
cute little gray thumbs up button and
[116]
then smash it
[117]
repeat smash the like button okay let's
[120]
get into it
[121]
first let's start with the definition of
[123]
bitcoin maximalist
[124]
according to liquid.com a bitcoin
[126]
maximalist believes with unwavering
[128]
conviction
[128]
that bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency
[131]
in fact
[132]
only currency worth caring about most
[134]
maximalists also feel strongly the
[136]
altcoins which are any cryptocurrency
[138]
that's not bitcoin
[140]
are not just technically flawed but are
[142]
morally
[143]
questionable the irony is so thick here
[146]
that you can cut it with
[148]
a knife or maybe a small sword but we
[150]
will get to that later
[151]
the long and short of it is this a
[153]
bitcoin maximos believes
[154]
all other coins will die ugly deaths and
[157]
at the end of the day
[158]
bitcoin will be the only cryptocurrency
[160]
that survives because it is both
[162]
technically and morally
[165]
superior you can kind of think of them
[168]
as a bunch of little crypto hitlers if
[170]
you will
[170]
so really from a strict interpretation
[173]
orange coin good
[175]
fiat bad altcoins bad you to swap djinns
[178]
bad but there's a whole lot more here to
[181]
unpack
[182]
in order to understand why i have such
[183]
huge problems with them
[185]
and i think this is what it all boils
[187]
down to
[188]
most maximalists cheer for all coins to
[191]
fail
[192]
they want to will them to failure in the
[195]
crypto market where one third of all the
[197]
money is in altcoins
[199]
the btc maximalist wants to see altcoins
[201]
go bust and their investors
[203]
to reap certain doom and they're
[205]
extremely outspoken about that i never
[207]
understood wanting others to fail
[209]
and yet that's exactly what the average
[210]
maximalist wants they
[212]
want pain and financial suffering to go
[214]
to people why
[216]
because they invested in something other
[218]
than bitcoin
[219]
and that drives me insane i don't want
[221]
the dollar to fail i don't want the u.s
[223]
economy to fail
[224]
like those are not great things in the
[226]
world a lot of people
[227]
will get hurt but the maximalist take is
[230]
this
[231]
it's their choice they deserve to get
[233]
hurt for doing that
[235]
let me relate this to a crazy story that
[236]
happened to me just the other day
[238]
now instead of me telling you the story
[240]
just check out this tick tock i made
[242]
about it on monday
[243]
after my last tick tock something pretty
[245]
dramatic happened all i did was stop at
[246]
the gas station get a slim jim
[247]
and some ranch sunflower seeds as i'm
[249]
picking up my items a man runs to the
[250]
store and says there's a guy overdosing
[252]
outside in the parking lot
[253]
he told the guy in the store call 911
[256]
get somebody out here quick because this
[257]
guy is dying
[258]
so i'm sitting there i'm looking outside
[260]
i'm looking at the guy at the store i'm
[261]
looking outside i'm looking at the guy
[262]
at the store
[263]
and he literally is not doing anything
[265]
so i looked at him and said
[267]
hey dude there's somebody dying outside
[269]
do you think you want to call 9-1-1
[270]
and he had the most non-responsive look
[272]
in his face and i said
[274]
i'll call him okay and he said yeah you
[277]
go ahead and call him buddy so i call
[278]
9-1-1 and i stay outside while they're
[280]
doing cpr to this guy and you know
[282]
he obviously overdosed on some pretty
[284]
heavy stuff i know what it is i don't
[285]
think i'd say it on tick tock
[286]
so the 911 operator she told me all the
[288]
best practices we had to lay him down
[289]
flat we couldn't give him orange juice
[291]
had to count his breathing and then we
[292]
had to tell her when he was breathing
[293]
and things like that
[294]
and finally the paramedics arrived and i
[295]
got the narcan i think he's gonna be
[296]
okay the point is
[298]
what's wrong with some of y'all how can
[300]
you see somebody dying and not do
[301]
anything
[302]
[Music]
[304]
and of course guys make sure to go
[305]
follow me on tick tock by the way
[307]
you can find me by searching at fact ceo
[309]
i'm a youtuber by day
[310]
tic talker by night bullfighter by
[312]
weekend but in that story the
[314]
maximalists
[315]
are the guy in the store who would not
[317]
call 9-1-1
[318]
i know you guys weren't there when this
[320]
happened but here's the deal
[321]
the guy was not going to call them no
[323]
matter what he looked at the situation
[325]
as
[325]
it was not his problem and i couldn't
[328]
believe the comments on that tick tock
[331]
there were so many people saying the guy
[333]
overdosing
[334]
was responsible for himself and it's
[336]
okay to literally
[338]
watch him die because he did drugs
[341]
like have you never done anything stupid
[343]
in your life have you never overindulged
[345]
in anything my little minecraft addicts
[348]
if an overweight person is dying of a
[350]
heart attack
[351]
would you just sit there and watch it
[352]
happen here's what it boils down to
[354]
some people are just weak and i get that
[356]
but to be totally okay watching someone
[358]
die
[359]
i just cannot understand that the
[361]
maximalists believe
[362]
that because you made the decision to
[364]
invest in
[365]
altcoins you deserve
[368]
suffering it blows me away sounds like a
[370]
religion but this is the attitude that
[372]
they have
[373]
and they are the most pompous toxic
[376]
jerks in the entire space
[378]
now let me be clear i have a few friends
[380]
like brekkie who are maximalists
[382]
and i tolerate their extreme views i
[384]
love him and i think i also have to make
[385]
a bold distinction between
[387]
the hardline bitcoin maximalist as i
[389]
call them and people who are
[391]
maximalish the hardline maximalists are
[394]
the people who are toxic
[395]
the people who are maximalish believe
[397]
that bitcoin is superior
[399]
due to its technicals fundamentals and
[400]
security the difference is that they are
[402]
smart enough to realize that in a world
[404]
where almost 150 billion dollars are
[406]
invested into all coins
[408]
some will survive and actually might
[410]
serve a purpose there's just too much
[412]
money in this space for them all to fail
[414]
how many will survive well that's
[416]
anybody's guess
[417]
some believe 10 some believe 50 some
[419]
believe hundreds
[420]
and some believe in a fully tokenized
[423]
world
[424]
with more than thousands of tokens i
[426]
actually tend to believe in the last
[428]
theory where having your own token will
[429]
be as common
[430]
as gift cards or having your own website
[433]
but that's just my gut feeling now
[435]
listen
[436]
there are sane normal people who believe
[439]
that bitcoin is dominant and will be the
[441]
last coin standing
[442]
and i can listen to that argument i
[444]
disagree
[445]
but i get where they're coming from i
[447]
mean bitcoin has the first mover
[448]
advantage my
[450]
hatred toward the maximalist is
[452]
dedicated specifically at the
[454]
hard-line maximalists for their toxic
[457]
maximalinity i made that word up pompous
[460]
people like
[460]
save a dean amos pierre rocha and tonvez
[464]
jimmy song they're some of the worst
[466]
humans in this space
[468]
the way they attack people for
[469]
diversified investments and
[471]
encroaching on their morally superior
[474]
high ground makes me sick
[476]
meanwhile you have probably the most
[478]
respected person
[479]
in this space andreas antonopoulos who
[482]
believes in free competition
[484]
and he's not a maximalist that should
[487]
tell you something
[487]
let me reveal to you why most people
[490]
are hardline maximalists if they are
[493]
they don't want
[494]
you to get rich because they already are
[497]
they have become the very people who
[498]
they originally started out against
[500]
the one percenters who hoard all the
[502]
wealth and are elitists
[504]
tone vase
[509]
have become the pompous elitist
[511]
themselves they're already rich
[513]
this guy pierre refused to ride on a
[516]
promotional bus with me and several
[517]
other crypto influencers last year
[519]
because some of us
[521]
talk about all coins can you get more
[523]
pretentious than that
[524]
refusing to be in the presence of
[526]
someone inferior to you i haven't seen
[528]
anything that extreme since 1941 when
[530]
the aryan race was the most popular
[532]
thing going
[533]
don't worry i didn't make it to that
[534]
club either at pia rocha
[536]
you have to understand the biggest
[537]
opportunity to get rich in bitcoin is
[540]
over you can still make money in it of
[542]
course but the biggest opportunity has
[544]
passed
[545]
period all coins offer people bigger
[549]
chances for gains and they hate that
[552]
like if bitcoin 100 x from here it would
[555]
be over a million dollars
[556]
and a market cap of like 20 trillion by
[558]
itself probably
[559]
not going to happen soon but hey it
[561]
could but some of the smaller caps
[563]
around 1 million dollars
[565]
could easily get to 100 million dollars
[567]
in cap plenty have done it we see it all
[569]
the time
[569]
and some of them could even get to a
[571]
billion in a huge bull run like we're
[573]
about to see
[574]
a 1000x for bitcoin does not exist
[577]
there isn't that much money in the world
[580]
these pompous elitist maximalists
[582]
want to hold you down so they can make
[585]
all the money and stay elite i don't
[587]
blame the individual players on the
[588]
philadelphia eagles because their fans
[590]
are super rude and annoying in general
[592]
i mean they're known for that they threw
[594]
snowballs at santa claus
[595]
and beer bottles at ladies i don't blame
[598]
bitcoin for these maximalists
[599]
but i can say the toxicity coming from
[601]
the maximalist is so bad that it does
[604]
turn me off to bitcoin a bit
[605]
but i respect it and believe it or not i
[608]
actually am sitting on some bitcoin
[609]
right now i haven't moved over to
[610]
ethereum for the first time in forever
[612]
the next time one of these idiots says
[614]
something elitist
[616]
i'll just throw up instead of trading my
[617]
bitcoin which side of the fence
[619]
do you fall on let me know down below in
[622]
the comments
[623]
that's all i got be blessed
