• Linus Torvalds, creator of Linux, does not believe in cryptocurrencies, calling them a vehicle for scams and a Ponzi scheme.
  • Torvalds was once rumored to be Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, but he clarified it was a joke and denied owning a Bitcoin fortune.
  • Torvalds also dismissed the idea of technological singularity as a bedtime story for children, saying continuous exponential growth does not make sense.

    They downvote because they hate what they don’t understand, not because you’re incorrect.

    To the crypto haters, take a real 5-10 minutes to learn about Monero and see if you can apply the same hate afterwards.

      Oh, I know. And for pointing that out, you will get downvoted as well.
