- 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.

Then it’s weird how they keep telling me how much money they’ve made (and even sometimes ridiculing me for choosing not to participate).

I mean, hell, I would like you to participate too. But I understand that may not be your thing. And that’s okay. I don’t want you to participate for some number go up mad gains stock casino thing. I want you to participate because I seriously believe that Monero can help move human freedom forward by eventually replacing government money.

I don’t have a problem with government money. If the government money no longer has value, I’m fucked regardless.

I mean fair enough just that another money could get you out of that situation before it gets that bad. If nothing else than through bribes.
