Andreas M. Antonopolous We Salute You

Andreas is the first leader amongst the Bitcoin community who is NOT an introvert.

The previous spokespeople were rank and file introverts who made fools of themselves and made bitcoin an easy target to the many enemies it has. This grossly discouraged many good coders/developers and users. Unfounded lies and negativity have substantial effects on people's minds by decreasing morale. Not to mention the credibility issues it creates.

The powers that be are well aware of this, as they are masters of lies and psychological warfare. That is how they co opt every system.

Bitcoin itself is a sterile asset. It cannot speak for itself. Humans are designed to be social and interact with other humans. Everyone has a role to play, yet that role is also different based on abilities. Contrary to the modern world, in reality differences are real they exist. Deal with it. Since Bitcoin is sterile, speaking the truth about bitcoin defends the very people involved in it. This increases morale.

Every system in nature is hierarchical. Contrary to anarchist / communist/capitalist/ libertarian utopias, hierarchy is the way the universe is programmed to operate under. People need to recognize their own weakness and limitations and be content. Rallying around principled leaders leads to robust and flourishing systems. Bitcoin has lacked this for years. Bitcoin had the technical superiority to be great but lacked the natural human element, or at least a correct expression of it.

Andreas is to be commended not only because he is very articulate and intelligent(understands history) but most important of all Andreas has integrity and ethical values. THIS IS LACKING HUGE IN THE TECH COMMUNITY AT LARGE.

Andreas is also not afraid to go on the offensive against the many enemies of Bitcoin with straight to the point rebuttals. Essentially truth is his motivation. This is a much higher motivator then the typical libertarian "self interest profit motive". Selfishness leads nowhere.

If only a few more people like Andreas emerge, then the sky is the limit for this project. It will soar to heights unimaginable.
