Pretentiousness For years, we’ve mocked a certain attitude whenever it popped up on our timelines: pretentiousness. That snobby, hollow posturing with zero substance underneath. The “I’m here to save ___” vibe. The appeal to authority. The inability to laugh at themselves. Every subgroup in Bitcoin has it to some degree—but one group, until recently, got a free pass. We put them on a pedestal for years. We still consider them vital to Bitcoin, but we’re slowly realizing, once the topic drifts outside their lane, they are retards. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Macro Folks: The reigning champions of saying nothing for hours while making it sound profound. They put listeners into a trance, convincing them they’ve just heard deep wisdom—when in reality, it was air. Many are pretentious fucks mostly because they believe the image they see in the mirror: suit, tie, “important” face. A few can actually take a joke, the biggest joke being that they’re experts in a system that makes no sense. Traders: They were the macro guys before macro guys were a thing. Their pretentiousness has “adapted” over time. It's there, but they have learned to hide it. They mostly emerge during bull runs like seasonal wildlife, then hibernate in bear markets—deleting old tweets, dodging margin calls, and repaying borrowed money by borrowing more money. Influencers: The podcasters, book writers, and content creators. Many leveled up from the pleb tier. Their main pretentious skill? Copy-pasting anything that will go viral. Their #1 pretentious weapon is blocking people—though, thanks to Elon’s changes, that weapon lost some bite. Plebs: Generally low on pretentiousness, but few derfinitely try way too hard to out-pleb everyone. “Oh, you’re on keto? I only eat elk I hunted with a throwing axe.” “Oh, you’re running a node? I am the node.” Whatever that means. Memers: The mirror of the culture. The clowns. The weirdos. Cats, dogs, puppets, Liotas. Low pretentiousness, low IQ—and that’s often a blessing, because it keeps them safe from scams the macro/trader/influencer types push. Their Venn diagram sometimes overlaps with other subgroups. Miners: Mysterious, like dwarves from Lord of the Rings. Few know much about them, except they always carry ear protection—possibly to block out everyone else’s noise. Devs: The backbone of Bitcoin and the reason for this tweet on pretentiousness. Once basement dwellers, now rockstars—conference stages, podcasts, TV appearances. Every word they say was debated for months. For years we put them up on a pedestal and now we are paying the price. Fame isn’t for everyone, and some egos are buckling under the spotlight. Knowing code doesn’t make you an expert in everything buddy, why are you commenting like an expert for the geopolitical changes in Uzbekistan like wtf. Stop pretending you're something that you are not. You're flawed like us, it's time for your dev bubble to burst. We have ChatGPT for technical questions now, calm down. The devs, still the most important subgroup of individuals in Bitcoin but now we know: a few of them can also be pretentious retards. And it's time to make fun of those few, as we do with everyone else.
