Ok so i seen some news that got me thinking..

A guy i have chatted with a few times over the years who is well known was in the Crypto-News.
I got to thinking about his involvement in Bitcoin and maybe even Altcoins.

This guy is a visionary and a genius and a wizard at handling people, the web, poloitics etc.
He has wrote a lot of News articles for a well known site called TorrentFreak over the last decade.
Such as this one i booked marked in 2011.. And When Even The Death Penalty Doesn’t Deter Copying — What Then?

The guy is awesome and it's a good thing he is in Crypto.
He is the kind of guy that is needed for Bitcoin's health and maybe even the ALT scene as well.

If there was 1 person online i would so go check out it's that guy.

But it was this recent story that got me thinking..
(FEB 3rd 2017) Swedish Pirate Party's Founder: Bitcoin Community Has Political Problems - CoinTelegraph

I didn't realize he was getting into this stuff.. specifically the Bitcoin scene.
What i wonder is.. has the Altcoin scene gotten so toxic that he would never show his face here ?

Reality i think is..
You all love to blame the guy posting FUD for the downfall of this crappy scene.
But in reality it's because there is too much corruption and too many coins and too many shill's attacking each other trying to ruin the competing coin etc

Has it gotten so vulgar that people don't want to show their face here or even take part ?

Are we embracing and welcoming new comers of value to the Altcoin world ?
Should we be or is the whole thing garbage that should be flushed ?
