Why do you think Andreas Antonopoulos is so hard at work (traveling around the world, giving speeches, etc) in creating awareness on bitcoin?

I really don't care why he does that. I had the chance to listen two of his speeches in meetups, with about 2 years interval and in both of them has some interesting things to say. I believe he is a talented entrepreneur and an excellent author too. But, why do you care about the Antonopoulos activities? edit:grammar

What prompted you to start caring? 2. And why do you think this factor that prompted you to care, cares about you? I don't care about his activities. I care about his intents.

He's a really bitcoin lover, only people who really love bitcoin can do such great things, it's a job that no one else can do except him. It is a great will and a great energy. Surely his love and understanding of bitcoin is endless. He did this because of bitcoin's development, because of people's understanding of bitcoin. I believe so. He is a powerful man.

I don't care about his activities. I care about his intents.
May be he is holding so much bitcoin in his portfolio and many more for his client so he want to make bitcoin price grow significantly within next few years to make profit If not how he is managing all his travel cost. However i also like all his speeches.

Andreas Antonopoulos is a man of bitcoin. He is well knowledgeable about the topics he is discussing and his opinions are good and well prepared. Another thing is that he is not biased but rather works using the facts that he garnered and analyzed. Sure thing is he is working hard not only for himself but for all of the bitcoin community.

andreas HAD noble intentions.
but when he started screaming loudly that segwit was utopia in 2015-16 before the code was even publicly available as a running bitcoin implementation. and even without seeing it using segwit keys on the network to know if it lives upto promise when co-mingling with native REAL bitcoin transactions.. i seen his new intentions.

He wants the best for Bitcoin and perhaps he must have huge investments in Bitcoin that if it goes down he will be a big loser so in his bid to save his head he might try to spend a few to save a lot. I like his speeches and since he's for the good cause he has my full support.

The answer is simple, he is a Bitcoin enthusiast and one of the few "famous" people in the crypto world who is honest and doesn't have a hidden agenda.If I am not mistaken he is making a living with Bitcoin, but this is not bad at all he deserves every single satoshi he owns.Both of his books are must read, and all his speeches are a pleasure to watch, one of the best ways to introduce BTC to a newbie is to show him one of his videos.

He found something that he was passionate about and also something that would pay for him to see the world. If I had his knowledge about the subject and his gift to convey this knowledge to a audience... I would do it to. There are not a lot of people who are VERY knowledgeable about something and at the same time... having a gift to teach other. { Some can do, but not teach }

Let's just support him and appreciate what he had already done and his doing up to now, we are part of his journey and I think he wanted to share this opportunities to those who are still unaware and encourage to join the development of what we have now and of course to add more knowledge who are already part of this.

i still have respect for andreas.. just at 75% respect level instead of 100%
as for others in 2012 i had 50% respect for maxwell (50% positive for some coding and 50% minus for attitude) but since 2013 that dropped to about 1% respect due to how much the $70m investment and corporation structuring changed his bitcoin motives.. and yes they have changed him.
those "trusting" gmaxwell 100% based on his coding skills of pre 2014, are putting their heads in the sand to his post 2013 change in stance

He is very passionate for bitcoin and has been working hard for years. Was good to see that he corrected his stance and now understands why block size increase before segwit is stupid. With his UASF support we will get segwit soon without approval of Jihad.

Segwit is good and no amount of your posts will convince anyone that segwit isn't a good idea, because there is no dumb conspiracy theory where everyone is pro segwit except you and Roger Ver and the rest are all wrong. You are wasting your time you know this right?

Andreas had (and still has) too noble intentions, to the extent they are questionable. Questionable in a sense whether his works are voluntary and independent, or otherwise. If they are truly noble, then I say they totally do not befit most of human natures that are generally selfish, lazy, greedy, inactive, lackadaisical, covetous, impartial, deceitful, etc etc. Almost crusader-like, but facial structures and expressions do not indicate a person of noble intent. Just because someone appears noble does not mean he has no hidden intent.
