Why us it that half the hero members from the last time I was active are now scammers? It seems like almost all of the really active, respected members have been written off as traitors.

Because they can trick people into sending them money by using their status. Always use escrow.

Actually, I don't think those people really intended to scam.

They just made ONE little mistake. They did not beleive in bitcoin and saw it just as an opportunity to become rich.
So they dumped every coin they could to get FIAT. And now, they're in a dead end.

Fuck them.
[OVER] RIDDLES 2nd edition --- this was claimed. Look out for 3rd edition!
I won't ever ask for a loan nor offer any escrow service. If I do, please consider my account as hacked.

Back then they seemed very sincere, in the forum if not in bitcoin itself.

I noticed the same thing when I returned from a long Bitcoin pause...
That's very sad and makes you think you're one of the only Bitcoin enthusiasts Sad
