I like your analogy of bitcoiners on blake2b being the ones who will refuse the next experimental juice (as well). I agree with that.

But keeping with that analogy, don't you feel that when the next experimental juice rolls around, we should be letting our friends/acquaintances (and yes, probably even strangers) know how we feel about it and share information with them?

I feel the same way for bitcoin on blake2b. I am, and I will be, telling people about it.

What they do is up to them. And I always caveat what I say by being transparent about what I believe, the pros/cons, and basically saying what I'm doing for myself and my family.

If a friend of yours was learning how to use a gun and you saw that he was doing things that were unsafe (and he didn't seem to know that), don't you feel you would have a responsibility to at least let him know that what he's doing seems unsafe to you?

If a friend of yours had diseases that seemed very likely to be caused by the fact that he's obese, wouldn't you feel a responsibility to at least let him know about changes he could make to his diet and lifestyle?

Watching from the sidelines someone struggling and saying "I hope he figures it out on his own" seems cold to me.

By the way, since we now have a logo which is more golden color than orange, I guess we'll have to think about that orangepill meme. I'm open to suggestions.
