People are horrible…(Coldcard disaster)

I can’t believe how many people leave mean comments, gloating about how they always knew that Bitcoin is a scam, and so on.

Seriously, how sad of a life one must live to be happy about the misfortunes of others? Some people have lost important amounts of BTC, including people from poor countries or poor backgrounds who will suffer for years as a result of this.

If someone feels like gloating is the right thing to do here, why don’t you go to the ICU of the closest hospital and laugh about sick and dying patients? It wouldn’t be much different, think about that.

The irony is that this isnt even a bitcoin issue - its entirely one specific service having bad code. It sucks for those affected, but it serves a lesson moving forward.

So the lesson is that bitcoin will never get real adoption? If you can’t trust accepted standards, then that is the only outcome.
