I wouldn't be surprised if they got tired of the constant negativity when anything related to crypto is mentioned.
I thought this was supposed to be a forum of like minded people interested in technology and its potential applications. Ever since the start of this last bull market it's felt incredibly hostile to anyone even remotely interested in blockchains and related tech. Maybe it's always been like this, I've only been here a couple years.
HN has always had its knee-jerk negativity and dumber biases on some topics, but the extremeness around the crypto stuff really is something novel imo. I find it not worth engaging on the topic here at all anymore (and I've tried earnestly a few times).
