Will Schoellkopf
Self-described 'Class of 2021' Will Schoellkopf writes that Bitcoin is still early and that the plebs — 'my fellow Stackchainers' — are the evidence, defining Bitcoiners as open-minded early adopters who admit they were wrong about money and verify rather than trust. He predicts a future in which everyone uses Bitcoin as a unit of account and identifying as a Bitcoiner is no longer distinctive, and answers the traders' complaint about absent yield with 'The true yield of Bitcoin is the friends we stackchain along the way.'
