Mr Taleb, I discovered Bitcoin thanks to you. You speak about it explicitly and implicitly in all your books.

Bitcoin epitomises Skin in the game, antifragility, volatility, asymmetry, the barbell strategy, the sentiment against rent seekers, and an attack against bankers, empty suits and soviet like institutions.

You could indeed be Satoshi Nakamoto (I have written an article about this) because you synthesize the Bitcoin ideas succinctly.

One can only speculate about what changed your mind but I can't help thinking that perhaps your quarrel with Saifedean triggered it.

Despite all the hate spread on Twitter from both sides, you are very much still admired in the Bitcoin community and your books are frequently referenced when talking about applied antifragility.

Hopefully you will realize one day that you and Satoshi have been sending the same message. A world that is heavily manipulated, corrupted by an elite and inflated to oblivion is a world that is bound to fail. Bitcoin is a possible solution, perhaps not the only one but one that has proven to advance as intended so far
