Since you seem to get offensive and just chosen the bitter way and deciding that you are right instead of listening to experience, i feel like this doesn't lead to anywhere, but i'll try to answer all to your points, even the ones not directed to me:
"Because as a Dev, you need a tougher skin. There's ton of money involved so things get heated."
-Is this why people automatically worship Elon Musk and invest in Dogecoin just because Musk says so? The cryptocurrency community is too fickle to do the required due diligence to understand anything about anything.
That's a weird connection to my sentence. Doge fans cheer because because someone famous talks about them. Elon has fanbois and i am pretty sure they are not all that into crypto. Most of the PLANET doesn't "understand anything about anything" so why are you singling out crypto here? If you want to talk with smart people start from smarter then yourself. There are some brilliant crypto devs out there that are not tribalistic/maximalists, nor they care about the price.
"Those who support you now will support you for a long time"-Well, I have not been able to find any long-term supporters who I know by name. I have nothing but haters because the cryptocurrency sector is full of hateful people.
Yeah, i am starting to see the full picture of why wouldn't you have supporters. Even if you don't have people skills you can practise them. You don't need to be talking with everyone, nor everyone needs to like you. Obviously you will have haters, that's the reason famous people don't want to google themselves. Because they would focus only on the haters. Human brain is funny that way.
But instead of blaming others and wanting them to change, maybe take a hard look at the mirror first. And think what you want, why you want it and why do you think you deserve it. Or if you rather just want to build, then build.
"Just be transparent what you do and youl'll be fine."-I have tried this. But I find it impossible to communicate with people because there is a shortage of human intelligence in the world.
If you can't dumb down low enough to get trough, talk with smarter ones. It could be that your project somehow attracts wrong people and you need to ask yourself why is that?
Maybe take a page from people who have been transparent, and how they reply to fud and stupid comments.
Emanuele Francioni for example has insanely good track record in their telegram/discord using their own free time explaining very technical subjects to idiots like me.
"Most people are passionate about the work they do and the cryptocurrency community is particularly passionate about their work."-There is a difference between being passionate and being in a cult.
I would say it's definitely not "most people", but there are those too. Yeah, this space is full of tribalism and bring out worst of some people, because that's what humans do, they treat this as a sport where they cheer the other team and diss the other one and that's just something i am learning to ignore here. Most of people in here are profit maximalists anyway caliming that they are "in it for the tech". It has been meme from the start.
From the perspective of a smart person, majority of the people are immature idiots, you just have to accepted this blaming it all at one fringe sector for it is just lazy
"There are still plenty of very smart and caring people in this space, but you will have to do your research to find them."-I don't believe this.
That's really your problem, i could make a list but i feel like you are now just acting out as you are frustrated. I already gave one name but i am betting you can find hundred of others you can find just by reading the white papers. Most of the projects are crap and you need to weed out those. If you don't want to do the work, then i can't help you on that.
"I would like you to be more specific about what kind of interactions and what kind of entities you have communicated with. . ."-
Um. People have been posting Nazi imagery in online forums, and nobody except for me sees a problem with this.
This is what happens when we remove censorship, people aren't like they seem on any other social media. You can look at 4chan, that's how people interact when they can be anonymous. It's not problem in crypto, it's the human race.
This is because the entities in those forums are Nazis. Just yesterday, someone posted a picture of a penis in a forum.
And here you are assuming we are now all nazis. I guess that includes you too. How is this deductive reasoning? But if you really need an answer to this, if you haven't been paying attention, exremist right wing have been on the rise in the whole world. I mean "The Jews" were trending in the twitter just while ago. Again it's not just crypto. And i am not defending this by the way. I am all for censorship.
The people in these forums constantly and relentlessly harass me. They do not know how to communicate in proper English. And no, this is not because they are foreigners. It is because they hate education. Nobody ever knows what I am talking out when I am trying to communicate.
Stop interacting with people who harass you and kick them out. You can't feed the trolls, that's how they live.
The cryptocurrency community also hates me intensely because I have a Ph.D. in mathematics. They think that I need to apologize for having an education. The Bitcoin community also hates science intensely.
It sounds like Covid-19 masks and the Covid-19 lockdowns have inhibited humanity's social skills. And the brain damage from long Covid has caused people to become vegetables.
Yes, some people have hated science since scientific method was a thing, long before even internet. This is not about crypto.
"I have got the impression you may be dealing with the wrong people at the wrong place, since you dare to call out a whole community this way." -Then do better. I have no problem calling the entire cryptocurrency community out for being bad people, and I will continue to do this until the behavior of the cryptocurrency community improves. I would personally not want to transact with anyone using cryptocurrencies or with anyone who has any cryptocurrency since the cryptocurrency sector has been completely rotten.
And you wonder why you are getting harassed? It's not just you, it's everyone in here. It's good that you want to defend yourself but you can't win the fight by arguing with idiots. This whole space attracts people from every possible group of people. So there are conspiratards, idiots, scientists, rich, poor, gamblers, idealistic, young, old, far right, far left, mental patients and doctors. All having a voice, so unless you actively filter out the irrelevant voices it's all noise where loudest idiot wins.
You have to remember that normally you can act with people like yourself, in this space, you will hear voices that are borderlne illegal and dangerous, and these talking points and all this trolling is hopefully very much different from your normal circles and yes, that can be shocking. Again, this is all internet uncensored, not crypto.
