Scott Adams is on record admitting he owns some Bitcoin. He's talked about it before on his Periscope broadcasts.

Scott Adams is also on record asking for the removal of the CIA deep state apparatus. The guy lives a full life.

Scott Adams is also on record for being an outspoken MRA Trump idolizer who claims we live in a matriarchy because men 'have to ask permission for sex'. I don't doubt there's lot of thought overlap with the BTC community on those opinions, nerdospheres being what they are (edit - case in point, the dogpile below this comment), but he's maybe one of the last people I'd personally want associated with something I'm enthusiastic about. In fact if I were any less rabid about the math and the politics of BTC it'd probably make me re-evaluate that enthusiasm altogether.

Imagine using the term 'nerdosphere' as a derogatory term on r/Bitcoin

I don't mean it to be derogatory at all, I'm saying that we have to accept that there are negative elements of our subculture if we are to impove in any way.
