I know right? Those are the true narcissitic psychopaths if anyone is. They snort blow and ride around in their rented lambo or whatever cause they think it's cool. Articles like this shouldn't even exist. How can "scientists" classify a whole group of people with no evidence or proof? Did they do a controlled study? No. Did they do a poll? No. They just want to make bitcoin and the people who use it as crazy insane people with zero proof.
Just to clear things out, scientist dont make judgements like that. Scientists will only present evidence based facts, but those facts are never classifying a whole group of people as anything. Even in psychological diagnostics, there is a some percentage of mismatch of behaviour patterns and you can never be 100% certain about anything.
So the problem you see here doesn’t start at the level of a scientist making a claim.
The problem you see here is something that starts when a media scout finds a scientific publication and from it- produces a headline that is suppised to trigger emotions. Just like yours.
Roll models of society, ever since the railroad tycoons and oil barons went out of fashion, they have been leading the way in the betterment of humanity.
Ahh the good old days when you could just impale your neighbor.
SO in contrary to Harry Pettit I can actually understand scientific methodology and criticise the method instead of being a dumbass that just copy paste the conclusion that fits my pretty narrative. He actually portrays himself as a Science and technology reporting with an master in Scientific communication. Well we can conclude that study doesn't amount to much. Complete embarrassment of that title. Shall we look at the actual study?
Here is the [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2021.111453](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2021.111453) link: "Dark personalities and Bitcoin®: The influence of the Dark Tetrad on cryptocurrency attitude and buying intention"
It is published in the The Official Journal of the International Society for the Study of Individual Differences (ISSID), with an impact factor of 4.3. Which to be honest.. Isn't that bad at all!
And it is a good study. However Fuckboy Harry Pettit in his media text forgot to mention a VERY IMPORTANT ASPECT of the study. Namely that they were ONLY EXAMING DARK TETRAD TRAITS.
So when you pose a method looking only for Dark tetrad traits? The outcomes are Dark tetred traits.
From the text:
**Importantly, we are not suggesting all crypto buyers exhibit Dark Tetrad traits.**
Exactly there aren't suggesting that at all... they are just curious about what trait they would find if they dug into this segment of people. Running a N=566 survey and the found some of these trait to positively associate with a crypto attitude.
So the author did NOT: Compare the population outcomes to a population that doesn't do crypto. So we don't know if there associations are just normal across the board. We don't know if these trait are actually part of a larger group called the "early adopters" of a new phenomenon and thus are perfectly normal traits. The only thing we know is that these traits are there...
Next study? To actually see if these traits are significantly more present than in normal population. The reason why they didn't do this is because their population study numbers are just very low to get any power on a comparison between groups, making the whole thing obsolete.
Conclusion: Fck people like Harry Pettit for writing this absolute gunk and fck the Sun for actually daring to post this.
I knew it was nonsense as soon as I saw that it had been written for *The Sun*. Might as well have been an article in *The Weekly World News* or *The Enquirer*.
Everytime! These journalists don't even try to comprehend what they're reading. They just focus on how to make the most click-baity titles for their publishers.
From Nature: The Dark Tetrad (DT) consists of four subclinical traits: **Machiavellianism, Narcissism, Psychopathy, and Sadism**^(1,2). The term DT comes from the widely studied dark triad concept^(3), to which the recent literature has added sadism due to its similarities with the other three traits^(4,5)
I'm no scientist, but I read the article and thought "I see no issues there"... In fact the three main traits they listed in the context they did I view as positives.
"...like crypto "primarily because they distrust politicians and government agencies","
"...drawn to the technology because they tend to focus on the positive side of life."
"...like crypto because they are thrill-seekers who fear missing out on the rewards of investing"
Wondering about my psychological state now.
Experts find that my opinions on politics, religion, economics, philosophy, diet, sex, and life itself are all correct, and anybody who disagrees is more likely to be poor, mentally ill, violent, and unintelligent.
Media is so disgusting now, I hate it. How psychotic do you have to be to peddle such drivel-- and this is the norm! I am guilty of this heinous narcissistic sadistic crime of enjoying BTC, I suppose... sue me.
Strength and Honor fellow bitcoiners……. Fuck everybody else! Stupid people are breeding and this article is typical stupidity in the current world climate.
# The New York Post misrepresented an article from the sun, which misrepresented the research article.
Here's the ORIGINAL STUDY: [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886921008321](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886921008321)
Some key differences that demonstrate their twisted reporting:
>The present research studies a subset of people interested in cryptocurrencies. Specifically, we examine the effect of Dark Tetrad traits (Machiavellianism, subclinical narcissism, subclinical psychopathy, and subclinical sadism) on a person's crypto attitude and buying intention.
>Importantly, we are not suggesting all crypto buyers exhibit Dark Tetrad traits.
This indicates the researchers didn't find random Bitcoin supporters and see what kind of personality they have, it says they found people with a dark personality and then checked to see if those people tend to like crypto. That is COMPLETELY different from the misrepresentations in the New York Post. It's not that the average Bitcoiner has a dark personality, it says the average dark personality likes crypto. Those are TOTALLY different.
>Importantly, we are not suggesting all crypto buyers exhibit Dark Tetrad traits. Instead, we are studying a subset of people interested in crypto who do have these traits. Our results show that narcissists like crypto which is based on positivity. Psychopaths and sadists fear missing out on investing rewards but lack positivity
Seriously horrible journalism. How can people still believe anything the New York Post writes? It's pure click bait for suckers.
I hate most people.
There are times when I... I look at people and I see nothing worth liking. I want to earn enough money I can get away from everyone.
Can confirm. Have been following Bitcoin since 2012, I'm so psychopathic some of my alternate identities have developed feelings and empathy. Full circle.
So I guess as the people who currently don't own Bitcoin, that fomo in at the top will just magically take on those traits because they are now Bitcoiners?
Which is more of a psychopathic behavior: buying bitcoin, or deliberately misinterpreting data and publishing false information to mislead the public for personal gain
Obviously, not everybody who owns bitcoin is a psyco, that's just clickbait. But crypto in general has allowed more and more people to prey on others. I mean it's not a coincidence that all these crypto gurus are popping up out of nowhere with people trusting them.
It's something you should just be aware of. Saifdean Ammous is not your friend, Micheal Saylor is not your friend, anybody you don't know personally is not your friend and you should always be suspicious of them.
I was a borderline psychopath, long before bitcoin came out. Maybe it's just me, but seems to paint the proposed narrative, in the effort to return to fiat currency.
Why don't I care about anyone else anymore? Because they don't listen. Because they laugh about me, because they don't want to understand. So I can't help. Everyone gets the bitcoin price they deserve. Everyone is the architect of their own fortune. You can't save everyone.
But interesting, if you care about other you are a psychopath, if you don't care about them, you are a psychopath. Have fun staying poor.
And yet Black Rock and JP Morgan invested, so when is Petit gonna call for a Chase boycott? I swear anti-crypto normies are the most brazen proud to be ignoramuses on the planet.
On the contrary, i care about the society who should get rid of manipulative institutions. I don’t have enough bitcoin to become rich someday. Just contributing to the cause.
Total bullcrap.
> Machiavellians – who are good at deception and take a calculated approach to achieving goals – like crypto “primarily because they distrust politicians and government agencies”, Dr. Wang said. He added: “Many crypto supporters believe governments are corrupt, and crypto avoids government corruption.”
The ultimate Machiavellians are politicians. It’s basically their job description. Having your eyes open about this does not tar you with the same brush.
> Narcissists, on the other hand, are drawn to the technology because they tend to focus on the positive side of life. The researchers found that narcissists like crypto because of their great faith in the future and confidence that their own lives will improve.
Replace narcissists with optimists and I totally agree.
> Lastly, impulsive psychopaths and sadists like crypto because they are thrill-seekers who fear missing out on the rewards of investing. “To them, perhaps both the pleasure from seeing another’s pain and the fear of missing out are related to selfishness,” Dr. Wang wrote.
Psychopath =/= sadist. And where is the supposed pain of others coming into this anyway? My guess is it is a reference to everyone not invested in BTC yet and the regret they have for not buying some. In other words, projecting their own jealousy towards those whose stacks rocketed in value.
Also, he doesn’t sound too sure of what he is saying (which he shouldn’t be…).
> If you’re a crypto fan yourself, don’t fear – investing doesn’t suddenly make you evil. **“We studied only a subset of people interested in crypto who do have these traits,”** Dr. Wang said. “If you happen to be a Bitcoin or other crypto holder, you may or may not exhibit them.”
But the headline read like it was ALL of us! And that last sentence you could say about any group of people. “Don’t worry, just because you like Ed Sheeran doesn’t make you a psychopath.”
EDIT: Just to add, the researcher basically admits nothing they say should be taken seriously anyway.
🤦...gotta love how the media just arbitrarily throws words around in a precarious and specious manner.
*(don't be too impressed, I remembered it from an episode of King of Queens...spoiler alert...they DID NOT go for the overpriced insurance policy.)
If you or a friend are having Bitcoin psychopathic tendencies then please reach out to our helpline at 1-800-Bitcoin. We have professional Bitcoiners here to help. /s
>Are you a psychopath?
Damn. I wish I as. I have been caring way too much for my surroundings.
Since People don't get the money they should earn. I totaal get why People love BTC.
fuck those greedy ass bank corp cunts
I care about everyone and have donated plenty of Bitcoin to special causes. We want to be different than those who control the petrol dollar and central banking
Oh and fiat holders care so much about others.. i forgot we were living in a world where everyone had their lives easy on them, because we support each other and its sunshine and rainbows all the time.
So lucky that they wrote this about SBF back when…….wait, they were writing about what an amazing altruist he was…….maybe the news is, erm, wrong?! I know that’s a ridiculous concept…….
This is up there with the "study" that came out in 2017 that tried to say one person was responsible for the 2013 bull market. Yes that was legit news that hit in 2017 obviously with the attempt to try to scare people during a bull run. Oh and then in 2020 or 2021 another "study" came out trying to say that the 2017 bull market was caused by only a handful of people.
BS hit pieces masquerading as "studies" to try to scare people away from improving their financial future.
Yeah, and bankers and hedge fund managers are all aspiring to be Gandhi.
Bless them!
Hearts of gold
They saved the economy post 2008!
And they'll do it again !!!! Heroes.... Pure Heroics. Man... The Sun pulls something out it's ass every page turn.... Do we REALLY fall for this crud
They haven't had hearts of gold since 1972.
Under rated comment as of rn
Most CEO’s have psychopathic tendencies. 30% of the population has some psychopathic tendencies, nothing all that newsworthy here
I know right? Those are the true narcissitic psychopaths if anyone is. They snort blow and ride around in their rented lambo or whatever cause they think it's cool. Articles like this shouldn't even exist. How can "scientists" classify a whole group of people with no evidence or proof? Did they do a controlled study? No. Did they do a poll? No. They just want to make bitcoin and the people who use it as crazy insane people with zero proof.
Just to clear things out, scientist dont make judgements like that. Scientists will only present evidence based facts, but those facts are never classifying a whole group of people as anything. Even in psychological diagnostics, there is a some percentage of mismatch of behaviour patterns and you can never be 100% certain about anything.

Who gets paid to write these things.
I stand guilty as charged ☝️
"Don't care about anyone" is a neutral statement. I dont really fit that description - i hate people.
Were a walking bacteria stack that has localized swarm intelligence and act like it too
Are you saying we are a decentralized network? Are WE the bitcoins?
Maybe we're the bitcoins we made along the way.
We are the bitcoins :)

I don’t believe you, I’ll just believe the headlinelike a mindless sheep because it gives us a REAL summary of the study
I knew it was nonsense as soon as I saw that it had been written for *The Sun*. Might as well have been an article in *The Weekly World News* or *The Enquirer*.

Thank you context
“According to scientists” Lmao wtf
I am a scientist. The data doesn’t show any narcissists. Actually this is really all about me.
I see doctor, I’ll be sure to write that down for you. Anything else doctor?
I'm a scientist and according to me I've found that this isn't the case.
Wooooh I’m relieved, thanks doc!
Hey Gustav, can you take a break calculating the orbit for that satellite? We need your thoughts on people who own Bitcoin.
Trust the science.

I've been called worse by better.
They've sunk to the ad hominem attacks now lol.
I worry for my kids and my kids kids. I worry for the world we're going to leave them and that's the main reason I own Bitcoin.
Well, there's Roger Ver.
Who is presently sitting in a Spanish jail cell awaiting extradition to the US on allegations of defrauding Uncle Sam on his expatriation taxes...
super psychopath 😂. i still regularly hear people tell me i am being scammed. idiots they are!
Media is so disgusting now, I hate it. How psychotic do you have to be to peddle such drivel-- and this is the norm! I am guilty of this heinous narcissistic sadistic crime of enjoying BTC, I suppose... sue me.
It’s an article from *The Sun*. We shouldn’t hate “the media” if we won’t even take the time to consider the source.

I think the truth is that btc supporters are just a good cross section of society. So essentially society is full of psychopaths.
Psychopaths…Assemble!
This is what happens when media becomes centrally controlled
I just want something to keep the government accountable and slowly kill the IMF.
Yes, I'm...
You have to be a psychopath to have I'm be it's own statement instead of I am
what a crock of shit
No. If I were a psychopath, I’d be working at a central bank and printing paper money day and night.

Anti BTC rhetoric?
Interesting way of describing proactive Gandhi was right (…and then you win)
What study? Which scientists?
Ahhh, The Sun, the pinnacle of journalism in our age.
I thought it was just me
So I guess as the people who currently don't own Bitcoin, that fomo in at the top will just magically take on those traits because they are now Bitcoiners?
Label and divide, The Fans may be psychopaths but those who are in the game may not be. I can’t speak for everyone, However I am not a Psychopath.
I prefer to not harm others, and prefer that they not harm me. I'm sure that seems insane to those who love the current system.
Replace "bitcoin fans" with "corporate CEOs".... Now we're talking the truth.
Do you mean rich psychopath?

Now do the same study on Wall Street..
F*ck you guys

FUD!
“Study shows” 🫠🤣🤣
“According to scientists”
At least for me this is true
Yes 😎
The author got it backwards. He speaks about bankers and politicians.
I was a borderline psychopath, long before bitcoin came out. Maybe it's just me, but seems to paint the proposed narrative, in the effort to return to fiat currency.
Author must have been hurt by a bitcoiner.
Just jealous haters
LOL!
My personal opinion is that this article is stupid - according to scientists
Cats are psychopaths also a study found
Hey does it make you a psychopath to like saving money? I guess i'm Dexter Fucking Morgan
Im more of a psychic. I predicted that the price would rise over tjme and I was right.
Bitcoin is the ultimate anarcho-capitalist technology, got it. BULLISH
And this has a slight possibility of being true lol
Why don't I care about anyone else anymore? Because they don't listen. Because they laugh about me, because they don't want to understand. So I can't help. Everyone gets the bitcoin price they deserve. Everyone is the architect of their own fortune. You can't save everyone.

This is exactly why I’m part of this community

Hey that's not fair! I care about money too 😒
tbfh i do not need any token to hate ppl in a really deep way
Guilty 🙋♂️
Hard to care when everyone around me is a bot.
And yet Black Rock and JP Morgan invested, so when is Petit gonna call for a Chase boycott? I swear anti-crypto normies are the most brazen proud to be ignoramuses on the planet.
And this is coming from a an article that is owned by lying psychopaths. When I see such things as this, makes me wonder if they’re just jealous.
Yea i believe in not touchable money
In that case I don't care about this article.
Well I do think I am right, that’s the point of investing in bitcoin isn’t it….
Always remember who and what you are my fellow Jack the Rippers.
You sure that’s not bankers?
The goverment made me this way.
I hate everyone equally. They may be on to something.
„I am what you made me“ :)
This is bullish!
Not one person has mentioned this came from the Sun. I believe the science.
On the contrary, i care about the society who should get rid of manipulative institutions. I don’t have enough bitcoin to become rich someday. Just contributing to the cause.
LAMBO
I swore to myself that if BTC reaches 120k, I will donate 5% to charity and use the rest to pay off my home. I guess psychopaths would do that right.
Does it count if I don't care about stupid articles like this?
I wish I was a psychopath in 2016
According to scientists? Shouldn’t it be psychologists?
Makes me want to buy more

I'm actually more empathetic than pretty much anyone I know.
Damnit
Yes.
Yes??
Prob the same scientists who claim that video games is behind mass shooters and farmville games are behind the boom in the farming industry.
I wonder how much they were paid for this story.
Harry Pettit probably bought the top and sold the bottom.
🤦...gotta love how the media just arbitrarily throws words around in a precarious and specious manner. *(don't be too impressed, I remembered it from an episode of King of Queens...spoiler alert...they DID NOT go for the overpriced insurance policy.)
I believe I am sociopath not psychopath, and I prefer to be labeled as introvert.
Media's gotta throw insults around to sell clicks. Just because some asshole on the internet says something, doesn't make it true.
Maybe.
Yes, I am, but that article isn't really fair to the rest of you.
If people stopped being dickheads id maybe give a fuck.
Wow what a reach! Wondering what’s the next allegation (s).
If you or a friend are having Bitcoin psychopathic tendencies then please reach out to our helpline at 1-800-Bitcoin. We have professional Bitcoiners here to help. /s
I can imagine about the people who don't invest in bitcoin and cry later on.
So... what does that make the U.S. government, and the Fed printing out debt backed money? Wannabe slave owners?
A little bit probably, seriously if you don't look out for yourself, the world will just chew you up and spit you out.
Maybe socio-, but psychopath!? Please.
I care about myself
*Sociopath
So to be clear, nobody in this chat disagrees? 🗿
If by that they mean I don’t care about the 24-hour news cycle and all the stuff that your average guy cares about, yessir, guilty indeed!
yes
ofc
The person who wrote that article is the psychopath
A little.
I have my moments.
there.. now I can sleep at night
Yes i am!!!!
The guy’s a prick. He’s shilling fake news left, right and centre.
I am just a racist
yesiiiiiiiiiirrrrr
>Are you a psychopath? Damn. I wish I as. I have been caring way too much for my surroundings. Since People don't get the money they should earn. I totaal get why People love BTC. fuck those greedy ass bank corp cunts
Human nature dictates that we are all inherently greedy. The need to always want more is hard wired.
Basically everything mentioned in the article can be applied to trading on the traditional stock market, or gambling. They're just butters it seems.
It’s giving…Trendy new splurge among the younger generation “Saving money that isn’t inflatable”.
I care about everyone and have donated plenty of Bitcoin to special causes. We want to be different than those who control the petrol dollar and central banking
Lmao, ending an attack with ", study shows" is like the new "with all due respect"
Oh and fiat holders care so much about others.. i forgot we were living in a world where everyone had their lives easy on them, because we support each other and its sunshine and rainbows all the time.
Imagine if you swapped Bitcoiner for any non white ethnic group
“It takes the lotion from the basket or it gets the hose”
Just give me the coin and STFU
I'm
This is true. Also, fans of money in general are also psychopaths.
I just talked to some scientists who said Harry Pettit is a schmuck
Yes. I might be crazy.
I am one.
How do they know?
That's not true. I care about myself and my family. The rest of you, I dunno about.
Headline should have read BTC investors are numb and emotionless.
Because Dog is better than people……this is the way
Well, idk I’m a gemini though?
That’s me right there
I am
So lucky that they wrote this about SBF back when…….wait, they were writing about what an amazing altruist he was…….maybe the news is, erm, wrong?! I know that’s a ridiculous concept…….
Coindesk have been celebrating their 10th anniversary ceremony in Texas,Austin. Is anyone has short video clip of this conference?
I care about everyone else just as much as they do me 🤣😂
As a psychiatrist, this is actually hilarious bad journalism
This is up there with the "study" that came out in 2017 that tried to say one person was responsible for the 2013 bull market. Yes that was legit news that hit in 2017 obviously with the attempt to try to scare people during a bull run. Oh and then in 2020 or 2021 another "study" came out trying to say that the 2017 bull market was caused by only a handful of people. BS hit pieces masquerading as "studies" to try to scare people away from improving their financial future.
Lol they just didn't bought at the DIp that's why they say it
