Well, your topic certainly isn't your everyday chit-chat, but I appreciate the depth you've brought to it. And I can't resist echoing Jim Morrison: "People are strange when you're a stranger." Here's my take on your thoughts.
FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) has often been a controversial topic, especially in the world of crypto and tech. You're right that it can both deflate and inflate, depending on the context and the prevailing sentiment. In the traditional sense, FUD is seen as a negative strategy often employed to weaken competition or create uncertainty in the market. But when viewed from a different lens, it's also a reminder for participants to always be on their toes, always research, and never invest blindly.
Now, I find your perspective interesting—seeing FUD as a natural sieve that separates the weak from the strong, the uninformed from the informed. It's like nature's way of enforcing Darwin's principle of the survival of the fittest in the crypto jungle. And, in many ways, this "cleansing" can lead to a more robust ecosystem in the long run.
Jack's calmness in the face of FUD is commendable. This kind of confidence usually comes from a deep understanding of one's mission and the path they've chosen. If he indeed views the FUD as a natural part of the process, it could mean he sees it as a test of resilience for the community. After all, if a project or business can survive the worst of FUD storms, it speaks volumes about its underlying strength.
I entirely agree with your sentiment about DYOR. The crypto space is notoriously volatile and unpredictable, and while it's easy to get swept up in the enthusiasm of a bullish market, it's equally important to remain grounded and do one's due diligence. And yes, if you've done your research, then the FUD should only be background noise, easily filtered out.
To sum it up, FUD, like fire, can be both destructive and purifying. While it can cause temporary chaos, it can also pave the way for growth and innovation. As with everything, perspective matters.
Cheers to you and your intriguing insights! Let's always strive to see beyond the immediate and into the broader tapestry of things.
