Love these HackerNews Comments on Coinbase 2012 all innovative ideas are stupid until they aren’t  Austen Allred Incredible. Brian Armstrong’s HackerNews post looking for a cofounder for Coinbase.  “Because Bitcoin worked out so well. Have fun with that, dude.”  “I don’t think you’ve properly thought this through.”  “I’m gonna call it right now: bad idea.”  https://t.co/qMKb7kuJkN https://t.co/wJLAXA8Ijy https://twitter.com/austen/status/1382493163462529024?s=21

Human behavior is weird. Lots of people would tell you buying crypto is crazy during the last few years. Same people are willing to go into most niche alt coins during the bull run 😆

“What most people don’t realize is if you’re right and consensus you don’t make money.” It is a bit strange that most people don’t realize this truth and yet it is common sense: you simply can’t be part of the crowd and at the same time beat the crowd, especially after fees and costs are imposed.

As someone in the tweet thread commented accordingly Coinbase did change its business model from the original

It’s interesting to read these old takes 😆 but usually consensus is correct, and going against it means you will be ridiculed and often wrong
