Ironically, the only people who have made money on smart contracts - cough Ethereum - did it by convincing other investors to part with their money subsequent to selling those investors on the idea of smart contracts. That whole sub-niche industry is just a big cess pool of people chasing investment gains that we&#x27;re told can be had by pointlessly tilting at windmills.<p>Conversely, Bitcoin never promised smart contracts. To the extent Bitcoiners take part in Ethereum debates, we&#x27;re only doing it because we know the real game Ethereum is playing is diverting investment capital away from Bitcoin.
