Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, tweeted that as a Bitcoin whale, he faced "systemic oppression and social contempt". He held large amounts of Bitcoin, Ordinals, BRC20 and Runes while enduring daily ridicule and criticism that my wealth was supposed to make me happy, but it made me hated. He jokingly linked cryptocurrency wealth to the body issue, saying that "just as Lizzo embraces her body, we embrace our wealth". Hayes also quipped that taking diet pills to deny his true body is like selling bitcoin for fiat, which is a betrayal of self.
