I'll stop you right there. You were downvoted because you were wrong, not because, - gasp - you used a certain word.

I'm a cryptographer. I'm not afraid of cryptocurrencies. I'm afraid of snake oil salesmen that sell things they don't understand.

> And I also refuse to be bullied into silence by some downvotes

K, well, I have no idea what this means. It's not bullying to downvote a wrong opinion.

I've been wrong lots of times. It's not a big deal...
