Many such cases. They are either too cowardly to mention it or genuinely ignorant. As time progresses, the case for ignorance generally decreases. Luckily people like Peter Schiff have started mentioning it which I appreciate. People were bugging Nassim Taken about it too, but he fell for some easy FUD corpo journo story saying Monero was hacked, complained about it, and then never revisited it because he probably wrote it off after that.

I do wonder if many people feel like they spent all their social capital on Bitcoin and then it turned out the way it did and now they're unwilling to endorse Monero now due to past experiences.

Thanks for the uptip by the way. Source: timing analysis ;). Feel free to read the rest if you haven't already. I think you might secretly enjoy some of my more contentious conversations ;).
