HN is not one person. There's people here that are for Bitcoin and those that are against it. I see plenty of healthy debate in the comments here and in other submissions about it.
Crypto threads here are almost always full of people who can't be bothered to do even a cursory search or find out how things actually work. The tech itself is almost never discussed, and you'll never find a novel perspective here for a very simple reason -- the people who push the envelope in this area are not posting here.
