The fully doxxed have more skin in the game than the pseuds, which is why it’s perplexing to me how in many instances pseuds are more easily able to accrue trust A pseud’s opinion should be doubly discounted. They have no reputation risk

most pseudos i know with any following/reputation online are fully doxxed behind the scenes. they go to events, take calls w video, etc. it's v rare to see anyone do anything meaningful without fully doxxing. so while full doxx does bring more exposure, i think the diff in risk between reputable pseudos and fully doxxed is wayy overblown. case in point: if seneca were to become a rugger/scammer, the pain i'd inflict on myself and my family would be enormous. "it" _is_ my entire professional career.

in the market of ideas reputation is earned by being interesting or right consistently many scammers use the -i’m doxxed excuse to lure you in and divert from their scamming, A pseudonym doesnt necessarily mean much i use my real name for example, i just dont think im famous enough for that to matter to anyone online

Be that as it may, I think doxxing yourself in the crypto world is unsafe. I'd rather have less skin in the game, as long as it means I don't have to worry about someone from crypto twitter showing up at my house because they didn't like something I said, or maybe because they noticed I have just enough money in my wallet to justify a wrench attack. Reputation risk isn't worth worth having to constantly look over your shoulder.

a lot of people think i'm a pseud, but my handle is more doxxed (fully unique and easy to map to real identity) than my government name (extremely common to the point that i get many recruiters reaching out conflating the experience of many people with my name at the same time, i even made andreypetrov.com)

I live in a small town, trash talk about my employer, and share real-life medical cases. The anonymity set for my community is tiny if it was known where I am. Being pseudo allows me to talk MUCH more honestly. If I do a crypto protocol, I'd have no problems doxing to partners but would still remain publicly pseudo. There's no point risking your career and privacy to yap

It’s often the doxed endorsing their pseuds that builds the trust bridge. Social capital gets transferred and suddenly the pseud feels “safe” to trust, even without reputation risk.

If you have kids and crypto, fully doxxed is an untenable risk

i'd argue a pseud can potentially be even more real/raw than the fully doxxed, hence the ease of accruing trust i don't think fully doxxed is reputation risk either — people can commit crime time and time again and get away with it, doxxed or not

It’s simple doxxed individuals avoid controversy to protect their reputation, pseuds have less reputational skin in the game hence more honesty

What a load of crap. You don't have to have a name to gain trust, just verifiable history of decent behaviour.

There are those who say little and some will think they are wise. Perhaps their lack of disclosure creates a canvas upon which the gullible can project their ideals. What did Twain say? Better to be a fool and say nothing than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
