He told Gizmodo he was surprised when he first got into Bitcoin in 2020 to find what he described as “a rich, vibrant community of Christian Bitcoiners,” and said the success of his self-published book, which he says has sold more than 10,000 copies over the past three years, only reinforced his sense that the overlap was real.

This should come as no surprise. People who are willing and able to have faith in things without any quantifiable evidence are going to be easy to draw into scams.
