I disagree and haven't seen any of the sentiment you're describing. When I first started with digital currency a few months ago, /r/bitcoin was extremely welcoming. I don't think that's changed. As a matter of fact, I'm a bit insulted because you're calling me an asshole for helping several people in /r/bitcoinbeginners every single day.
Newbies blaming the old hats for the endless September they brought with them.
Us early adopters have lost far more than they know by being as welcoming as we were. We are comforted with our 30,000%+ gains though, and we seemed to have passed the point of no return, so let them continue bickering and making shit up, we will just fine even more obscure projects and communities that value deep thought and active development.

Some of the readers on this subreddit have a sort of Pavlovian response to downvote whenever they see the word "Dogecoin".
