After seeing the degree of vitriol and righteous indignation, I’m seeing parallels between the 2016 election virtue signaling (everyone I disagree with is a racist/homophobe/bigot) and core supporters today with ad hominem attacks on people like Roger and CSW.

Take this tweet for example: https://twitter.com/crypto_bitlord/status/983393523935227904?s=21

It’s kind of creepy to watch someone try so hard to receive a pat on the back with this kind of virtue signaling. In a way, Roger’s twitter has become just like Trumps— a race to see who can deliver the quickest jab and rack up attention for the valiant work they’re doing. Just bizarre behavior by beats seeking affirmation.

Have personal attacks on Roger become a sort of virtue signaling for core supporters? Have you see any other form of virtue signaling going on here?

Obviously there are incredibly strong parallels between the censorship by the left and censorship by core supporters, but I’m starting to see a lot of virtue signaling now too.

There is also a strong parallel between the way Core cucks attack BCH for just being ever so “misleading” for the hoards of poor innocent souls who intended to buy BTC but instead bought BCH. They’ve completely ignored the substance of the argument and settled on red herrings, just like the left kicks and screams “muh Russia” and “muh Racism” instead of debating substance.

And oh boy does that righteous outage feel GOOD

Roger was investing in Bitcoin companies in 2011 meanwhile CoreCucks were playing call of duty in 2011.

I showed up in December and I still genuinely don't understand why people hate this guy so much.

So he thinks that Bitcoin was designed to be like peer to peer cash (like Nano is trying to be) but there were developers working on Bitcoin that kept that from being a reality? And then he forked Bitcoin and called it Bitcoin Cash? What am I missing, why is he so hated?

He along with Jihan Wu was r/bitcoin's Goldstein.
During the time before the 2x agreement every day on r/bitcoin was a day of hating Roger (especially) and Jihan Wu. It was insane. Literally everything bad with bitcoin was dumped on these two. Every period of congestion was interpreted as an intentional spam attack by Roger Ver. Everyone who disagreed with the insanity you got censored and banned.

Core is morally bankrupt

The Bitcoin experiment failed when bitcoinXT was DDoSed out of existence in 2015
This evidenced the need for a stronger governance model than "anonymous dude disappears", decentralization or not
Incidentally, Ethereum popped up just in time to capitalize on that, doing just the right things
The project has made its own share of mistakes, but none as catastrophical as a Blockstream style takeover, so unless a crypto 3.0 pops up, ETH is where crypto innovation will be

He seems a bit autistic and lonely. Both Mark Carpeles and Craig Wright are master level con artists. I think he genuinely got fooled by them.
Afaik he considered Charlie Shrem as his genuine friend, but after Charlie borrowed money from him, he (CS) started to slander him publicly while refusing to give the money back. It's hard to get genuine friends when you're so rich.

Roger is one of the most OG crypto guys in the space. He’s coming at this from a genuine philisophical desire to see the world be freed from the evils of government and is sad that Bitcoin has been corrupted by arbitrary block size limitations.

The guy is a first class douche bag. He fucking doxxed someone over $50

He fucking launched an attack on Bitcoin over his meglomania and butt-hurt feelings.

I though he dumped all his bitcoin, he should focus on make his shitcoin the best he can be and just leave Bitcoin the fuck alone.

As much as inhaye Libtards and their never ending virtue signalling, i have to admit im starting to grow a hatred for my own race.

White people are fucking nuts. Boomers, gen x and millennials are all batshit insane. I feel like im living in a world where common sense has vanished and its mostly with white folk. Also dont get me started on their lasiness and greed and sociopathy. Just working around whites has driven me to despise them.

Maybe its just the city dwellers, but we are in the end cycle of our civilization. The parrallels with the fall of Rome are hard to ignore. Degeneracy and the fall of birth rates says it all.

I keep only as much bitcoin as I really need to trade with. I do wish I had more BCH though for when the Bitcoin whales get serious about flipping BTC/BCH.

And yes, bitcoin whales could probably flip BTC/BCH on a whim if they wanted to. Ver himself might have tried back in October/November but you're naive if you think that's all the ammo those guys have. They're just waiting for the right moment.

You don't have a very good understanding of the situation.

Essentially it comes down to this: control of bitcoin was being usurped by a private business called Blockstream (backed by mastercard) instead of remaining decentralized it would be warped into a centralized payment network.

Bitcoin Cash forked off and upgraded the blockchain by increasing the blocksize to prevent these filthy kikes from gaining control.

Bitcoin Cash is the true Bitcoin from 2008 all the way to today.

on reddit /r/bitcoin is completely censored so if you actually want information about bitcoin you need to browse /r/btc
