lol, I know a little bit about Ver, don’t know who the guy is. But people in this market really need to get their shit together. Especially as we see big money pouring into this market. This is just embarrassing for everyone. Unfortunately today, most of the people who are "experts" on this subject are massive trolls, extremely untrustworthy and are HUUUGGGEE turn off for people who actually have money and can fund projects. This really need to change ASAP.
In US everyone is happy as long as all the prices are rising. Unless its crude oil - Marc Faber

nah. what we need is ross ulbricht out of prison. we need a proper dnm.
I dont get it Lucky have you not read above? I said I dont give a shit about Roger Ver. I reckon he is a cool dude but I dont care about him ok?????? I dont care if Bitcoin cash succeds or not either. My main wish is that Blockstream gets analed in the butt everyday by the bankers when the bilderbergers ask them to explain WTF they are doing
dude get it right, I am PRO-TECHNOLOGY. My understanding is that BITCOIN has taken a wrong path because the bankers are controlling it. So I just move on and support many other Blockchain technologies out there.
I will post this again, These are the main reasons, please tell me this is actually positive for bitcoin:

And then there's the "Board Advisor,"
Lawrence H. Summers:

In 1995, he was promoted to Deputy Secretary of the Treasury under his long-time political mentor Robert Rubin. In 1999, he succeeded Rubin as Secretary of the Treasury. While working for the Clinton administration Summers played a leading role in the American response to the 1994 economic crisis in Mexico, the 1997 Asian financial crisis, and the Russian financial crisis. He was also influential in the American advised privatization of the economies of the post-Soviet states, and in the deregulation of the U.S financial system, including the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act."
but you do know the community has to come to consensus in order to run new features, upgrades or whatnot the developers are proposing right? it just happened that core are the smartest people in the room, so the community follows them.
