Too late for Coinbase. Never forget.

@waxwing @mydogisahusky Hacking Team were pretty lame. Their server wasn't encrypted which is why we know they sold services such as "Remote control" to the FBI and other countries.

JP Morgan can exploit inflation bugs again.

"Free dinner if you listen to our pitch about timeshares."

The dna of an org. or company is sometimes given away by something as simple as naming.

MtGox - this is just a nerdy game to us (well, *me* - it was just Mark).

Coinbase - we don't really give a fuck about the open source protocol we're using to build our company, so the coinbase/Coinbase naming conflict doesn't matter.

(see also: "Blockchain", somewhat different tho')

Ethereum - sci-fi creativity is what really drives us, it's all about the fun of creation, we're not into "hard"/real money.

Bad actor.

Bitcoins are not owned, they are controlled. When people "owns" a bitcoin, that means people acknowledge the privilege to control it.

FACT: Bitcoin was the 9th most viewed Wikipedia article in 2017, just behind the entry for the USA and ahead of Elon Musk, Star Wars and Facebook. In 2010, Wikipedia editors deleted the Bitcoin page calling it a scam. Wikipedia now accept Bitcoin donations.

The first years on the Internet, we got online DESPITE telecom companies, not through them. Now, Bitcoin succeeds despite banks, not with them.

Nouriel Roubini (@Nouriel) is an extraordinary talented propagandist!

Notice how everything he says about the general scam industry (#blockchain/#crypto) is true, while everything he says about #Bitcoin is a false.

The conflating of the two is not by accident.

Roger Ver who's lying 100% of the time, is a complete amateur compared to this guy!

We need to immunize against this by more clearly differentiating from the non-bitcoin crypto/blockchain industry.

"The GNU project was officially announced on 27 September 1983 by Richard Stallman." https://soylentnews.org/article.pl?sid=18/09/28/0726219 corporate media ignored the anniversary. Not a coincidence, but consistent with this media's agenda. #gnu #freedom

Bitcoin is not a posh new train on old tracks. It does not require those tracks, because it can fly.

The shapeshift situ. :

People on birdsite appear confused. Truth: Voorhees has a background in business, marketing and is one of *the* most talented in the space in that area. However, he is a disgraceful traitor to Bitcoin's cause, big supporter of NYA/S2X and constantly supporting shitcoins since late 2014. Why did he switch? Because the only thing he ever gave a shit about was preening his ego and making huge bags of money from rubes.

Note how common this is amongst 'businessmen' here.
