what Gavin's XT proposal does is not only automate out financiers, banksters, politicians, & corrupt gvts, but also DEVS.
esp a few core devs who think they know better.
and that, imo, is a worthy goal.
heads up.
the anti Gavin guys have taken to a new strategy on Reddit to push upvoted primary comments DOWN. that's by sub-commenting negatively and heavily in the top most upvoted comment so ppl read their negative shit first near the top. phantomcircuit (Strateman from Blockstream) and BitFast (Greenaddress skeptic) are filling up Gavin's thread with this strategy.
Reddit is already heavily astroturfed in favor of Gavin's strategy. Which if does include pushing other devs out is deeply wrong. I was on the fence before but I cannot support Gavin if he is trying to become the king of bitcoin. Its fundamentally anti-bitcoin and everything we stand for. What does this all come from? The aggressive need to scale so we can bubble again? Since when has this community become so greedy.
