Re: I ran Bitcoin Core for >3 years, and I turned it off today
Mentioning XT gets you moved to altcoins? Are all the mods doing this?
Yes. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1148679.msg12102884#msg12102884
I assume they'll realise they're fighting a losing battle pretty rapidly. No one but a crusty handful believes it's a valid course.
Why? Bitcoin XT is an alternate client. Same as other clients like Electrum and MultiBit. It hasn't forked yet, and Bitcoin XT will always remain an alt client if there is no majority. Currently, Bitcoin XT does not receive and send an altcoin, it sends bitcoin! This is a mistake. BitcoinTalk mods are better than this.
The fact that they're trying to censor it shows they're affraid. Call bitcoin XT an altcoin is the dumbest shit i've seen.
Im not a noob I've been on this forum since 2011 b4 the first bubble. We got many folks since. If you censor because you're afraid ppl will choose to folk you're losing the battle.
Bitcoiners DO NOT have to follow the core dev. This isnt a cult.
It's not being censored, you're all just paranoid.
