The announcement of the Bitcoin Foundation has shaken this community; its thread received 50 plus pages and over 13K views in about 72 hours.
LOL
It seems to me the only ones who were shaken were a relatively few who posted the same paranoia over and over again.
The exact same paranoia was posted in 50 plus pages?
Not all exactly the same. There was different types of paranoia mixed in with downright hating.
I am neutral myself, perhaps tending towards somewhat positive. I don't see the foundation as being any danger to Bitcoin,
nor of it being a great force bringing awareness and light to the masses.
There are many ways it can help, sure, along with many other factors.
Yes, I agree exactly with your last sentence. It's the "along with" other factors that raises concern.
You are concerned about other things helping bitcoin along with the foundation helping it?
That's what I was saying.
