unnecessary political actions ... seemingly aimed at causing and/or exacerbating political divisiveness within the bitcoin space.

this was my gut reaction to his latest blog posts too...

he's only human, and one of us "big blockers" going apeshit as we watch fees climb and TX times get longer as price suffers while we should be in a glorious bull market.

he using his company's status as added weight to his argument, hard to blame him.. but not exactly professional...

O.k... take for example, when a few months ago, he said that Coinbase was going to support Classic XT etc... or whatever that was... o.k... fine.. that's within the business decisions to announce such, but after several interventions and strongly worded advocating posts and publications, it seems that Armstrong has been going much beyond his business to really act like a bit of a bully. 

It's just getting to be a bit too much for me, and maybe I am not correct in how I am reacting by removing most of my coins from Coinbase, but it seems that removing some money from Coinbase would be a reasonable way for me to act as an individual in order to exercise my indirect personal speech. 

My proclaiming my stance and my intended action in this thread is also a way for others to consider the matter from my point of view as well, and I am certainly only a small impact compared with him, but when I describe what I am doing, then others can consider whether they are inclined to do something similar as me (or maybe the opposite)... which causes a bit of a bigger reaction beyond the impact of my own individual action... I can continue to post on the matter in other bitcoin forums, too, and I can inform my real world friends as well.
