Compare to Roger's arguments:


Bitcoin Jesus Judas gonna Bitcoin Judas.

In fact, this is currently a hot topic on r/bitcoin: "Roger Ver - Are you trying to make a name for yourself as the guy who destroys Bitcoin?"

I used to give him the benefit of the doubt... but all the fear-mongering, and now financially backing Bitcoin Unlimited and running a BU pool (currently in "testing")... it's too much. Don't remember the exact wording but he said in a recent interview that splitting into multiple networks would be "the best option for Bitcoin."

That's really too much. How the fuck is the world gonna react to multiple Bitcoin networks? Plus that means > 21 million coins (or at least the appearance of that). I'm pretty sure there would be transaction replay across networks (similar to ETC/ETH) unless the hard forkers specifically plan for multiple networks to survive.....

Such a crapshoot. Just leave us alone, Roger. You're killing Bitcoin.
