Seems to me that team Roger ver were the people behind sudden upsurge of bitcoin. Undoubtedly Roger was the very first person to acknolwedge the beauty of bitcoin. He must be with BCH for a solid reason. Saying this I completely agree that bitcoin could lose its decentralization potential if it continues to stay the same way. Block size is filling up fees are increasing. We might just end up becoming puppets of mining companies. As the price of bitcoin is increasing fees like 200sats/byte mean around $2-3 which makes it difficult for transacting small amounts. We need a different protocol for sure.
He certainly was NOT the first person to acknowledge bitcoin.
If you are looking for early investors that evangelized bitcoin, you should look at Trace Mayer as he was in bitcoin before Roger.
You should also look at Wences Casares.
