'Bitcoin Jesus' is 'really, really concerned' about the future of the digital currency
Nicknamed "Bitcoin Jesus," Ver was an early proponent of bitcoin and bought $25,000 worth in 2011 that is now worth $425 million. However, in the debate over how to improve bitcoin's transaction speeds and costs this summer, Ver sided with a minority of developers behind an offshoot called "bitcoin cash."

"The fact of the matter is, the utility of bitcoin has been damaged," Ver said. "If you feel like you missed out on bitcoin back in 2011, take a look at bitcoin cash, give it a use. I think you'll be really, really impressed with the usefulness."

Thanks for copy-pasting this article from somewhere,OP.
That fact that Roger Ver is an early adopter doesn`t make him "bitcoin Jesus".He didn`t invent bitcoin or the blockchain.He only wants more and more money and doesn`t care about bitcoin core improvement and mass adoption.The utility of btc has been damaged because of the greedy speculant traders pumping the price and people like him.

I bet it's just a stupid nickname some small group of people branded him. He was useful for Bitcoin and its growth for a time. He's become the opposite of thatt, of course, being one of the masterminds behind the recent Bitcoin Cash attack, and pulling stupid stunts like moving his Bitcoins to an exchange.

I concede that Bitcoin Cash can handle more transactions right now, but do they even have a road map? They can't just keep on increasing the block size. At least we have Lightning Network on the horizon. I also can't help but wonder how many people lost money on the most recent pump and dump. I'm betting Roger Ver got a huge chunk.
