Too many old men and old ladies into BTC now. This was never about making money for fonestar and he has been in Bitcoin since early 2012.

Some of you H0DLers think you are buying an annuity or a pension plan. That's not how tekk works. If you don't innovate you stagnate and Core has shown me that not only do they have no interest in innovation... they are more into self-strangulation. BTC has historical advantage of being the first crypto-currency and the longest un-forked chain. That's an interesting thing but also technically useless. I have lots of old radios, cell phones and computers that are interesting too. They are not stores-of-value either.

I was neutral for a long time... kept thinking that BTC would get its kaka together. Gave them lots of chances, but no more... I'm all in for "the Flippening" to BCH. I think BCH preserves the original crypto-anarchist spirit, the true vision of Satoshi Nakamoto's global Peer to Peer Electronic Cash System.

The Bitcoin is Dead! Long Live Bitcoin!

(oh yeah... one more thing Core Dev... Bitcoin is for "poor people")

It does not matter who holds bitcoin for the direction of it, it matters how it is used. I guess you could argue that too many holders don't use it for transactions and that's why such high fees have become standard. Block sizes will increase soon which should greatly improve things (not a moment too soon) and then in some time after LN can come in which could really turn things around for bitcoin.
