I'm sorry. I beg to differ. I may not be a gentleman but I *try* to be a gentleman with anyone I'm dealing with whether it's in the BTC world or not.
This culture is so nascent, that there's still room for civility to take root - at least among well intentioned miners & speculators - while taking calculated risks.
i guess the pioneers of btc were genuinely gentleman, but after them i'm seeing more greed than good intentions
"gentleman" in satoshi's meaning equals people concerned about btc ecosystem.
a healty decentralization could be acheived if all the community subscribed a tacit gentleman's agreement refusing to mine with asics
It's nice how anyone with just a CPU can compete fairly equally right now
looking at the present situation, people acted like "gentleman" ?
sorry for being too cynical
