Just a little goodbye to all my fans here!  |-)

In the last month I've been posting some critique here, starting with

http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=4278.msg179112#msg179112

through a.o.

http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=13969.0

and

http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=15657.0

to

http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=25760.msg325929#msg325929

I must admit that some of my posts here were a deliberate attempt to drive down Bitcoin's exchange rate. Not because I'm an adversary to bitcoins, envy early-adopters or wanted to 'buy cheap'. It was because I thought the current value hinders proper development of what a decentralized currency could have been. Getting people to think about solutions of problems that lay ahead (trust me, they'll arrive) instead of shouting 'BUY' or 'SELL'.

However, I've now come to the conclusion that Bitcoin's flaws are too fundamental and no longer believe in the current block-chain concept, as designed by 'Satoshi Nakamoto'. Therefore this is my last post and I will use it to refer to if I someone responds to one of my former posts. Thank all of you who gave me some descent retort, good luck to you all, and may Bitcoin value florish (because I will be happy to keep selling you some)!
