The way I see it, Bitcoin is a technology.
https://bitcoincore.org/ and #bitcoincash are just the 2 closest implementations. Difference is, the method been sought using the #LightningNetwork couldn't be any further from the spirit and intention of the white paper.
I have a few more cut an pastes to drop in but when I'm done for the day I'll come back and gladly debate anyone as I've just become aware of this who uproar a few months ago.
Short and tall, bitcoin.com has everything in place for the n00b to see there is BTC and BCH. They can see clearly that 2 are labeled and anyone can label bitcoin however they want. It's not an owned or trademarked name.
To be honest. BTC is been pretty misleading because it's technically not even that now.
When Steam and Microsoft dropped BTC, it became loud and clear that Core and it's supporters had succeeded in making bitcoin just like real gold. Cumbersome and no longer viable as cash.
When we say Bitcoin Cash is bitcoin. Were not been literal. You guys do realise that? The problem with btc.com is that you are assuming newcomers are not smart enough to read and tell the difference.
Bitcoin is a technology. Core = Long term stable store of value. I hold amounts for this very reason. Cash = Just that. I use my bitcoin cash for that.
Core = HODL / HOARD
Cash = Use / Spend
The attitude difference is major as well. Outside of the flame wars, you will find we are more than happy to debate. But even you're own are noticing that this viscous tactic of attacking others who associate with rog is kinda brutal. Like what yous did to that poor reporter the other day..
TL:DR?
Your gripe is with Bitcoin.com and Roger Ver.
Stop acting like children and keep the technology out of this.
We are not responsible for his actions.
Unlike Bitcoin, we don't have a leader or central group who are responsible for the entire future of an open source piece of software.
Go check your /roots... This isn't what we started btc for...
