No one involved with bitcoin at the beginning had the foresight to register Bitcoin.com?

Instead we let Roger Ver have control over bitcoin.com with his shady intentions.  I still think he is a good crypto supporter and he wants to see everything succeed but what do you guys think of him owning bitcoin.com?

I think it sucks that he's using it for his own agenda, but that's well within his rights. I also think he's only a crypto supporter in a sense that he's going to be in favor of moves that would benefit him financially -- so pretty much like most people in crypto, except with more power and influence.

Even if someone else had registered Bitcoin.com at the beginning, we have no idea what it's going to be used for. It's a valuable domain, and it's still going to be centrally controlled like it is now. I guess it is more ideal for someone who actually supports Bitcoin to control it though.

i don't think we can stop at "it sucks" and "it is his right" in this case because he has been scamming people over the past year+ and is in fact illegal activity, the fact that the law doesn't care yet because bitcoin is not regulated doesn't change the fact that the has been selling "fake bitcoin" to those who wanted to buy bitcoin.
