How am I wrong? You're saying nullius had more involvement with the fundamental development of bitcoin than Gavin?
I purposely left out these parts for obvious reasons!
Or you mean I'm wrong that he shouldn't be able to have an opinion that Craig might be Satoshi (with the caveat that he also might just be some random scammer, and in either instance he should be ignored)?
Based on what I said in my previous post, and based on who Gavin was, he should not have had any opinion that isn't based on science and peer-review. He chose not to trust his former colleagues at the time, for whatever reason this may be.
I 100% believe that Gavin got duped, and even
he admitted that was a possibility, and knowing what you already know about
my post history here its ludicrous to entertain the idea for 1 second I am defending his 50% belief that Wright is Satoshi. I hope that's not what you were actually thinking.
I'd like to think this as well, but based on his previous attempt at forking Bitcoin with Hearn and continual support for these schemes I can't reasonably conclude this. Duped multiple times? Duped to this day? When will this fork-duping stop then?
Shitting on Gavin now isn't going to change anything for the better. Shitting on him for not yet completely taking back his words on Wright isn't going to change anything either.
Oh, but I am just starting with Gavin and Craig. It's quote a different perspective if you weren't heavily involved in things like this:
Back before these things actually were happening, I was spamming on the forum and people privately left and right to save as many individuals from being burned by the orchestrated scam as I could..
Not that this makes me any better than anyone at anything. It just made me personally involved with countless victims. We are talking about all kinds of losses - from very small to very detrimental (almost going bankrupt) because of Gavin (and others). I can't say "it's okay, what has happened has happened" after witnessing this. I am not asking you to hate him or to vilify him, but I ask you to also consider why people like me have the perspective on him that we do - and why we must act on it, as not acting on it would represent a fundamental self-betrayal (and that of the victims we had a chance to interact with).
Thanks uncle!
