seems this topic doesnt want facts. so let post facts
[...]

4. seems the topic creator wants to hide reasons

No, this topic’s creator wants to protect a productive discussion from being derailed into an offtopic flamewar by a notorious troll who somehow always twists others’ wrongdoing into an attack on Core.  It is a highly effective smear tactic:  Correctly call out bad people who do bad things, and in the same breath, add false equivalencies and sinister insinuations to condemn exactly the people who are doing the most to stop them.  E.g.:

1. gmax today posted a tweet link trying to make it appear

...ninja-edited to:
1. [someone] today posted a tweet link trying to make it appear

(No, he didn’t try to present any false appearance; and it is clear that you are here more to troll Greg Maxwell than to talk about Faketoshi.)

...or, ad nauseam over the course of years:

ver plays theymos's mirror
wright plays adam backs mirror

the only good thing i can say about blockstream is that adam back has stopped his wright-esq PR campaign of saying he (A.B) invented bitcoin due to "hashcash" algo..

Yeah, right:  Because Wright is cited in the paper in which Satoshi first described Bitcoin to the world, and Dr. Back claimed to have invented something other than Hashcash.  A perfect “mirror”, that!

Excerpts from bitcoin.pdf, citing Hashcash

(Two decades ago, I was eager to use Dr. Back’s Hashcash as a means of stopping spam (although I knew that it was no “FUSSP” panacea—nothing is).  Satoshi delivered a stroke of brilliance, re-applying the same idea together with others, plus new innovations, in a totally different problem domain to make a Byzantine agreement for preventing double-spends without a central authority.  That is why Satoshi invented Bitcoin, I didn’t—and I never saw Dr. Back claim to have invented Bitcoin, either.  Most work builds on prior work; and if I had one of my creations used by another as a keystone in a greater edifice, then I would take bragging rights, too!)



if your just going to delete my post. also delete doomads post that is even less ontopic

DooMAD correctly predicted my response.  I will thus duly file your moderation advice in “taken under advisement”. 🗑️

Now, I have briefly deconstructed what you do, so that readers of this thread will know why I am deleting your posts—and why I intend henceforth to delete your posts without further comment.  I have also carefully archived your drivel, just in case anybody actually wants to read it.
