There's no denying it: Bitcoin is the only DECENTRALIZED method of payment in the world. No one controls how it is operated or mined.
Neither mining nor any other council is necessary. A rich person is yet again trying to exert influence over Bitcoin. Bitcoin uses energy and it is not a secret. <snip>
Thoughts? Oh, for a start, how about providing a link to what you are talking about?
Beyond that, a 'council' implies a centralized operating body and that is not going to happen with
BTC as it goes against it's guiding principal.
