Andreas Antonop's tweet is the worst news yet that I've heard for bitcoin. 

Looks like Andreas is done with the Bitcoin Foundation. Good. Screw the Bitcoin Foundation.

"I can no longer have even the smallest association with the Bitcoin Foundation, because of the complete lack of transparency" https://twitter.com/aantonop/status/486926129409052672

The Bitcoin foundation has gained Pierce and lost Antonopolos.  This isn't going in the right direction at all.

Title is wrong it should be "Very severe blow to the bitcoin foundation, Bitcoin unaffected"

Yeah, headline way off.

People who don't know of Andreas (most of them) won't care and the foundation will go on and hopefully do some good despite their "issues."

And the people who do know of Andreas mostly dislike how the foundation is being run already. Plus he's said he didn't want anything to do with them in the past.
