Roger likes to promote this image of being in control and calm, when the reality is much different.

Roger invented the whole "Core" labeling - which is a software client, not a cryptocurrency.

Roger camped the Bitcoin dot com domain, using it to dupe newbies into getting his altfork token - even going so far as to make it a default choice with misleading wording. (It was only corrected later when he was called out on the scam.)

And that's just for starters.

His whole campaign is based on deception, misdirection and labeling. He isn't competing on merit like the other forks, he's demanding that everyone treat his altfork as Bitcoin.

This won't stand.

What Roger should consider is that not only is he trashing the very little credibility he has left, he's also angering some very capable and skilled geeks that have access to resources that Roger doesn't.

Why Roger decided to make this his personal "Waterloo" is anyone's guess, but beyond the ego-fluffing and the constant validation he seeks -- its pretty obvious that he's blinded by his own greed.

Whatever you do, don't call him out on it, because when that happens -- the facade cracks and the real colors show through:

What you see there is someone lording their money over another person, trashing their business because Roger doesn't approve, and basically losing his shit over a contraction that is easier to say.

That isn't calm, that's a glimpse of a psychopath.

I kind of feel bad for the kid. He was just so bound and determined to argue when he didn't have a clear argument. I don't particularly support core or cash, I'll just work with whatever's out there. I'm just saying the Bitcoin Cash guy had much more solid arguments. If I had to make a choice based on that debate I'd be going with Cash for no other reason that the Cash guy stayed calm and concise. Better to be honest than fanatical.

I give u upvote and follow u do aloso for me

Thank you

Great points and style, Roger. Calm, intelligent questions devoid of shouting is the way to do it. Thank you for demonstrating that.

wow - still promoting his product on HIS own. that is a real entrepreneur.

Roger is just being far too immature. He could have argued that he would rather pay a little bit more for the exponentially higher security..

Fees on Bitcoin have been averaging about 1sat/byte or 2 cent per transaction for the last 6 months.

It's just not true that the reason it's not 500sat/bytes anymore is that everybody stopped using bitcoin or switched to another coin like BCH.

That's Roger for all of what you did for Bitcoin in the past.

I see Bitmain who prefer payments in BCH and the premier producer of ASICS is now worth $12 Billion

BTC and Blockstream will go the way of the dinosaurs if they can't fight back in Merchant Adoption. Ether they get Lightning Network fully matured or go back to the drawing board.

Also I don't see anything seriously wrong with his famous middle finger selfie. Heck I remember giving out "the bird" to my haters back in my teenage and young adult years.

Overall, Roger kept his cool and put up a good argument for Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

Roger likes to put words in other people's mouths, and loves comparing apples to oranges, that's the bottom line.. Has done great work for Bitcoin as a whole, but what a shame now..
