Title: btcinformation.org - a community maintained fork of Bitcoin.org Post by: gentlemand on August 04, 2018, 06:06:46 PM https://btcinformation.org
https://btcinformation.org/en/posts/announcing-btcinformation.html What do you reckon? The start of a more neutral era or a hopelessly naive stab in the dark? I for one look forward to the day that all Bitcoin websites are irrelevant. It's not as if you go check gold.org when you buy that golden cock ring you always promised yourself.

I'm glad that the Core developers don't let themselves get distracted by any of this nonsense, and that while they have been showered with tons of criticism because of their conservative (long term minded) approach. Where people are involved, there are problems. After a while there is something else that will be subject to plenty of meaningless discussion. I lost count on how many drama chapters we have gone through. I'm however sure that there are plenty more to come. :D Title: Re: btcinformation.org - a community maintained fork of Bitcoin.org Post by: buwaytress on August 07, 2018, 03:44:12 PM Belated response here. Pragmatic point of view? I'm never going to remember that URL well enough to find it without bookmarking it. Idealist point of view? I think everyone is free to come up with their own vision and idea. Doesn't matter if it's thinly-veiled egoism or misled idealism. I imagine Bitcoin's earliest proponent would have had to face up to similar accusations. I'm sure they're at peace with that now =)
There's no need, and no value to purport to standing by an "original vision" of Bitcoin. Bitcoin's grown well out of Satoshi Nakamoto and it is today what it is because of the cumulative work that everyone who ever cared for it has done. I'm not the most educated person, nor the most technical, hardly the most hardcore Bitcoin supporter, but I choose it because it's the right fit for me. It probably always will be for the foreseeable future. @gentlemand: I'm guilty of going to diamond.com in 2005 when I wanted to buy a diamond ring. True story. Website's gone now, and seems to have been bought by... a crypto exchange. Funny. |
