Things are getting interesting in the Bitmain Leadership Struggle. Take the Poll on who you think is gonna win or not.

Great timing with the halving here in a few days, the Pandemic, and the USA Tariffs, etc.

Where is the option for "the same thing happens to Micree as happened to Jihan's former business partner Friedcat"? :(

friedcat (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=49840) profile, for those who are interested to read.

I also had this thread: Bitmain co-founder in legal war against shareholders of the company (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5216314.0), that somewhat chronicle Bitmain's power struggle between Wu and Micree-Zhan.

<...> he was surrounded by dozens of men including Bitmain’s Chief Executive Liu Luyao<...>
So, this sentence reminded me of one of those chinese movies with Yun-Fat Chow as main lead, right? when he's surrounded by the bad guys and stuff...Well, i'm bored so I decided to look for the video to see if this whole incident resembles Yun's movies...And, it took me a while but I think found the video (and, sadly, the whole thing doesn't resemble Yun-Fat Chow movies).

link for those interested (judging by some pics on chinese news websites, this is the video): https://www.storeapi.net/hot_search/52df287ff4da76ee65e51ac03a282bb4.html
There are 3 videos there: one is duplicated and it's the short version (21 seconds), and the other one is the long vers. (43 secs).

TL;DW: No fights (no one's throwing punches or kicking people in the balls) but there's a lot of yelling and pushing around.

EDIT* @Baofeng posted a thread above and one of the replies links a tweet with the video of the confrontation.

Would the "power struggle" start without Jihan Wu's accumulated losses for the support he gave for Rogercoin? I believe that's the eventual source of Mircee Zhan's misery over his "business partner".
