Before people go off trying to deify Satoshi, they need to remember (or be informed) that Gavin himself was correcting Satoshi's coding mistakes. That was before even sharper devs came into the project.
We are all following an open source project with principles and with 100+ genius core devs.
We are NOT following a single person.
Don't go too far with your seeming attempts at nonsense openmindedness concerning the identity of Satoshi, Torque. Surely, Satoshi was far from perfect, but to concede that his level of either sloppiness or bullshitedness was even close to the pig troughs of Craig Wright seems to allow for way too much "openmindedness" that is hardly supported by any kind of evidence at all, besides pie in the sky conspiracy-theory numerology type evidence. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I wasn't even coming close to inferring that CSW could be Satoshi, JJG. That's what you mistakenly read in my post. CSW is a straight up con-man, a fraud. I was simply saying that who Satoshi is or was, no longer matters, nor should it for Bitcoin to be successful. Just like if Linus Torvalds were to exit the Linux project, or die tomorrow, it's continued development wouldn't suffer a bit. Especially because he tends to be an asshole anyway. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Honestly, this type of TA is still complete shit, especially in a drawn out bear market for Bitcoin. You wanna know why? Because the float is thin as shit right now, nothing but sideways wash trading going on for months. There are no major traders working, and plenty of long stops. So right now, *anyone* with any significant amount of bitcoin can sell off and move this market down significantly any time they want. And without buyers ready to jump back in and push things back up, the market will stay down at the new level. TA will never account for sudden shocks like that.

It was always a fear of mine since the clown surfaced. I really disliked him as a person from the first time i heard him speak. If I was going to gain access to a trust of btc on 1/1/2020 though, the last thing i would be doing is stating BTC is DOA. He will also have all the forks so maybe the theory is that he cant lose no matter what coin "wins" and all the better if he is in control of it.
Emphasis mine. This is pretty solid. Uh, actually if we want to be completely truthful about CSW's history, he had nothing but high praise for Bitcoin when he first showed up on the scene publicly. But when he tried to put his secret plan in place to completely centralize and control Bitcoin mining for his own monetary benefit, he found that he couldn't and failed. That's when he started claiming to be Satoshi and disparaging the Core dev team, the blocksize limit, SegWit, LN, etc. Which btw wouldn't make any sense if he was the real Satoshi. Like at all. God, I can't even believe people want to keep talking about this asshole. He's a complete fake, a phony, a con-man through and through.

only a 1 out of 20 2000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 chance IMHO
FTFY - think you missed a few zeroes there Also clinical Narcissists don't care if people love them or hate them, only that they are being talked about. Feeds them more supply.

I'm so glad that Tim Berners-Lee is still around so we can all consult him on how best to use the Internet going forward.
It's vital that we adhere to "Tim's Original Vision", because there aren't any other smartpeopleTM around to think about it for themselves.

I dont care whether CSW, Jihan or Cobra wins the hash battle.
One Bcash shitcoin is much like another.
Shhh, quiet you. Next thing you'll tell them is that the public will never buy any of their shit regardless. Quit trashing their dreams. And jbreher's.

Can't wait until BCash SV gets forked. Wonder what they'll name it?
Bitcoin Cash. Nah, that name's been taken. BCash DEF? BCash XYZ? BCash 123? BCash Phoenix? BCash SS (Slim Shady... get it?) But then what if that too gets forked? Oh noes...it could go on, and on, and on, and...

Yup. BCH, in the form of SV, is midway through demonstrating that: - so-called 'nodes' don't matter - miners decide, restrained only by the threat of users abandoning the chain - forks can be just an upgrade mechanism - decisively, if backed by hash - the most proof of work chain matters
But what doesn't seem to matter is actual user adoption, merchant adoption, investor interest, anyone really giving a shit, etc.

BAKKT launch
I thought YOU were smarter than THAT.. Not sure what you mean. I could give a shit about BAKKT. However, I am smart enough to know that the deep pocket players that will be playing the BAKKT game aren't going to start kick off without dumping the current market price first. Scare out the little guys and take positions. It's market strategy 101. And this market is so easy to dump (if you have the coins like miners and exchange operators do). The float is thin as a pancake. Overall daily trading volume is a joke. Hell, some of the exchanges could even be running completely phantom trades.

Not seeing the correlation between "a shaking of the ol' tree" and being merely a month out from the BAKKT launch? You think CSW's rhetoric timing was just a coincidence? Tsk tsk, I thought you guys were smarter than that... ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

Lol, you only show up on your own thread when dumps happen.
Silent as a mouse for months now.

I pray this is the sweet sweet sound of Ver, Wu, CSW, and that whore-n-party-loving man child douchebag guy selling all of their BTC forever.
Amen.

Ethereum has lost a lot of credibility this year, lots of ICOs moved away from it and its price crashed hard. If it (finally) fixes its scalability problem, it can be good for many projects and for the whole market.
Dude, you are not going to find any ETH or shitcoin sympathizers here. Ethereum has much bigger problems than scalability. Like having a reason for existing. Other than as a slow, shitty platform that allows other shitcoins to exist and trade. Zero real world use case. A solution looking for a problem that doesn't exist. Even Vitalik admits it.
