Thank you for your interest in BlockstreamTM. Based on your response, I believe you have questions regarding (George Foreman Grill). Is this correct?

Forgive my petulance and oft-times, I fear, ill-founded criticisms, and forgive me that I have, by this time, made your eyes and head ache with my long letter. But I cannot forgo hastily the pleasure and pride of thus conversing with you.

Hiring a majority of the devs of the inertia driven "reference" client has proven much cheaper than a 51% attack, highlighting a fragile facet of our antifragile currency.

they have good intentions and are good people/coders, but they do a terrible job in listening and making consensus. just imagine what would have happend if they said they are okay with 2MB? no drama, all people (miners, commuity, business) would be happy.
now we have bitcoin classic. lets see how this will play out.

Thanks (LiteCoinGuy). Did you know Blockstream's amazing off-chain methods are fun to learn. Watch as your employees' confidence skyrockets when they begin to realize the true potential of their own projects.At that first visit I weighed 269 lbs. pounds. My goal was to lose 80+ pounds. Wow! It seemed unattainable at first. Could I really do that? So much bloat! Not on my own, I decided. I now had the help and support of my Blockstream TM consultant. Having someone in my corner to hold me accountable gave me the strength I needed. Thanks Blockstream! -Jenny from Craig I'd driven by the Blockstream compound, but didn’t know it was like this. When I had the session today, I was amazed at how much I could remember. I even remembered something from when I was really, really young. There is something really different here. I have not been this happy and really smiled like this in a very long time. -Wilson from Los Angeles

Hi, I'm Adam Back.
I have a Ph.D. and invented Bitcoins proof of work system. Satoshi probably ran away like a little pussy because he was afraid I would sue him for stealing my work. As such, Bitcoin belongs to me and I can do whatever I want to do with it. If you all don't like blockstream and my new direction for Bitcoin then you can suck my ass with a straw.
Thank you, The real creator of Bitcoin.

Thanks Blockstream! If you hadn't taken over Bitcoin Develoment and so utterly screwed it up, and destroyed the public perception and reputation of Bitcoin, making it look like it was run like a team of retarded squabbling monkeys - then my bitcoins would probably be worth over $1000 each by now. It is amazing that only 9 months ago everyone was looking at Bitcoin as Digital Gold, a Safe Haven Currency that people would run to in the event of a Global Financial meltdown. Thank God you were able to completely screw that up by the time the recent meltdown occurred. So now, instead of people flocking to bitcoin as stock markets tank - people are selling their bitcoins. Whew! Glad I dodged that ugly "money making" disaster ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) LOL

I remember having to load it up with several floppies and learning PRODOS to get it running on the old apples that were contracted out to the elementary schools when I was a kid. Is that new version one of Blockstreams latest projects? Nice!!!

Dear Adam, I know you like to frame yourself now as the founder of bitcoin. But we both know that is not true. You took your hashcash idea and turned it into a failed email spam blocker. But I took hashcash and used it as the foundation of an P2P electronic cash system, which 7 years later is used by millions and has a market cap of $6.5Bn. I understand your utter frustration at this. But you have to let it go. Raging on twittter, employing trolls, condoning criminal DDOS attacks and subverting my original vision will not bring you any joy. I designed bitcoin to resist such acts of small mindedness in a transparent and unyielding fashion - the majority will decide which way they want to go. Again, let me say how sorry I am for your lack of vision. hugs & cuddles Satoshi.

Welcome Back Satoshi! Very well put I must say.
Interesting Poll numbers..... looks like the majority of people think Blockstream/Core has only achieved their current position through manipulation. Not exactly something to be proud of. Well, soon we'll be rid of the lot.

If XT succeed, I will wave goodbye to Bitcoin. Thank you for saving us from a benevolent dictator and IP Blocking and Blacklisting of coins and tx reversals. If we wanted that, we would all be using PayPal. Your next task will be to up the Block size a little, even if it is only to counter the Bitcoin Classic attempt at gaining consensus with their proposal.
Keep up the good work and ignore the FUD. ^smile^

If Bitcoin Classic succeeds, will it wave good bye to bitcoin. If the only difference between Bitcoin Classic and Core is the 2MB block size, will you support it?
