I have a question for you BruceFenton. What exactly are you trying to achieve with this and with the Foundation? What is the plan in the short and long term? Are you trying to raise more funds? Do you simply want a new and clean Foundation? If not this then what else?

All joking aside it'd be good to see his answer to this ^^


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.

The goal is to have an organization with a clear and defined mission and those who agree with that mission can support it.

Here is the draft out for comment.

your not the one to be big noting yourself about goals




Do adults really have time to speak in cryptic nonsense?   What specific action have I taken that you have a problem with?

Is it humanly possible that Nick Szabo smiles more than you do? (I'll leave it to others to explain the joke if it flies over anybody's head)

I do know the history of the foundation The Nazi Party:  they had embarrassments, terrible board members, mismanagement, massive waste, PR disasters and wildly excessive spending combined with some good things done

Fixed.
Welcome aboard, Bruce. Wash the windows, hang a few curtains, and remember: the stench of prussic acid is easily masked by today's potent air fresheners.



Godwin's Law didn't take long to take hold.  

Just to be clear, are comparing me and others involved in a non-profit Bitcoin group to the Nazi Party who killed 6 million people?  All because the previous administration wasted money?

Is that correct, or was it just an attempt to be funny with a Nazi reference?

Let us pray to Jehovah that historians don't look into the late US senator Prescott Bush's past making a connection because the past is the past, thus not indicative of...

Bruce, Is the Junior Scientist position still open? Also interested in Vice presidency, if that's still up for grabs.
P.S. Have you considered MLM membership drive?

Junior scientist would be quite an affluent role for this company

 let me be clear. I'm not here to speculate. I'm here to suggest to you that:

a. If you don't know the history of your own foundation, then you're probably a potato; and
b. Nobody wants anything to do with Brock Pierce, chairman of the board of said foundation.




I do know the history of the foundation:  they had embarrassments, terrible board members, mismanagement, massive waste, PR disasters and wildly excessive spending combined with some good things done as well as a big drop in Bitcoin price.

As for Brock, he was elected by a majority of members, so I wouldn't say "no one" wants him.   Do you have a specific accusation about him?

Did you do any kind of research before accepting your new position? And by "research" of course I mean Google.

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.

Man, at this point we shouldn't have to. We all have the same frame of reference here. We all seem to know the shot except you.

What is it with crypto organisations and getting ravaged by the falling bitcoin price? Ethereum scuppered themselves too. Like it or not they should've secured their finances to an extent.

Yeah, you guys have got it all figured out....in between implying I'm associated with wrongdoing, calling me a liar and comparing me to Nazis you sprinkle in clever cryptic references to things like Trade Fortress like a group of teenage girls in a bad movie.

The Nazis killed somewhere between 20 and 30 million people. Not that I see the relevance, but that's a lot of dead people missing. BF was never real good with numbers so I thought I'd give you a heads up.

I shouldn't have had to tell you that 10 members of the board resigned upon the election of Brock Pierce, and I shouldn't have to tell you what kind of man he is.

But you use lots of words to not tell him. I think we can conclude that bitcoiners aren't all that economical.
