Interesting, perhaps he can answer about the hype that is going on around bitcoin classic.

I heard there was some backdoor meeting between miners and classic.

He has most of the bigger Bitcoin merchants convinced that Classic will be the best solution for their problems for about 3 months, and now he is shifting his attention to the miners. If he can get their support, Classic will be the next hard fork.

This whole thing are playing out like a election campaign for a new president. I see some similarity between him and Trump at the moment. ^hmmmmm^

He did a previous AMA here - https://forum.bitcoin.com/ama-ask-me-anything/i-m-gavin-andresen-bitcoin-geek-ask-me-anything-t1990.html

Will he reply in Chinese this time ?

[Denker]

That guy is a joke!!!!Attentention whore and big manipulator and schemer!!The way he speaks, behaves and laughs on stage is so fake!!
I'm waiting for his whiny rage quit to be honest!
That's all you need to know!

[antirack]

why he is doing in on 8btc.com which is a Chinese platform and it doesn't even have an English version

8BTC.com has been around for a VERY LONG time, with very serious Bitcoin supporters.

8BTC.com was like a sloop when first established in 2011. It was not before too long that 8BTC received the first donation from QQagent, the moderator of the Chinese sub-forum of Bitcointalk, as well as the Chinese translator of Satoshi’s Bitcoin White Paper.

From this 2013 article:

That guy is a joke!!!!

You are a joke; a late adopter nobody with an 'opinion'.

[countryfree]

That guy is a joke!

If he is, so is BTC. M.Andersen has been the public face of BTC for many years, and he's probably the most respected BTC developer, only behind the unknown Satoshi. Sometimes, I wish he would still be in charge, there would be less of the governance problems BTC's going through.

Thanks for organising this. Will the question and answers in Chinese be translated back to English? Hoping to find out what are the current concerns that Chinese miners and bitcoiners have on Bitcoin Classic.

That's all you need to know!

Something you need to know is Gavin. I doubt you have ever met him or have any inkling about coding. So how would you know?

+1, the guy got Bitcoin through it's toughest phase. I'm sure there will be a long list of key people to Bitcoin in the years to come and that list starts with Satoshi, then Gavin. Good bloke, hope the AMA goes well.

Will there be a copy of this stored somewhere to read in English?
Was going to ask for video but realized that would be a no go.

Interested in what comes out of this because I really have not used core yet but plan to when I use a new setup and the issues around it seem to be big.
