its not like Gavin can't contribute anymore...
besides Gavin contribution these days is helping out competing implementations.
Core will NOT be in power forever, its only a matter of time.
as much as is scares the pants off JayJuanGee, governance WILL change.

Oh, I would imagine that Gavin could get his privileges back if he were to get back involved in bitcoin and interacting on a regular basis in a constructive (rather than seemingly destructive way). I have no problems with changes in governance, but the latest one needs to be recognized for what it was, an attempted coupe that would have allowed bitcoin to become anyone's bitch with ease and propaganda. It is great that core both recognized and appears to have won the attempted hostile overthrow that would have turned bitcoin into an easily changing bitch rather than the robust decentralized structure that it is and that it has a very strong foundation to, through time, challenge the very essence of money on an international basis. Bitcoin was, in no way, prepared to serve as a competing microtransactional system on almost an immediate basis as was seemingly proposed by XT and Classic. |

Good morning Bitcoinland. Finally starting to creep upward again I see. Looks like Craig W's little shenanigans just created some publicity. There's no such thing as bad publicity.  BTC1500 ask wall @ $450 on finex was eaten.
Thanx for the post. I was wondering if it would be eaten or pulled when I left to go to the ballpark and a night of drunken debauchery last night. That answered my question. |

Well I'm glad to see Craig didn't manage to destroy the value, maybe we'll be seeing a few people coming to Bitcoin with a new interest in it, or just out of plain curiosity. Maybe we can get more people coming out of the woodwork and start claiming they're Satoshi, I wouldn't mind seeing this trend continue  |

 its going to 520 with 2 legs up in <48hours. i can FEEL IT! shits about to get real. buy Buy BUY!!!!!!!!Oh boy you can FEEL IT  As I am highly sugestive I bought just after your post. That makes it 11 of the last 15 days. As my daily/weekly limits are small that's how I have to do it. Also good for dollar cost averaging if that even matters. Adam what sort of guarantee does the $520 in under 48hours have? Oh wait it doesn't say $520 it says 520.  I guess like many people I am gullible  |

https://laanwj.github.io/2016/05/06/hostility-scams-and-moving-forward.htmlDay in, day out, there is trolling, targeted attacks, shilling on social media targeted toward us. Poor Wlad, did he think they'd be able to pervert p2p cash into a crippled settlement token for off chain products with nary a complaint? I can agree that Gavin's judgement has been weak, often underestimating adversarial actions and actors. Handing over the repo to these guys, for example.

He seems like a man of integrity, and I wish him well in his life. As for Craig, however... |

I buy most of my coins from various ATMs. The rest I buy directly from people. On Monday I paid 5% over BitcoinAverage spot at the newest "lowest rates in town" ATM. It was a buy-only Lamassu machine with absolutely no identification required. It doesn't print anything so I was a little concerned about the lack of a receipt but by the time I got home after running an errand it had already been confirmed 4 times. Luckily I brought my own paper wallet. |
