Roger Ver to be sued for defrauding bitcoin newbies.

[henry 94]

There was a documentary on TV in my country about Bitcoin and the millionaire people and Ver R. was speaking for a few minutes. It was enough now we call this guy a "guignol"

I see the website is currently fixing bitcoin instead of bitcoin money and it seems that ver roger is trying to make people think that bitcoin is bitcoin cash so change it that way but in my opinion it is not good and it reflects the badness of bitcoin cash

Many people are upset about this situation especially what you refer to as 'badness'

Even though the lawsuit will not go ahead Ver still can make amends and put a hand of friendship towards the community by using his bitcoincash.org domain for Bitcoin Cash and by using the bitcoin.com domain for information about Bitcoin or better still by giving the domain to the bitcoin.org team so ALL the confusion can stop once and for all.

He went so far as to claim that Bitcoin Cash outperformed Bitcoin Core (as he calls bitcoin) on all counts, except for the "longest chain with more proof of work" (due to the fact that the Bitcoin Core network is larger and, accordingly, has more processing power). Since then, the situation is heating up, and above all because Ver continues to refer to Bitcoin Cash as a bitcoin.

That is the saddest part about the whole situation, it was Bitcoin that made Ver super rich yet he seems to have nothing good to say about Bitcoin.

 I cant believe there were people dumb enough thinking anything good will come out of it. Roger wins again. The sooner people realize how decentralisation works the better.

I hope this forces Ver to reflect back on his actions and look at how people perceive it. Say what you want about what is signed into law and all, but this IS misleading.When you are doing fraud at such big scale, it is just matter of time someone influential becomes a victim.

I hope so too but so far no word from Ver about it.

[JollyGood]

This will serve as a lesson to as many as with bad intentions, so many bitcoin enthusiasts say that Roger Ver is one of the main characters who will damage the crypto world because his greed and such misleading actions, I hope they will have success with this lawsuit as it will be a major breakthrough.

The lawsuit will not go ahead because of a lack of funding

 It's similar to the lawsuit against cigarettes for "killing people". At the end of the day, it's your choice to believe him and anyone even remotely educated on cryptocurrency would understand the difference between BTC and BCH

What you say is true but newbies are not to be blamed for the confusion the bitcoin.com domain is causing by conflating Bitcoin with the forked Bitcoin Cash

[blazsqd]

it seems roger ver is trying very hard to try to substitute bitcoin cash into bitcoin so try to buy some assets and a website called bitcoin and used to inform bitcoin cash. it's sad if new users make a mistake when buying. It would be expensive for both sides, and Ver would have to spend a fortune defending himself. Given that he has profited from the confusion, he could be liable. It is my understanding that he quickly changed his conduct and the lawsuit was canceled.

What happened was that the group taking Ver to court did not have enough funds therefore the lawsuit did not go ahead, they raised a few dollars in donations to fund the action so thanked all donors then closed down.

I heard that Roger Ver has a criminal past that he was brought to criminal liability earlier. If this is true then I'm not very surprised by his style of work. To play on the fact that many people do not understand the difference between a real bitcoin and his fork - it's very mean.

Well the issues surrounding the fork and the creation of Bitcoin Cash by Ver along with the confusion caused by the information provided via his bitcoin.com domain is one thing but to drag out his criminal past is another. Yes the confusion caused by calling Bitcoin Cash the 'real' Bitcoin is not helping anyone and as you said maybe it is mean. I hope Roger will stop it for the sake of newbies at least if nothing else.

I think it is fair to be critical of anyone because of any subject including crypto and Ver but it must be within the bounds of decency. Under no circumstances should anyone keep having their one-off mistake that was made years ago to be kept being thrown in their face and keep being used as a way to undermine them.

No matter what our views (positive or negative) about Ver we should keep it limited to crypto related issues. Anybody who keeps digging out and mentioning the "criminal" past Ver has should stop it because you only bring your own reputation down when you attack his. Whatever he did it was a long time ago - forget it, move on, be polite and remain civil

Thank you

yes you are right i think roger ver want to take over the name of bitcoin and put the name of bitcoin cash into bitcoin, then it'll eventually affect the general adoption of bitcoin.

As a newbie you seem to know a lot about Roger Ver and Bitcoin, where did you get your information from? This website or somewhere else?

[DimensionsOfHell]

this businessman was accused not so long ago of Bitcoin Cash's commitment. the administrator of the magazine CoinTimes sued him. the reason was that Roger is misleading the users of the site bitcoin.com, because of what newcomers can mistakenly buy Bitcoin Cash instead of official bitcoin.

Where is the evidence or website link that shows "the administrator of the magazine CoinTimes sued him. the reason was that Roger is misleading the users of the site bitcoin.com, because of what newcomers can mistakenly buy Bitcoin Cash instead of official bitcoin" because I never heard of this before.

The only lawsuit I know of was discontinued because hardly anybody donated to the action. Plenty of people were backing the action saying Ver should be sued but when it came to people sending their donations to the lawsuit team they raised a few hundred dollars when they hoped to have received a few hundred thousand by then.

[mr-sk]

Roger Ver has always been the cancer of crypto, and we all agree on that.
This is the main reason of why i agree on this at 100% ,a lot of people were deceived by Bcash

[JesseHenderson]

From the first time BCH went out I already doubted it. Didn't even participate into getting that BCH airdrop that they are giving.it's sad if new users make a mistake when buying.
