Yes you are right and aside from the BITCOIN and BITCOIN CASH feud, it is true that there are numerous scams in twitter and not only twitter as Facebook and Instagram and YouTube are most likely also having ads about bitcoin, and I think it really needs to stop.

Its probably Ver behind that one, but who knows? Ver can manipulate the crypto world with all of his thousands of bitcoins on the lurk on his wallet. But Twitter wouldn't probably to that one unless it cause destruction to huge individuals.

It's very dangerous if it goes on, because it creates a bit of celibacy in bitcoin and it will happen to a layman who has not fully understood the original bitcoin.

The @Bitcoin twitter handle is doing big damage to potential new investors by scamming them into BCash. I have already made a thread about this issue here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3369820.msg35308628#msg35308628And of course, I already had franky1 trying to explain how there's "Bitcoin Segwit" and "Bitcoin Cash" which is nonsense. No matter how many times you repeat it, they will think "Bitcoin Segwit" is an altcoin, when the altcoin is BCH, and BTC continues being the BTC that is has always been since day 1 on the same chain, now it just also accepts (optionally, you can ignore it if you don't like it) segwit format transactions. What's not to get about that, seems pretty simple to me.

advertises bitcoin cash as the real bitcoin and calling bitcoin core shit and bitcoin cash is the real bitcoin. calls bitcoin fans cult members seriously this twitter account is misleading new people to invest on the scam bitcoin cash instead of bitcoin.
Well I can understand you. This account is trying to misslead as many people as possible and pitch them to Bcash. But many people are aware of this and trying to censor an account won't change what Roger Ver is doing. He probably bought this account some while ago. This kind of attack is just making the real Bitcoin more resilient. People in this space need to face all kind of possible to learn as quick as possible and differentiate between right and wrong. Furthermore follow the @btc twitter account and retweet as much as you can by the way.

Actually we can’t do that. It’s actually their own opinions. However what we can do as members of the community is we fight for ourselves. Show them what are we really gaining for. Show them that everyone will benefit from it. And lastly, show them that it’s a win win for everybody. Fight them with their own medium, social media.

here we go again yet another topic of the same nonsense that only desires centralisation to the OP
replaace the word "bitcoin" with dollar
then replace the words CORE with america cash with canada btc with USD bch with CAD
and then run the scenario through your mind. are you truly saying that only america should OWN the dollar. and that canada is fake/impersonating.
use a brand vs own a brand the reality is NO ONE should own the dollar if they can show historic connection to the creator then they can rightfully use the dollar (british empire which then cvil wared/sought independance)
the reality is NO ONE should own the bitcoin if they can show historic connection to the creator then they can rightfully use the bitcoin (blockchain history back to satoshi's genesis block.)
both bitcoin cash and bitcoin core split away from historic consensus. avoiding concensus completly by doing a bilateral split . in short they both went in separate directions. so neither can claim ownership. both can claim utility of the brand, but not ownership
so all arguments that one side is claiming ownership also apply to the other.. unless you want to admit that cores protocol rules should centralise the brand and give core more power as a monarchy.
ver owning bitcoin.com is the same hypocratic drama as theymos owning bitcoin.org everything ver says about cash theymos says about core. everything jgarzic says about making cash wuille says about core. everything craig wright says about his early involvement. adam back says the same
if you look at who funded BLOQ to make bitcoin cash. and who funded blockstream to make segwit. you will se they ar the one and the same. dcg.co/portfolio/#b
its all one big kardashian drama of pushing people into 2 teams of kylie jenner vs khloe kardashian fanboyism. which outside of the box is just trying to get everyone to follow the kardashian family as a whol, like lost sheep.
if you dont see the rverse phsycology game ver is playing and you only see yourself wanting to defend and promote core as the centralist controller of "bitcoin" then you have already lost the big picture debate of decentralisation. and handed everything over to the puppet masters of centralising the ecosystem to one power house. and so your only reply would be "goodbye decentralisation. hellow distributed ledger" (yep rsearch thir desire for distributed ledger(DLT)) dcentralisation vs distribution are two completely different concepts
oh and dont even try replying with a core defence hat on. you would have already lost the debate and just sound like a hypocrit

easiest solution.. use the "dollar" analogy buyer: i want dollar seller: is that USD or CAD buyer: i want bitcoin seller: is that btc or bch by clarifying that bitcoin is not owned by one team and asking which one the person wants. ensures theres no issues

franky1 once again mixing terms. Your analogy of replacing BTC with USD and BCH with CAD or with America or Canada or whatever else just doesn't apply.
Bitcoin is still the same Bitcoin (BTC). BCash is an altcoin (BCH) working in an alternative blockchain, that doesn't follow the original chain's consensus rules, and 1MB is blocksize is part of that. The original client rejects BCash blocks for a reason.
Therefore, the twitter handle is misleading noobs into buying an altcoin claiming it's Bitcoin, and this is just a scam.

No, we can't. People are just using Bitcoin for advertisements and no one can stop it. Twitter will lose its users big time if they're going to do that.

I think we can but in order to do it we need to force Twitter to take a look at the propaganda machine behind that twitter account and be forced to take some actions against it. it is a tough thing to do though. we may need to start a petition campaign to force their hands. it may take a while and a lot of effort but it is something necessary that must be done. it may not be obvious to some people like Twitter team but this account is in fact scamming people.
I agree. The only one that can remove this and get the account out of hands of Roger Ver is twitter itself. However, its going to be a long process. Maybe they need to suspend it again and see how this handle is being used. And if they found grounds to suspend and even perma ban it then good. But as of now, the only way to fight this is too inform who's the real Bitcoin here and who is the fake ones.

It's true that some twitter accounts are leading people to fake new I read some tweets about bitcoin and it's very diasppointing because it's really a non sense thing if only bitcoin owner can talk to the twitter owner so that those kind of account will be delete on twitter it's really not helpful and this may cause trouble for some sho really wants to enter the bitcoin.

Nope. That would be censorship. No one owns the Bitcoin brand, and the account was gotten legitimately.
I do agree that there shouldn't be censorship but although noone owns the brand it still may violate the terms of service. We reserve the right to remove Content that violates the User Agreement, including for example, copyright or trademark violations, impersonation, unlawful conduct, or harassment.
It comes down to whether using @Bitcoin is impersonating an authorised body that doesn't actually exist. This is more like misrepresentation than anything else. One of the main reasons why people are backing Ver is because he used perceived "Censorship" on this forum and on Reddit as a secret weapon to attract people to join his new forum. Just an excuse to draw people to his site. {There was never censorship, they just blown it out of proportion to get people to leave this site} Back then, Bitcoin XT {Alt coin} was promoted by people in Bitcoin sections on this forum and they pushed the moderators to stop this from happening by moving their posts to the Alt coin section. Ver is not a idiot.. he used that in a very clever move to his advantage. <getting people to migrate to his site> Go to his site and promote Bitcoin <as a group> and see what will happen.

It is hard for it to be removed on twitter since the vast types of cryptocurrencies had already influenced too many people on twitter. The only way that it could be fully removed is to permanently ban all tweets regarding cryptocurrencies and bitcoin. As we all know from last year, Facebook had already banned post that is a form of advertising any type of crypto. We are not sure if twitter is gonna follow this track. ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

it will not, if you really want to delete it you can request a twiter campaign for bitcoin deleted too, because it is a bitcoin promotion form through a twitter campaign.

Why! I don’t think so. Because there is no reason to remove bitcoin from twitter because it’s a future cyrrency and people should know, many of them are doing business with this so they should help this digital currency because twitter also working for future so they should think about this and give higher preference. Bitcoin also online based digital money whereas twitters also an online platform so they should cooperate.

You should elaborate as to why you believe this! It's a discussion forum! I'd be very interested to hear why you believe Bitcoin Cash will overtake Bitcoin, and even reach $100,000 per coin.
