They don't support Bitcoin this proves it they want to get as much bitcoin with their fake help the community business and cash out directly to usd and become rich.

Don't think any of us trust them any more after recent events not that they have made Bitcoin better in any way or shape of form the foundation should be a non profit organsation but they want the money more than any thing else.

Aint that funny thing. They are BTC fundation. They promote BTC. But still they charge for membershin in dollars (you cna pay in BTC if you want). How funny is that?
For some time in the beginning, membership fees were a fix amount in BTC. After a while, people started complaining that "no one could afford these fees". There was a lengthy discussion within the Foundation about how this could be changed, with suggestions ranging from IIRC "peg it to GDP per capita" to the "Big Mac Index". In the end, pegging it to USD was the most pragmatic solution. Period. I fail to see anything funny in that.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

Do you support the Bitcoin foundation and if you can you give a valid reason why you do?

They are asking for donations in usd because people don't like spending their Bitcoin and want to hold.
