I haven't seen anyone point out that the Bitcoin Foundation pays Gavin's salary, so that he can focus on developing the Bitcoin protocol. How much protocol development has happened in the last year? Nobody ever did have an answer to this question, did they? You want protocol development, go work on it yourself, you selfish bastard. This is an open source project, contribute yourself. Why do you think you get to dictate what sort of work the Almighty Bitcoin Foundation does. /TBF

I've have been for nearly a year now, or rather I've been directly supporting someone who is working on it. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=93606.msg2325555#msg2325555Why do you think you get to dictate what sort of work the Almighty Bitcoin Foundation does. Provide a direct quote where I did that or GTFO. I never demanded that anyone do anything. All I've done is ask for the people defending the foundation by saying "the foundation pays Gavin so he can work on protocol development" provide some evidence to back up their claims. All I've received in return to these queries is diversions and verbal abuse.

Nice try, sidestepping the actual issues (such as you know, accounting fraud, tortious misrepresentation and quite possibly false pretenses, quite definitely embezzlement and a myriad other civil and criminal violations) by failful personal attacks (nobody heard of you, I'm easily on any list of respectable voices on this forum, buzz off) and a laundry list of...nonsense. Conferences don't count, and there's literally nothing else on that list. Now go tell your puppet masters that a) you failed miserably and b) they'll need much much better damage control. Ideally, they'll need some lawyers. Preferably someone with an actual clue (which excludes Murck, he's the ninny that got them in their present muck). Oh, and since two can play that game, "Dr." Brian Goss (a freshly failed medical student in Chicago interviewing for residency training in radiology): here's your old page, from back when you were pushing the mywallet scam... For the noobs, mywallet was one of the first huge BTC thefts from a "hack" ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.browsershots.org%2Fpng%2Foriginal%2F0d%2F0d32523e519a12cae9d858b22ad3b800.png&t=665&c=gQLRBtAACPpsMQ) Wow... Lol...you must be new. I wrote an iPhone app called mybitcoin...and I'm in my final year of residency ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I think its time for action i had enough, enough is enough. The foundation must be destroyed.
IF we for example setup a new bitcoin superfund, MP can possibly head this fund which will result in the creation of a new foundation with core values such as :
- rapid and ongoing bitcoin software development - Focus on marketing and promotion of bitcoin - Lobbying Governments - Providing educational services for the public & business - Transparency (financial accounts must be audited)
Would the community support such an idea/ would MP like to head such an initiative? (atleast until we can vote in a learship board ?)
i think it's time for action and would love to come together as a community.
Destroyed? Seems a little harsh ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) That said, nobody has a patent on organizing people to pool resources around a common interest. Similarly, the Bitcoin Foundation has no monopoly. My belief is that the more groups pooling resources to help _all_ aspects of the community become stronger is a good thing. To state that the Foundation doesn't represent everyone or every interest is to state the obvious. The more we band together (be it here or elsewhere) the stronger we can make Bitcoin.

I also think you should do this. The BF is an organization supporting the spread of bitcoin. it is not the organization. You will be doing mostly the same thing that the BF does, except for "rapid bitcoin software development". I suppose that means you are also starting another client project, or a fork to another coin? Your team will need: -Lawyers -Experienced professional lobbyists -Business professionals (min. MBA +5 years as CEO or owner) -Professional educators / presenters / curriculum writers -Professional auditors and tax preparers who understand crypto -If you are writing code then programmers / project managers / a beta team / etc.? It will be a lot of work and cost a lot of money, but so does anything good. I say do it! P.S. This is not going to destroy the BF.

I think anything anyone can do to help strengthen a group of dedicated Bitcoin users is a good thing.
There is nothing to gain by tearing people down (falsely at least!) or inventing reasons to hate stuff. It's far better if we support new initiatives and defend their right to exist.

The more we band together (be it here or elsewhere) the stronger we can make Bitcoin
The more your ilk bands together, the shittier anything around you becomes. Ideally you'll soon find some altcoin or something like all other idiots.

Undoing the ignore long enough to skim this post was just not a wise move on my part... There's no need to unblock MPOE unless he departs from the usual stupid drivel, which is never. I wouldn't be surprised if his character assassinations were red herrings, some drama to draw attention away from his own questionable business. Twas my mistake indeed. I hope he's not taking advantage of too many newbies.

Ripple is the best alt-coin right now since it's based on other assets than itself (the users add the intrinsic value).
Kinda like how the US dollar is based on other assets than itself (the Fed adds the intrinsic value)? Ripple is a scam.

The printing press heralded the end of the Dark Ages and made the Enlightenment possible, but it took another three centuries before any country managed to put freedom of the press beyond the reach of legislators.
