Apparently it's owned by
instagibbs now, who I have a generally positive perception of as being trustworthy and pro-Bitcoin. (Though I don't know him well.)
There are several good things about this:
- When BCH pretends to be Bitcoin, it's annoying and could cause confusion.
- It's nice that @Bitcoin is controlled by someone who is more technical and lighthearted rather than some finance person who doesn't know what they're talking about and is just trying to collect suckers. I like the bio.
- It was funny to see @Bitcoin trolling BCHers.
But I think that some Bitcoiners are still unconstructively vindictive about the whole BTC vs. BCH thing. It was settled years ago, and I'm content to let them thrive or (more likely) fail on their own. Expending any effort on it now is a waste of time, and could alienate some of them who are not totally lost. If it was me who'd gotten control of @Bitcoin, I probably also wouldn't be able to resist trolling the BCHers a bit, but after a while I'd ignore them near-completely and try to use the position to elevate the overall Twitter dialogue on Bitcoin. I hope that this is the direction instagibbs takes it.
Also,
if there was any top-down meddling from Twitter here, then it leaves something of a stain on the whole thing. (I don't know why people subject themselves to Twitter, which has proven time and time again to be a terrible platform...)
Aparentemente, la cuenta ha cambiado de manos, aunque en el twitter de
instagibbs hay unos cuantos que expresan su escepticismo al respecto, y le han pedido que lo demuestre, sin que lo haya hecho por ahora (es más, en su twitter responde con bastante cachondeo a algunas peticiones).
