Sure, one bit needs to be unfucked from ABC shitlord, that s true and EDA must go asap. Afaik it is on the road map. But its not a consensus relevant issue, working transactions is the most critical thing
Removing it now won't matter. It's too late for that. If you use an old client that was made when satoshi was still around and tried to get it to synchronise, any blocks mined under EDA are invalid and will be rejected. This means that neither the BSV nor BCH chain can ever sync from the genesis block using satoshi's own code. Go ahead and try it for yourself. The damage can't be undone and your chain is forever tainted with it. It will always be a forkcoin with different consensus rules. Never the original. The only way to sync to the BSV chain is to alter satoshi's code to change the consensus rules. Otherwise satoshi's code will sync to the BTC chain. //EDIT: Looks like hv_ doesn't have a witty answer for this one and instead chose to reply to some other posts with points they feel they can dodge more easily. Oh well. //DOUBLE EDIT: And could people please trim their nested quotes down a bit? Topic is swiftly becoming an arduous scroll-fest. You don't need to include a running history of the last 5 or more posts to reply to the latest one.

That domain should come into the hands of the community if that is handed over to BCH for any sum of money then we really are in trouble.
Do we have any ideas on who might be suitable to take this over?

I hate how inmature people like him make the space look, the guy is trying to make an offert, no need to name call people like that. I know the space is young and all but it just makes us look bad when people act like this, imo.

*Facepalm*"We know, Gavin, we know. If only you could reflect back on that one moment in 2016... you know, with Craig Wright, and the impossible Satoshi block signing? After which Craig was empowered to ramp up his Bitcoin hijack fraud?https://twitter.com/gavinandresen/status/1265426554961657858 " - https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1266054135570366471...

Though I doubt Cobra will just sell the domain to someone like Roger, holy fuck if Roger actually gets to own two high-authority Bitcoin domains.
I don't think Cobra will just hand over the domain to Roger, as we can see the reply on twitter. He will definitely hand over to someone trusted and of course a supporter of BTC. It would be better if some trusted from the bitcointalk forum could have the access of it, may be theymos? theymos controls too many resources, it's better to pick somebody else, even though he's obviously very trustworthy. Couldn't you leave the domain to him, for temporary safe-keeping until a worthy candidate is chosen? Or let theymos help you choose one? Plus do you have a list of names of possible good candidates? Curious. Reread the above in Bold RED, Confused_Fury. Cobra got this, it is amazing how many of you are concerned about his domain transfer , Of course, but you would want it to handed over to some like, Roger Ver? Right? Go to https://www.bitcoin.com, click "Buy Bitcoin". Is that what you want? theymos is also giving, and patient enough to let your trolling ass stay. Bitcoin is highly decentralized BSV, BCH, BTC, BTG, LTC, ... freedom of choice - how you map ONE to the bitcoin.org ? oh - check the only legit White-Paper and lookup & compare the implementations Newbies, this is the kind of disinformation these trolls spread around the internet. Be careful, or you end up being thankful for being scammed to buy a forked shitcoin. - Still Gavin to fit best here imo
He also introduced the fraud Craig Wright as Satoshi. Why?

Ad hominem for what actually? Pointing out facts? BSV is a forked-shitcoin, Gavin introduced Craig Wright to be "Satoshi", Craig Wright turned out to be a liar, and a fraud based on evidences against him. Now, we're being off-topic, who's your candidate to control bitcoin.org? I'm curious.

Unfortunately, that's not how this works. It's seemingly Nakamoto's (current) choice. I can respect that decision. If I'm right, they may surface again, eventually. "I can neither confirm nor deny the identity of Satoshi."Having looked for who was not Satoshi for years, I'm actually surprised how easy it was to find this highly likely candidate. I stumbled upon it actually, everything fits together perfectly. It became a team, if you will, however the originator was seemingly just one individual. Hal was likely more involved than he let on, he may or may not of known the real identity of Nakamoto. Again, "I can neither confirm nor deny the identity of Satoshi."... If your read this, Nakamoto ... and you are in fact 'Satoshi' ... then you know I know ... Re: Who is Satoshi Nakamoto ?

Selling bitcoin.org to Roger Ver or any other people claiming to be Satoshi would be a tragedy, and a complete disaster for Bitcoin.
BCH and BSV have damaged Bitcoin and its image, slowed down its adoption and massively increased the confusion about it.
Giving bitcoin.org to these guys could simply kill Bitcoin.
If you don't want to update bitcoin.org anymore, just leave it dormant: a single page explaining what Bitcoin is, with a link to the original Satoshi PDF paper.
But don't sell this domain. Please, just don't.

I thought there was no official web page for bitcoin but here we are discussing how damaging would it be to sell it to someone else.
It WILL be damaging if sold to the wrong person. Go to bitcoin.com, click "Buy Bitcoin". What is it selling? In an ideal world, releasing the bitcoincore code on bitcoin.org or sdfsdfsdfsd.io shouldn't make a difference for bitcoin... but it does.
It does because bitcoin.org has been a Bitcoin website for many years. Changing it into a fraudulent forked shitcoin website to scam people is not ideal in a non-ideal world.

I wouldn't be surprised if Craig Wright doesn't manage to get his hands on the domain after it gets handed over.
After all, he could secretly reach out to all the major candidates and offer them a large sum to part ways with the domain if they're selected. So long as this agreement is made under an NDA, Wright really doesn't have much to lose.
I'm sure he would keep it 100% under the radar anyway even if he did get it, but maybe this could be part of his myriad tactics to delegitimize or attack Bitcoin.
Then again, Wright has proven himself to be all mouth and no action. He's threatened to reveal critical flaws in Bitcoin and dump the market numerous times now, so I doubt he actually intends to do harm to the network.

It can't be killed, but the community shouldn't take it by doing nothing. Would you like Roger Ver to own bitcoin.org as a political attack-tool, and as a tool to scam newbies? I thought there was no official web page for bitcoin but here we are discussing how damaging would it be to sell it to someone else.
It WILL be damaging if sold to the wrong person. Go to bitcoin.com, click "Buy Bitcoin". What is it selling? In an ideal world, releasing the bitcoincore code on bitcoin.org or sdfsdfsdfsd.io shouldn't make a difference for bitcoin... but it does.
It does because bitcoin.org has been a Bitcoin website for many years. Changing it into a fraudulent forked shitcoin website to scam people is not ideal in a non-ideal world. Of course, bitcoin is going to survive either way, and seems that Cøbra is considering various possibilities, and of course, if Roger has already shown himself to be a scammer and an attack vector on bitcoin, then selling or transferring to him would likely end up having the site used for scamming and attacking bitcoin... which does not seem to be the direction that Cøbra would like to go - even if Roger were to be the highest bidder. Has anyone heard any updates from Cøbra, recently, on this subject matter? Has a short-list developed? Maybe there has been some behind the scenes vetting?

1) Self-Custody is a right. There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted." 2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized. 3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

In an ideal world, releasing the bitcoincore code on bitcoin.org or sdfsdfsdfsd.io shouldn't make a difference for bitcoin... but it does.
We haven't seen it tested so there's no way of knowing. I'd say a fully Ver-ified .org would be misleading and unhelpful but wouldn't have much effect in the great scheme of things. The main thing it would do is enrage newbies and turn them against what he's attempting to push. A compromised bitcoin.org doesn't mean anything when every exchange, broker, website and bit of press deals with the real thing. If your welcome to Roger's world is him sliding his scaly penis up you you're not going to develop warm feelings. Bitcoin.com is a significant property too. BCH is still in the toilet price and penetration wise compared to the past. You can have an initial effect with things like that but it won't sustain if it's empty.

There are a few things that shouldn't happen in the real world, one being to not let R ver have that domain.
