short version : http://www.coindesk.com/history-ripple-stellar-tell-all-report/

you will see who are behind BTC and other Altcons who owns the big exchanges. You will say, "where are the big exchanges mentioned?". Look who are their investors ! Ripple, Stellar, Coinbase, Btc-China, Bitstamp ,Kraken = same investors

they have the same root, a gang. everything is about money and not how others are dreaming about decentralization and other shits

[neurotypical]

Of course everything is about money. Exchanger runners don't give a fuck, they are there to make profit.

agree with you. then let's do not say "Bitcoin community is something else". BTC community is about pure profit/quick money and all the other shits like "decentralization, freedom, no gov rules" are only for fools just to put more money into system

I would disagree.
BTC was started by people with an interest in economics and cryptography... humanitarians with very egalitarian ideals. Satoshi brought forward his work in direct reaction to the financial crisis of 2008. Very quickly the libertarians and anarch-capatalists became interested, and the early promotion of the blockchain began. As the price of BTC rose, the money guys became very interested.

Roger Ver talks about this cycle. It is necessary, because the money guys are the ones who are going to work with the big players, the banks and the legislators, to bring BTC to its ultimate legitimacy. After that we will see ubiquitous BTC usage and acceptance.

Don't fret. It's coming...

In order to succeed they need the exchangers and vice versa. I'm not sure what you are trying to imply as it sounds like everyone wants bitcoin dead and it's a whole group of people working towards the common objective. Anyway, yeah, it's the money that is the main motivator but behind it, it's still the interest and passion into crypto that makes all these possible.
