Right now it seems that a lot of members favor Mr. Mark K., a longterm bitcoin enthusiast out of french. Let´s hope he wins!

Quote
The grooming, according to the lawsuit, started almost on day one. Egan remembers being pulled aside by Collins-Rector, Pierce, and Shackley for hourlong one-on-one lectures about how they had gaydar and they knew that Egan really was gay (he says he is not). He remembers the ban on the wearing of clothes in the pool or hot-tub areas. And he remembers being locked inside a gun closet for resisting Collins-Rector’s advances. He also remembers the drugs—Valium, Vicodin, Xanax, Percocet, ecstasy, roofies. In the years to come, several other young men would come forward to talk about inappropriate behavior by the executives of DEN. There was a boy named Daniel who, according to a 2007 account of DEN’s rise and fall in Radar, wrote a suicide note that his brother intercepted before he could act on it: “I can’t go on. I let them use me as a sex tool. I let those assholes do all those terrible things to me. Good-bye.” There are several boys, including Egan, who would recall Collins-­Rector aiming a gun at them and threatening to pull the trigger. And there was the boy who, in 2000, filed a lawsuit in New Jersey claiming Collins-­Rector repeatedly sexually abused him from 1993 to 1996. Collins-Rector denied those allegations but then settled the suit shortly before leaving the company.

Quote
The three boys filed a civil lawsuit in 2000 for sexual abuse against Collins-Rector, Shackley, and Pierce.

Yea...No, I don't want to meet known pedophilia ring leaders.

And take off that signature on the side there, it's embarassing to represent a scum foundation that openly allows people of this nature.   Undecided

Well I also am a citizen of a country that openly allowed George Bush. I did not vote for the people you have mentioned, but there was an election and they won. Should the foundation have canceled the election because they didn't like the outcome? Should only people approved by you be allowed to run?

Are you seriously suggesting RodeoX that the Bitcoin foundation election process is open and transparent when you have to pay to vote for these people? The bitcoin foundation has and always will be a joke.

The bitcoin foundation has and always will be a joke, the peadophilia accusations not just from random people but from people who have specific stories is just making things worse.
I'm saying if you think that crap is what the foundation is all about then you don't know what they are doing. I work with the serious and smart business people who are members. You may not know their names because there is nothing salacious about them, but they are the people who make things happen.
The way I operate is to engage and change things I don't like. That includes things within the foundation. I don't complain like a victim, I don't point fingers, I throw punches. Sure I did have to pay to join, but where do you think money comes from? I also pay to join the NRA. I don't agree with much of the NRA's platform either, but they are the player if you want in on the influence game.

The bottom line for me is that a failure to influence public and private policy is a loss for the bitcoin community and economy. That is why I have donated my time and BTC to the foundation. It is not what I would have designed, but better than doing nothing and just hoping everything will somehow be ok.

Cody Wilson is trying for it, but yeah, the thing is it's their own special little club and they're just going to keep finding ways to make sure they're in power, just like real politics!

It is not what I would have designed, but better than doing nothing and just hoping everything will somehow be ok.

It's one thing if one member of the whole foundation is crooked, but it's not just one and not just random members, but actual executive board members.  They may not be there now, but were executive board members as of very recently (2014).  Now I know they're trying to damage control now, but historically the Bitcoin Foundation had scum city at the very top man....

-Mark Karpeles, founding member of the Bitcoin Foundation.  Mt. Gox...need I say more
-Charlie Shrem, also founding member of the Bitcoin Foundation.  BitInstant founder and Money launderer.  Funded Silk Road
-Brock Pierce, I already mentioned his profile with diddling and sexual abusing underage boys...Nuff Said.

1 bad apple or actor, sure, it happens.

3 and you got a goddam Pandemic, my friend.  Scum from the top down...and it's not debatable.
