Mike's capitulation will be the decisive wake up call that the community needed to save the Bitcoin project.
It was needed to finally fork the totalitarian tyrants and their followers out of the project. Mike will make history of being the savior of Bitcoin.

One thing is for sure.

Mike needs to get off the cross already.

Whenever I read some one is saying that Bitcoin is "dead", then it just shows that these people have no idea what they are talking about. Let the dude leave and work on shitty altcoin projects. The more people say Bitcoin is going to fail, the more I keep believing in its future. Something that grows to unseen levels has a lot enemies, and it shows....

The original bitcoin has failed, whatever bitcoin is becoming is not what it was envisioned by its creator, the original project Mike worked on is no longer.

Satoshi left and other people took over the project. It's not a surprise that it's not going in the exact direction that Satoshi had in mind. You have to deal with different people and all these people may disagree with each other on several important subjects, take the blocksize drama as example. I am happy to see where Bitcoin is standing right now, all these shills will attempt to disrupt things with their fud, but they will always lose.

Then these people should make their own altcoin, not hijack bitcoin's development and turn bitcoin into their own altcoin.

It's reasonable that all of us who bought into bitcoin because of its original vision to feel betrayed when seeing what it is being turned into, much more for someone like Mike who gave 5 years of his life to this project.

Wasn't Mike Hearn the one accused of wanting to turn bitcoin into his own altcoin in the first place?
Well I mean, anyway, it's not as easy as telling them to fuck off and go create their own altcoin: everyone knows that only bitcoin is really viable. Who'd want to create an altcoin that nobody's ever going to trust no matter how good it is in the first place if you're aware of that.

Well, his story + Cryptsy bankrupt = - 50 usd per 1 btc in few hours

many people are losing a lot of money already and they will lose more if they won't sell.

That does not mean shit! If you heard what shorting means you will get that many people make ton of money while the price drops!

Can somebody explain me how block <1MB can do all the transactions in the future?

Don't like XT or other, but <1MB just to small for HUGE transactions

It's ironic MH is trying to implement RBF on bitcoin (Reverse By FUD).

It's also ironic the community blacklisted XT. (Not all implementations are fungible).

ESPN should get MH on tape for 30 minutes and package it with LeBron James's "The Decision" - 'I'm taking my talents and going to R3'

Next time MH and Maxwell play golf, it'll be play it down and no gimmes or mulligans. Is Maxwell going to get a reporter to pull MH under the bus with him, or is he too mature for that?

This is the strongest BUY signal I've witnessed since I'm into Bitcoin (end of 2012).

It would be SO good for crypto if mike hearn leaves the space for good to be focused on private databases for banks and whatnot.

That medium post really made me happy - thanks Mike, now keep your word and GTFO.

Mikey's Goodbye Cruel Bitcoin story made me as happy as when XT was launched, only to be immediately nuked by DDOS. Cool

Between this and the cryptsy news lies the answere to the price drop. I stopped listening to Hearn a while ago. XT was a joke and an attempt at BTC take over IMO. P don't let the door hit you on the way out....

BTC is already took over by few exchangers and mining companies(China). So, it;s the same

If you have BTC, sell it now and wait for better times.

Well said, although i think Bitcoin Core could definitely make use of some capable programmers and community managers now.

Andreas tweeted out "I just found out that bitcoin failed. Oh well, I'll figure out something else to do." lol

I think any price drop was most likely other reasons and a few groups just try to get a buy back spot a little lower.

This isn't the first time we come close to very low $400. It's pure manipulation like always. Those who haven't bought yet because they were waiting for the price to come down a little more should do it now. Otherwise they will end up seeing the price go up while they haven't bought anything. Cheesy

Farewell to Mike Hearn, who says he's leaving Bitcoin. Try not to let your ego hit you on the way out.
