We can not just come to a conclusion like that. Bitcoin is owned by both theymos and cobra. Cobra cannot make any decision alone and impose it. I think we should not panic and wait to see what happens.

There is a huge difference between BTC and Bcash. BTC is decentralized while Bcash is centralized. The people should know the difference between both. And should think and analyze before investing.

The harsh reality is that there is pretty much nothing you can do when you are being scammed. All you can do is learn from your mistakes and never repeat it again. You cannot do anything after you have been scammed but you can take precautions in order to prevent a scam from happening to you.
There are so many scams happening out there I don't know how people like you get scammed so easily.

People like Ver are no longer relevant to the bitcoin because they have long abandoned the real bitcoin to have their own altcoin. How would you buy bitcoin.org and advertise something other than BTC?

Even though Ver is a traitor you have to appreciate what he did to make bitcoin more mainstream and widely accepted.  Roger Ver was one of the first online vendors to accept bitcoin as a form of payment. 

I'm curious if Ver still holds a large amount of bitcoin just in case Bitcoin Cash ends up failing.

Not so difficult. Doing exactly what bitcoin.com is doing is enough. You keep everything as it is but redirects and promote Btrash wallets and others products. See on bitcoin.com, they teach to people what is Bitcoin, how to use it etc, but they are talking about Btrash, not Bitcoin. People think they are using bitcoin while in fact, they are using Btrash

Bitcoin has a mixture of owners, and cobra only being one of them, is quite impossible for bitcoinorg to be acquired. Newbies are unknown to a lot of details which makes them prone to misleading and taking stupid decisions, so do your researches, before taking any decisions.

Well, having read Cobra's material and tweets, I wouldn't go as far as to say he is shilling bitcoin cash. I think he's open to experimentation, but the general consensus in the industry is that bitcoin is bitcoin and bitcoin cash is and always will be an altcoin. The idea of bitcoin cash supplanting bitcoin or usurping its name is almost impossible by now.

I can't decide on Roger Ver. He's a strange one.

Strange one? He's one of the worst entities in this space. He's trying to break the coin that fed him and made him the person who he is right now.

He and his crew of hired developers are raping Bitcoin's source code where they will soon turn BCash into a cheap Ethereum clone on top of that.

Roger Ver with his website misleads people into thinking they are buying Bitcoin, while they actually buy BCash. It's a shame that he owns such a powerful domain.

If you want to know more about his shady practices just use Google. Smiley

your missing the even bigger picture the bitcoin cash is just distractions. while your eyes are looking at an altcoin. your not reviewing bitcoin core code.

I cannot believe this. Are you now telling us that Bitcoin Cash, for you, is an altcoin?

Quote
there have been core devs that have always wanted altcoins to win. Luke Jr loves him some merge mined coins. Gmax loves him some monero and zcash. pietre wuille loves him some atomic swaps.. they have all been saying bitcoins protocol is broke and unscalable and all want popl to us side srvices and hop people then exit holding altcoins when they settle out of LN. the whole kardashian drama of ver is just the social distraction while the core devs slide in their code into bitcoin core network which does not help true bitcoincoiners. but will make the fiat lovers salivate and orgasm at the prospects it will give them

I have an investment in Decred, does that strongly suggest that I want it to "win"? That is a stupid debate that only morons would believe.

Quote
what i do love is th propaganda that LN is needed to avoid bitcoin turning into server farms..

Can you post where you got that "propaganda".

Quote
but guess what. peoples phone apps to buy coffee at starbucks are not going to run full bitcoin nodes to monitor onchain broadcasts. so LN will be for coffee lovers, using light wallets which dont verify the blackchain. which then connect and trust servers to monitor the onchain broadcasts..

The same as wallet apps and SPV wallets that are in use today?

Plus good to hear that you are for the running of non-mining full nodes.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

The language he's using and the fact that it's so easy to trigger him make him look similar to Roger. Birds of a feather, don't you think?
Roger should start asking if he wants to join the movement Wink

Jokes aside, I think that he would sell if the price was right but since BTC is a goldmine, it's a much better idea to hold everything for now. Not only the coins but also domains.

As we know, Cobra owns bitcoin.org. And as we know, Cobra has been showing signs of supporting Bitcoin Cash, aka BCash, lately, as seen on his tweets.

I took a few minutes to read many tweets made by him and did not notice anything that indicates that he has tendencies to support BCH, The only things I noticed strange is this:

Bitcoin Cash has been integrated into @PurseIO. Very exciting news!



and This https://twitter.com/CobraBitcoinCsh is someone who is making some joke against the real Cobra

It is quite impossible to take over bitcoinorg as cobra is not the only owner of it. However, I think it is quite impossible for us to stop them from having certain level of manipulation over us, especially people who are new to the scene will definitely get mislead by these tweets. People should use their common sense to study a bit more about the situation to differentiate between right and wrong.

He is the main owner of the domain name. A domain name cannot be owned by several persons unless it's a company represented by multiple people, still the domain will be owned by the company entity. You can manage an account behalf your client but can't change the ownership

https://twitter.com/cobrabitcoin/status/940720368121188352

And this was tweeted conveniently during the transaction spam clusterfuck.

It's safe to believe that Ver is siphoning some Vermoney to Cobra. The next step is to of course, buy the bitcoin.org domain from Cobra. Cobra is anonymous and we don't really know his financial situation. It may be too tasty for him to pass a couple millions from Ver with no consequences for his reputation. While theymos is also anonymous, at least we know he is loaded and he isn't as easily bribed.

I predict Ver is going to buy bitcoin.org and redirect it to bitcoin.com or just remove anything that isn't BCash's clients in order to pump his altcoin.

The twitter account of Cobra says he is the co-owner of bitcointalk.org as well alongside bitcoin.org. So if you are assuming that Theymos is loaded and can't be easily bribed, the same assumption goes for Cobra as well, since he co-owns the business with Theymos. I doubt Ver has any intention to buy bitcoin.org just as yet because it ain't gonna change the status and reputation of his altcoin in any way.

Cobra's tweets are not clearly signalling towards the BCH support. It's pretty complicated to understand his intention from a single tweet. But from the below tweets it's safe to understand he is heavily into BCH, probably invested or mined!

https://twitter.com/CobraBitcoin/status/1021956578461839366
https://twitter.com/CobraBitcoin/status/1021173825189351425
https://twitter.com/CobraBitcoin/status/1022195056332230662

Things are taking directions but unsure which way it is!
This stresses me a bit but on the other hand I don't believe contact would throw the community into such a commotion. Everyone is able and their choice to have other coins and have fun with them, him being into Bcash is not an issue if he doesn't sabotage Bitcoin.

I think even if he got it he would have to make it 100% clear he was not misleading anyone else that would open him up to financial ruin.

I can't decide on Roger Ver. He's a strange one.

Cobra is anonymous for you and doesn't mean that no one knows him. Same for theymos, some people know his name.
If someone supporting a coin then why should this mean that he will obligatory throw away any relation with bitcoin?
Bcash chills hatin' BTC? That's their problem, for us it is a free money and i would like to see its price rising Wink

Bicoin.org just a websites and it’s little bit centralized but bitcoin is totally decentralized. So there still have some difference between them.
