'Bitcoin Jesus' is 'really, really concerned' about the future of the digital currency
Nicknamed "Bitcoin Jesus," Ver was an early proponent of bitcoin and bought $25,000 worth in 2011 that is now worth $425 million. However, in the debate over how to improve bitcoin's transaction speeds and costs this summer, Ver sided with a minority of developers behind an offshoot called "bitcoin cash."

"The fact of the matter is, the utility of bitcoin has been damaged," Ver said. "If you feel like you missed out on bitcoin back in 2011, take a look at bitcoin cash, give it a use. I think you'll be really, really impressed with the usefulness."

Thanks for copy-pasting this article from somewhere,OP.
That fact that Roger Ver is an early adopter doesn`t make him "bitcoin Jesus".He didn`t invent bitcoin or the blockchain.He only wants more and more money and doesn`t care about bitcoin core improvement and mass adoption.The utility of btc has been damaged because of the greedy speculant traders pumping the price and people like him.

I bet it's just a stupid nickname some small group of people branded him. He was useful for Bitcoin and its growth for a time. He's become the opposite of thatt, of course, being one of the masterminds behind the recent Bitcoin Cash attack, and pulling stupid stunts like moving his Bitcoins to an exchange.

I concede that Bitcoin Cash can handle more transactions right now, but do they even have a road map? They can't just keep on increasing the block size. At least we have Lightning Network on the horizon. I also can't help but wonder how many people lost money on the most recent pump and dump. I'm betting Roger Ver got a huge chunk.

I was really carried away by the title but what I see here is Ver trying to continue his dominance in the crypto world because he was lucky to have been able to buy bitcoin at the time it was fresh so he thought he should advise same to bitcoin cash which I am sure he would have own as much as possible even more than the one he bought during the time of bitcoin. Anyways, anyone who is ready to risk it, should just go ahead.

Roger Ver is the opposite of Bitcoin's Jesus.
Roger Ver = anti-christ of Bitcoin

Do your research. He's 100% bent on taking bitcoin down via spam attacks and forks and only supports his baby altcoin "Bitcoin Cash" which he is trying to save from centralized points of failure aka store of value failure.

I don't think that if the transaction speed is low we do need to shift the whole focus on another cryptocurrency well the core developers can easily change it when its needed.
Also I never heard of this nick name till now, also all the people siding with the developers and asking others to go and invest in digital cryptocurrencies they have already used the bitcoins now they wanna earn more though some other currency thus think of it as an advertisement that he is doing nothing else.
I don't think he needs to concern himself with the future of bitcoins and try to establish that the real bitcoin is bitcoin cash just like what segwit2x attempted to do and we all know what happened.
