I would like to thank Mike Hearn. Without his comments, the price would not consolidate for such long time.

Mike Hearn did affect the market a lot, but I believe it will recover just fine in a little time.
Sad to know that it dropped so much in only a day.

I don't feel he has to make an apology. He shared his vision towards bitcoin and left.
End of story. Know bitcoin and it's community and he can go their own seperate ways.

No one needs to do anything. "Caveat emptor"

You bought Bitcoin knows the risks and volatility, and you pay the price both ways either in your favor or not.
New people buying Bitcoin are driven mainly by greed and possible gains that the Bitcoin may achieve.
They forget that the volatility is a two-sided blade that may hurt you, if you are on the wrong side at the wrong time.

well he does need to apology, he wanted to create panic so price would fall and he could buy bitcoins for small price, lots of people that trusted bitcoin had to sell it because price dropped really low and really fast so they thought that bitcoin will die
well, we cant say that he wanted to create panic as he seems to have told his own opinion and he did not tell anyone to avoid it

i dont think he needs to apologize but it would definitely be a good thing as people would be more confident about buying more btc

Well in fact, best thing to do was to sell at that moment and buy some dollars lower  Grin. Probably much of the selling was due to that: people who knew panic will come and chosed to sell and rebuy at a lower price.

No he doesn't.

He's not responsible for ignorant, naive people who believe everything they hear and sell quickly.

Let me ask you: if you Walmart, Target, Amazon and Microsoft all said Bitcoin was dangerous and to stop buying, causing people to lose money, should they apologize? No. Whether they were doing that to manipulate the economy doesn't matter. What matters is that you fell for his tricks and deception and sold when you shouldn't have. Accept it and move on.

Bear in mind that when you own a share, the price will go up or down. Doesn't matter what the price is now you can always wait for it to go up again. Remember, you have not lost anything unless you have sold. If you sell, then you've lost. If you wait for the price to go up, sell and make a profit, you still won.

Thanks to this guy Mike Hearn the price went down $60 today. Alot of people have lost a lot of money and it's all because of this guy.

In order to get back our money we need to find this guy and make him take back all the bullshit and lies he wrote in his blog. He will be making a full public media apology for his actions and a confession that he is a troll and FUD master.

So if you know Mike Hearn, his address or any information about him please post it. We need to contact him personally and let him know he is responsible for people losing their hard earned money. And we need to ask him what he is going to do about it.

he really needs to, because he was so dumb talking all that crap, people really lost a lot of their money, he created a huge panic wave probably just to buy bitcoins cheap for himself, but atleast 1 good thing is that people won't trust him and what he says anymore

I doubt that he have been paid to say that line in order to make them allow to buy more bitcoin.

One who has been much attached to particular thing won't give statements for money. He was there from the early days as well during most hard times of bitcoins. This finds to be his statement which has been made a false statement by the growing bitcoin technology.

If one guy making a negative comment drops the price that much maybe we should be concerned about the longivity of bitcoin.

However, IMO its not so much what he said as just a shift in opinion that the devs can't agree on anything

He's not going to apologise and this is probably secretly what he wanted.

I dont think there is much of a "secret" about it. Its not a conspiracy or anything, its just really hard to assume that he had no idea about short/midterm consequences of his actions. Unless he is really just a butthurt manchild who performed a ragequit without much of a backthought.

Mike Hearn's blog post is the absolute perfect example of a raging narcissist throwing a fit. His post will go down in time as one of the stupidest acts made by someone with his intelligence and influence. We will be reading and laughing about him for decades to come.

Was it really because of him though. I have done some thinking and I don't think it is completely his fault. Other people have also said this.

The media here is writing about him as being one of the most important persons in Bitcoin. So it can be seen as being partly his fault. I say partly because people with common sense wouldn't value his word since he is working on getting rid of Bitcoin with his alternative project. All he say is done to harm Bitcoin.

How is centralizing nodes by raising the blocksize a good way to solve the situation? the blockstream guys are the ones trying to solve the scalable problem without fucking up decentralization in process. Get a grip.

He's not going to apologise and this is probably secretly what he wanted. Just look at what little it took for his words to have a drastic impact on bitcoins price. If it can fall by $100 or whatever just by someone saying its doomed (which was fud) then it makes me a little concerned for the future of btc What happens if a few prominent people say its dead? Are we going to see a fall by hundreds of dollars based on that? Someone saying something bad about bitcoin shouldn't have such an effect.

He is not just someone. After reading this blog he wanted to make a statement, which he clearly did.
Question is will something happen now?

I'll buy back in at $130 for the last bounce to $250.


is this sarcasm or do you actually think were slipping to $130 anytime soon?

some one try to spread panic... with 130 $ from 450 $ (and not 250$) we will see the crash of the price!

No need for that.
Clever ones aren't that ignorant.

And as long as Bitcoin is in the mainstream media, everyone, alongwith newbies are gonna start learning about it and for that they surely need to buy a significant amount of Bitcoins.

After Mike left the community very few of them (foolish ones) actually followed his path and were trying to influence their peers during the process.
But the major fact for it's price to go down is due to the expenditure on year-ending holidays, as well as Cryptsy Craptsy's downfall.

Hope it will diffuse soon. Wink

He will never be part of Core again, and Core is all that matters as we have seen with XT, no body ran nodes for that piece of shit, and nobody will run nodes for Bitcoin Classic and other alt wannabes. They are fighting a losing battle.

I will be running a Classic node, and as of right now, at least 50% of the miners and others like Coinbase intend to as well.



Because you are clueless, no disrespect. Anyone with a brain would never give trust to some developers that have never demonstrated shit and have clear connections to banks/CIA and an underlying agenda vs supporting developers that have delivered fantastic and creative stuff like seg wit or CT amongst a million other entries that are for the betterment of the experience and to decentralize nodes and keep it more anonymous. Let's remember Mike Hearn only had 3 entries in github for Core lol. Im going to quote this fantastic reddit post that tells it like it is

Mike Hearn was responsible for the flash crash this past August with the hard intro of XT, so this makes twice he has moved the market. He should never be allowed near bitcoin again as he has proven himself arrogant and reckless. The market recovered from August and will recover from this also just give it some time.

He will never be part of Core again, and Core is all that matters as we have seen with XT, no body ran nodes for that piece of shit, and nobody will run nodes for Bitcoin Classic and other alt wannabes. They are fighting a losing battle.

XT was utter BS, but Bitcoin Classic is the way to go imo. Why would anyone stick to core with 1MB block sizes as if it was 2010? It doesn't allow Bitcoin to scale and will create absurd fees for all users the more BTC is adopted. Bitcoin Classic is simply another hard fork in the evolultion of Bitcoin. If you want to be a hardcore purist, the current version of Bitcoin isn't Bitcoin either, it's a fork! BTC has been forked several times to adapt to requirements of usability and growth.

Because we don't need 2MB when segwit is around the corner and trusting some random devs vs time tested devs is stupid. If you don't understand how risk/reward segwit is better than a hard fork for a 1MB increase you got some reading to do.

Are you actually brave enough to transfer coins with your trendy _Classic thingy, or is it just a useless vanity node?


I hope that they get 75% miner support right away so that I can watch their miners saying, "Oh shit, we just mined a ton of worthless altcoins!".

Cryptsy event is completely irrelevant.  The amount of coins stolen is so incredibly small.

do not understimate the panic selling that few coins can create, that the real damage not the amount of coins

the bad news itself, can start a huge downtrend in not time, like it happened already

also what Mike is saying, is not even that true, there are proposal for the issue he is describing, he just mad because none was accepting his altcoin...

+1

The bad news will all fade away.  Making it to NY times pretty much makes the 'news' fully realized, i.e. those who wanted to sell, sold.  There might be more selling as it snowballs to low 300s (a big maybe), but then we'll have an explosive bounce.  Just watch.

We should see an investigation into it. Mike Hearn can be arrested by SEC for market manipulation.

I believe only if he is in United States which I don't believe he is or if he used a United States exchange. Or if whatever country he is in has similar laws.

I'm unable to tell if this is sarcasm?

I've seen a lot of "He was morally wrong to do X, Y, Z" or "he hasn't contributed as much as blah blah blah" from people who have done nothing.

I have yet to see any type of logical correction to his article.  Not once.  Not from Theymos, not from forum mods, not from small block trolls.  Only character assessments.  Which speaks volumes to me - Mike attacked personalities less and ideas more than his counterparts are doing.

You do realize they have commitments from 50% of the miners / pools at this point and are in negotiations with another 23%?  Quite frankly with as much class as the 1mb 4 ever crowd has shown I think they should do a 51% fork.  Let the group who's been pulling all this shit (DDOS, censoriship that would make North Korea proud, etc) feel the pain of picking the wrong side.

Nobody lost money because of this guy.

You only lost money if you panicked and sold and it then quickly goes back up, and then that is your fault, not his fault.

If it goes down and stays down (doubtful) then it was over-valued before his statement and you only lost money if you bought when it was over-valued.

-=-

However what may happen is Mike Hearn causes the perceived value to be under-valued which gives some people the opportunity to make money by buying while it is artificially low.

Such BS. If Mike was so wrong and a hindrance to the project... the market would have rallied with the news he was quitting Bitcoin for good.

The real reason for the drop is that we very well may be firing Blockstream Core as the development team for Bitcoin this spring. That means uncertainty, lots of it, markets hate uncertainty. Already, half of the hashrate has signed on to the direction of Bitcoin Classic, and it isn't even released yet. Comparing it to XT is a display of ignorance.

The good news, once the fork goes off without a hitch, 1MB4EVA crowd rage dumps, we can rally HARD... and have the extra capacity to do it.  Smiley

We need to confront this guy and make sure he can never have anything to do with bitcoin again.

+1! Confront him, drop our pants, and touch his butt.
And also make him touch our butts.
This is totally punitive ofc, no homo.

We have to confront him. It will give people more confidence in bitcoin.

You didn't lose money if you still hold bitcoin. You still have the same amount as before..

This drama just shows how people blindly trust some people and their opinions. This will be a good lesson for bitcoiners..

Mike Hearn was responsible for the flash crash this past August with the hard intro of XT, so this makes twice he has moved the market. He should never be allowed near bitcoin again as he has proven himself arrogant and reckless. The market recovered from August and will recover from this also just give it some time.

Agree with all your words.But there is one problem!Bitcoin is open source!And whenever this guy wants to be part of Bitcoin again, we can't do nothing.The only thing we could do is to reject every future work he would do as a whole community.But also this will never happen.There are more than enough naive followers who really are 100% backing him up for every word he has said. That's is sad and crazy.


I agree with this 100%. We need to confront this guy and make sure he can never have anything to do with bitcoin again.

Thanks to this guy Mike Hearn the price went down $60 today. Alot of people have lost a lot of money and it's all because of this guy.

In order to get back our money we need to find this guy and make him take back all the bullshit and lies he wrote in his blog. That is the way we can get the price to finally move up.

So if you know Mike Hearn, his address or any information about him please post it. We need to contact him personally and let him know he is responsible for people losing their hard earned money. And we need to ask him what he is going to do about it.

Troll on trollmaster.
You're doing a fabulous job.
