Killing Lightning Network with a 51% Ignore attack

The situation is quite interesting and we'll see what happens as far as it will turn out in court to consider the claim because bitcoin is not recognized as a currency in many countries.

What happen is the ones crying lawsuit could not raise enough money to pay a lawyer and they gave up before May 4th,2018.

There is no lawsuit.

Roger Ver is a well-known influencer of BTC and BCH. I am surprised to see him fool people. 500+ people are kind of scammed by him. But may be there is different side to the story. May be it wasn't intentional. I don't know.

It is very necessary to be done so that there are not many further casualties, and it is very dangerous if it takes place by using the deception.

Truly deserves from receiving that lawsuit but im afraid if the lawyear wont do anything about this as roger ver has billions of dollars of cryptocurrency assets.He will always find his way to fool people,which is why we shouldnt be trusting this IDIOT,so that he wont have anything left but those investors who got fooled by these people.Roger has full of shitty things in life and shouldnt be trusted.

Yeah Bitcoin itself can in no way be considered an altcoin, from any perspective. It is the main chain originating from the genesis block. Bitcoin Cash is forked off of the main chain and is running its own version of the blockchain now. Bitcoin cash is the altcoin, Bitcoin is still the original chain with the original consensus rules.

While I can't say Ver getting hit with a lawsuit is a good thing, I do think it could be the only way of showing him it's not cool trying to hijack Bitcoins brand.

core does not use the original consensus rules
try using the original client satoshi-qt-0.1 on bitcoin core network

LEARN definition of FORKS

both core and cash are not the original satoshi invention. they both forked off

“Bitcoin cash is an alt-coin that has its fans just like many alt-coins. I don't think anyone who uses bitcoin's name and applies it to an alt-coin like bitcoin cash does is adhering to acceptable business practices. In other words, bitcoin's brand is being stolen by a competitor that calls itself bitcoin cash and this is outright fraud in my opinion, just like it's fraudulent to use Coca-Cola and Nike's name to sell soft drinks or shoes,” said Max Keiser

Even Linux distributions forks have their own names.

bitcoin is also an altcoin it depends on the perspective. and weather the media system still supports it, which i doubt it will, since the cryptomedia is completely different then the fiat media, there is no banking system that sustainably supports then,

everything is different now.

"Bitcoin is also an altcoin"? Lol I want to smoke what you're smoking. Bitcoin is not an altcoin, Everything other than that is.

core is actually a fork. just like cash
its not like clams where a script kiddie just made a separate ntwork

the BILATERAL SPLIT event that split core from cash seen to that

its not a
_________________core
   \_________cash

or a
   _________core
_______/_________cash

but a
   __________core
______/
   \__________cash

it was a bilateral split not a unilateral split..

core DO NOT OWN brand bitcoin............ no one does!!!

Roger should give up, He can't keep fooling people, Bcash will crash hard.

I think that will not end up with bad for roger ver, but seeing the community together against such one of the people in the crypto really makes me happy. But bcash is good for them, let them buy bcash.

I hope he loses the case. While puting BCH that he's promoting at the top is fine, but changing the name Bitcoin into Bitcoin core is not. Especially when combined with the site Bitcoin.com. A typical user will visiting bitcoin.com and looking for Bitcoin won't be able to find it. He'll find Bitcoin Core that sounds just like another forked coin. It's misleading however you look at it.

no team own bitcoin..

neither side
the truth is it actually is
bitcoin core
bitcoin cash

much like dollar is open to all countries
american dollar
canadian dollar
australian dollar

if the currency you use commonly is in your pocket then you can use it in common conversation as an abreviation
.. so yes
if you are australian you can say 'i have a dollar in my pocket, but i dont have any U.S dollars'
if you are australian you can say 'i have a dollar in my pocket, but i dont have any canadian dollars'

if you are american you can say 'i have a dollar in my pocket, but i dont have any Australian dollars'
if you are american you can say 'i have a dollar in my pocket, but i dont have any canadian dollars'

that is why.. core need to accept that bitcoin is trademarked by no one and accept that they too will be called bitcoin core by outsiders

that is why.. cash need to accept that bitcoin is trademarked by no one and accept that they too will be called bitcoin cash by outsiders

but those who use core, will in common conversation but without staking claim of trademark will say they have bitcoin in thier wallet
but those who use cash, will in common conversation but without staking claim of trademark will say they have bitcoin in thier wallet

Over 800 individuals have come together to create a community against Bitcoin.com and its CEO Roger Ver. A legal action has been pursued by the “Bitcoin.com lawsuit/victims” Telegram group for misleading the users into buying BCH instead of BTC.

whats the issue, he has freedom to interpret things as he sees them they are correct, if he wants he can write down a reasonable answer for that as he also publicly says bitcoincash is the real bitcoin, in the united states there is something called: freedom of oppinion.

i doubt this lawsuit will be successful if they dont bribe the judge,

the winner will be the party that bribes the judge the best.

making the judge becomming the ultimate winner.

the question is how will he behave after he has sold his premine?

will he then say to all Bitcoin Gold is the real bitcoin and bitcoin cash is bitcoin core2? Roll Eyes

I guess part of the reasons why bitcoin needs some sort of recognition or regulation is to make stronger cases against frauds. Whatever happens in this will set a precedence. Hopefully something positive comes out of it.
900 members now in the group. They're growing fast.

i can see the defense as:
(use of 'dollar' for analogy)

dollar is owned by no one.
america can use it
canada can use it
australia can use it

if america want to make a lawsuit about how people have been told that australia has the dollar, then i would laugh
if a european paid 0.62 for a dollar and handed a australian dollar. then there is no fraud (0.62 is AUS price)
if a european paid 0.82 for a dollar and handed a australian dollar. then there is fraud (0.62 is AUS price)

its just america(core) trying to grab the brand. so that brand becomes tradmarked, and no longer un-owned.

the "victims" would have a case if they paid $8000 for something worth only $800 at the time.
but if they paid $800 for 'a bitcoin' then that is not deceipt or fraud.

i wonder how many people actually paid >$7000 this month for 1 bitcoin cash.

EG
person: i want an apple..
merchant: ok thats 50 cents.. hands person a fruit
pereson: no i wanted the phone. im gonna sue you
merchant: laughs, goodluck

Vs
person: i want an apple..
merchant: ok thats $500.. hands person a fruit
pereson: no i wanted the phone. im gonna sue you
merchant: oh crap

Honestly I am not very positive on this lawsuit to come positive for non-Rodger supporters. As I am not sure how it will be looked at as this is the talk about an virtual / digital currency. Anyway people can be mislead simply from the name of Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin.

The domain name is Bitcoin.com and he promotes BCH on his site by assuming that BCH is the Real Bitcoin
Whatever the reason I agree that it is misleading , I hate this dispute , until how long the dispute about the Real Bitcoin will end

Most popularly known as bitcoin Jesus, Roger Ver, was never expected to be caught in such kind of a scam.

One user wrote in the Telegram group that it’s like advertising you’re selling gold and then giving customers a piece of coal instead, while also referencing stories of people who mistakingly sent BTC to a BCH address and vice versa. Earlier this week, Bitcoin.com underwent changes to present Bitcoin Cash as Bitcoin. Most notably the block explorer, which changed from Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to Bitcoin Core (BTC) and Bitcoin (BCH). (Source: http://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-lawsuit-bitcoin-com-ceo-roger-ver/ )

Such things tend to disappoint the bitcoin community and obviously arouse the controversial responses from all around. Looking at the reactions of the community members, it seems that this lawsuit will soon brew up against Roger Ver, and nothing can stop the aggression of the people.
