No TBF should not be renamed the realcoin foundation as it still does support bitcoin as opposed to realcoin. IMO TBF should be dismembered as it is lacking transparency and is a overall risk to bitcoin as there are a lot of bad actors at TBF.

I read elsewhere, a Brock Pierce sockpuppet/co-investor/employee is demanding Brock likes chaos and hence used to invest against his own business. Hence he is investing in RealCoin !!!

I wonder, from when, Bitcoin became Brock's business ? Cheesy

If it matters, RealCoin/BrockCoin can never truly compete with BTC, since the value of the Dollar will plummet due to massive inflation.
Phew! Well, then, there is nothing to worry about, is there?


If you really want something to worry about, several ideas are available.
However, there is also plenty of good news to focus on.  Smiley

Sorry for being the idiot here, but I don't get it. You aren't referring to the "RealCoin" altcoin are you? Is this some pun I'm not getting? I understand that the foundation has not been transparent and a lot of well-respected members of dropped, but I don't get this thread. :/

The Bitcoin Foundation board member Brock Pierce is rolling out RealCoin... an Alt coin. What can be worse for The Bitcoin Foundation to question its credibility ? Its' own board members dont have trust in Bitcoin !!!
This is just ridiculous, most alt coins are made so their founders can get rich by mining early and then promoting the coin to others. So a member of the board is trying to profit off of an alt coin......SMH

Brock Pierce in a conflict of interest.
Then he should be thrown out of TBF and problem solved.
I'm pretty sure there will be a lot of hate for RealCoin.

But, in reality, the reverse has taken place. Andreas Antonopoulos is now out of the foundation !!!

I can no longer have even the smallest association with the Bitcoin Foundation, because of the complete lack of transparency

Andreas leaving the foundation is great news. Let their crooked club fade into oblivion.

It is high time that other foundation members stand up and kick out Brock Pierce or anyone who is trying to push their Alt using Bitcoin platform.
What do the bylaws say about "impeachment" of the director?  I read them some time ago and they struck me as exceedingly un-demoncratic.  The election of Brock Pierce for instance was decided by the board not the memers as a whole, AFAIK.

Now I wonder whether core dev will be forced to include realcoin into bitcoin core client. It is high time that other foundation members stand up and kick out Brock Pierce or anyone who is trying to push their Alt using Bitcoin platform. Are u listening Lee/Gavin ?

Pierce did not wait long to stir up even more controversy.  I just read an article saying that Andreas was distancing himself from the foundation.   Don't think it's good at all for the foundation to be kind of viewed as "the face of bitcoin"  (at least to inexperienced people)

Yep that is the second discussed thread these threads are concurrent
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7759615

Regarding the accusation they are the realcoin foundation, not sure don't have enough info on that myself but it sounds like a direct conflict of interest to be shilling an altcoin alternative while using the foundation as a mechanism to do so.

Yeah I have a real problem with this as well. There is a lot more they could do to support bit coin. Promoting another coin is a waste of time, especially when they are all ready doing very little to support bit coin other than making occasional statements and collecting donations for the right to vote on issues.
