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)

Readers may be confussing Pierce's new "RealCoin" with a previously launched altcoin that is already defunct, it seems.
Announcement of Pierce's RealCoin on the Wall Street Journal, 2014-07-08 (yesterday)

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 !!!
Not only that - RealCoin itself is "backed" by the USD!!!!
Talk about a snowball of bad ideas!!

This is news to me.
It will probably be a great pump and dump coin. Will take off massively with all that financial backing...before a long, steady decline into nothing.
The funny thing is that, getting buyers will be easy for Brock and his associates, but finding buyers for the first time buyers will be difficult. So Brock and his associates will definitely make money, but will anyone else ?

RealCoin could be SolidCoin's sibling coin.
