I have been programmed well to think that Bitcoin never bilaterally split to "Core and Cash"? That Bitcoin Cash isn't Bitcoin? You want me to open myself to lies?
Tyranny? "Bitcoin" has split to all different forks. There's a "Bitcoin" for everyone, right?
What you call "our leaders", they are not, are the most competent developers to maintain the protocol. That's why the community/market follows them.
Independent research. About the lies you spread that Nick Szabo introduced Craig Wright as Satoshi? That lukedashjr said Bitcoin bilaterally split?
OK. You enjoy Bitcoin Cash and browning your nose with Roger Ver.
1. pre 2017:
segwit was not bitcoin
cash was not bitcoin
the both are not the original bitcoin. so they bilatrally split. its exactly what a fork is: 2 or more directions .. if there was no split/fork it would be called a knife (cutlery analogy) if you think that segwit is still the original rules then you really need to do some research
if btc in 2017 stuck with the 2016 rules and didnt change. and cash forked off then yes you would have half a point that its not bilateral. but btc also changed when cash did. so it was a 2 way change of the rules. DO YOUR RESEARCH
also it was gmax that called it a bilateral split. he tagged it that name. its his buzzword (good luck trying to continue denying it)
2. and now your just flip flopping. so lets just use the 'dollar' analogy. there are many dollars(canadian, australian,etc) but the main one of concern (usd(btc)) has now become a centralised power house of control. btc has leaders and censorship
the byzantine generals problem was solved by blockchains invention. yet ou wish to deny that its important to stay decentralised and instead have a central leader. you really have not learned the real utility, function, beauty of what bitcoin/blockchain actually does
3. in the very same point as you saying they aint leaders. you then say people follow them.. do you know what the word leader means
leaders.. followers.. its simple english
4. and there you go again with the centralist mindset of if you dont like btc centralisation 'f**k off'. seems you prefer to have leaders and control rather than an open network without leaders.
you cant even have the rational mind that people can have independant thought. instead its if they dont like camp A they must be in camp B
you really have been brown nosing and think brown nosing is the only possibility in crypto.
and again i have no leaders i dont need people giving me pre-existing speaches/ideas. my thoughts are my own. but it is a mega shame you have nothing original. your thoughts are straight out the playbook of the chums you chat to in private.
you even have wasted 2 years of avoiding doing research just to be spoonfed what your thoughts should be. hense you have been programmed.
goodluck with your adoration brigade of core devs, but when they get older, bored, retire or unhealthy to continue .. where will your loyalties be
for you to even think that if i dont like the centralist core devs automatically makes me anti-bitcoin. just in of itself proves you deep down think bitcoin needs the central control of core, you actually believe that core and only core is bitcoin. (facepalm) your own words play against you by your loyalty shining brightly to a central group
have fun
