    Roger Ver mattered for Bitcoin adoption over a decade ago. He hasn’t mattered since the bcash scam.

        Do you remember saying “the market will decide” in the years before the split? This conversation makes me nostalgic.

          The market decision is currently based on censorship and propaganda. Don’t be a lemming be a market maker.

            It’s a good thing that these adversaries willing to lose infinity money to trick you aren’t paying your miners to do anything bad.

              The miners are just waiting for BCH to recover and they will jump over to it ASAP. The future of BTC is shaky because it will require crazy price increases to be sustainable due to the sabotaging of the tech rendering it useless as a currency. BCH can process millions of transactions per day which will sustain miners in the long term.

                What evidence would make you think BCH has failed and you might be wrong about something? Fewer than [some number] on-chain transactions per year?

                  As long as BCH upholds the original design of Bitcoin, which is peer to peer decentralized e-cash then it has not failed. BTC has already failed in that purpose. When will you admit this?

                    Still works fine on my machine, and it’s gotten a lot more popular, so saying that it’s failed sounds pretty outlandish at this point.

                    Since I’m arguing that market evidence is useful, I would admit BTC has failed once BCH/BTC >> 1 for a few months.
