A closer look at the man known as Roger Ver

in #bitcoin7 years ago

This is one you won't want to miss, unless you like Roger Ver.

I tried to stay away from the Bitcoin vs Bitoin Cash debate in this video, and instead focused on Ver.

Check out my YouTube channel here.

I still have respect for @rogerkver, we have all made mistakes...regardless of his past he was one of the original pioneers of the Bitcoin community. He did a lot in terms of educating people all over the world and speaking about BTC when no one even cared. For that he is still a legend in my book. Its too bad to see what is going on with the current war between Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin and all the confusion. Some think Ver is trying to cause confusion and manipulate things, I am not too sure about that. I believe he is trying to do what he believes is the right thing by supporting Bitcoin Cash since its "closer" to what is described in satoshi's white paper. With that said I dont think that matters. Satoshi does not own Bitcoin, he released it into the wild and disappeared for a reason. This entire ecosystem growing around us is backed by BTC and in my view is a "digital gold" like asset. Its up for the markets and other forces to decide now what happens with BTC. To be honest I believe Steem is by far a better form of cash for day to day use than any other chain right now.

Thank you for speaking out about about this @thejohalfiles. @dougpolkcrypto I think you are completely wrong here.

he is trying to hide what roger ver has gotten correct by hiding it behind his errors- the sad but true part is that we are all on the same side and want to see crypto success besides btc holders got cash for free- whats the issue anyway ? you can participate in both ecosystems and attempt to fix issues and thats a win win .

p.s. spooning leads to FORKING please use condiments

Completely agree with you @thinktankllc. Why doesn't Doug do a video exposing the censorship on r/Bitcoin for example? Or about the company Blockstream?

well said @thejohalfiles, learnt much about this issue from your detailed comment.Thanks for your worthy views.

Yes i do agree with @thejohalfiles that in war between Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin one should not pay much attention. It is a fact that BTC is father coin as per it's prominence around the real world but the point is, stardom always has a decline. So, it is understood that BTC will fall down may be in 2019 but until then BTC would have paved it's way and people will remember it by the worth it attained :)

After reading many blogs on this very topic i can move myself towards the propaganda by Bankers to just degrade the digital currencies because i have read many news that BTC is banned in many places around the globe.

The best thing is going to happen is Steem <3 as @stephenkendal wrote an article in recent past in which he mentioned that Steem will surpass the $500 in 2018.

Life and Crypto world is so uncertain, none knows what are it's plan for us ;)

So rock it guys and Stay blessed

@thejohalfiles while I do not know a lot, but I have only heard good things about Ver. Also, yes Steem is surely the better form than any other chain.

Hello sir , how can i get upvote from you ???

@josteem found someone on steemit that he loves. It is @josteem

Love you too 😉

LOL, I have noticed this all day Dave -- well said.

Be good man!!!

Ive never really been a fan of ver from the first time I seen an interview of him. It was that interview of him crying about bitcoin and governments lol Too whiny for me to take serious

oh... yeah I remember that video.... "they are killing people"...... "you know what I mean..... killing"

Waaa waaa wa big cry baby ver lol

Great video. As a noob in this crypto space it's kinda hard to make out what's what in terms of the people you should or shouldn't believe. Your video's, while having to take them with a grain of salt, uncomplicate things in a very entertaining way. Kudo's :D

Poker is coming back with a BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM check out @spl (Steem Poker League) @dougpolkcrypto, poker on the Steem blockchain is a perfect match.

Reko_3

Yes! Listen to Reko ^^^^ Can we get Doug to play in a tourney!!????? I would do anything to make that happen.

When it comes to lightning he's flip floppin' all over the place like he's on a sandy beach on holiday

Pretty funny and crazy sh*t. Some people will do anything for a quick buck.

Great stuff Doug. We all new Roger was a complete ass and arrogant MF after the "flip off" video, but now we also know he's a felon and a Mt. Gox scam supporter along with plenty more dubious and shitty moments in his past. This needs to be brought to light because too many people seem to think Roger is some great guy and therefore also buy the whole "BTrash as Bitcoin Cash" story hook, line, and sinker. It's people like Roger that give a very bad name to crypto.

Roger is just the first of the "f(or/uc)kers" that started an avalanche of "me too" forks on Bitcoin. There is expected to be 50 or more new forks in 2018. Basically, it's just a bunch of parasites looking to ride on the success of Bitcoin by "f(or/uc)king" Bitcoin. They sell themselves as "helpers" but anyone that knows how scammers work know exactly what they are and what their tactics are. Roger is just the most visible of these that are currently trying milk the Bitcoin forks for all they are worth. If Bitcoin is the mother of all crypto, you know what these guys are.. MFs. Thanks again for calling it out so very clearly.

I don't get the hate for using BCash. If anything it has more potential from a branding perspective. Unless of course the insistent on using Bitcoin Cash/Core is to eventually drink Bitcoin's milkshake.

Only in this space could you find a marketing approach based upon slowly cannibalizing your competitor to eventually become him.
