I am currently running BCHD and ABC on my servers. I used to run BU (with excessiveblocksize=<1GB (

so I suggest everybody do their own homework.

During the 2018 HashWar the ABC team, Bitcoin dot com team and the miners killed it. They were on top of their game, just like the SAME

MINERS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TODAY were there protecting the chain from an attempted takeover.

I saw that Peter Rizun from BU started writing a lot during the last few days! Where

were these writings and blogs when BCH was under attack? Where was BU when the chain was under attack? They were busy coming out with the attackers full node software.

And now they

are saying they will stop miners from spending their own money. Something as extreme as this brings back HashWar thoughts and I don’t like it.

Before you pop a vein, I understand

that the governance of BU has allowed this to happen. But their actions speak for themselves. No wonder some of the Devs from BU have left the scene following their BSV node release.

Now, while we argue with forks over a petty 6M$, imagine that our attackers have access to billions of $. We can't even pay our small Dev team a decent wage! How do we the holders and

As of NOW the *BCH Community* has failed at showing the Miners and the Devs anything but pitchforks (myself included if you’ve read what I just wrote about BU)! Maybe

thru hard times. For the last couple of years the BCH Miners along with the Bitcoin ABC team have been working hard to make BCH a success. How can we actually think that they will

take the funds and use them for the wrong projects? We have a roadmap that was defined a long time. It’s not that hard to check if they’re spending the money right or wrong! Look

at the roadmap and see If they are working on this or NOT.

After all this time we, the community, see them as the enemy. It’s been 2 and half years since BCH forked off. If we

Special thanks to a lot of people, but mainly to the honest miners that tried to fund the Devs in a new and quirky way that could have provided us with a
