Watching and understanding are two completely different things. If you're still waiting for Creg to jump through a hoop so number will go up, you've missed the point entirely. Creg doesn't owe you shit. Instead of bitching about Creg, try building instead.
If I was Satoshi, I would do exactly what he did do, which is sell a modest amount (24 million) of 2010 coins that sends a signal to those paying attention, without crashing the market. I would only move the early coins at the very end.
Fair enough, but let's think through this logically... If he sells all his BTC and the judge rules he owes half to Kleiman, he could be in big trouble. If he just moves an early coin to prove Satoshiness, BTC would crash and his stash would be worthless.
It's obviously annoying that Craig hasn't dumped all his BTC yet; but to be fair, we did have a pandemic which delayed the Kleiman trial and it appears Craig also had a security breach to deal with. The important thing is that BSV works as digital cash.
You seem like a well-meaning dude, but if you're really that skeptical about Craig, you should watch all the videos on the Theory of Bitcoin channel, especially the ones where he goes through every section of the white paper and early Satoshi posts.
I understand the need to reach people beyond Twetch, but it's disappointing that so many BSVers spend 99% of their time arguing with clowns on Twitter instead of building the community on Twetch.
Creg gave away over half a million (20BTC) last year to economic and computer education groups AIER and FSF. It's not much for him, but that's just the small portion that we know about. Don't be a dick.
Creg: What people don't understand... It's about Lawr... It's about creating a Better system... Or Whatever else. Jimmy: Thank you, Creg. Next question.
It might be useful to keep some around as a scientific curiosity, so we could study the nature of their atrophied brains; but you're right, it's probably too risky to let them roam freely.
Twetch hats are ironically like BTC... too expensive to actually use in real life. Maybe us riffraff could at least afford a T-shirt or some Kermit socks to help spread the word?
If you DO decide to destroy BSV, could you kindly give me a couple days advance notice? The Night Fox tricked me into selling a kidney, so I could buy all the dips.
