Destroying Arguments Against Roger Ver

in #bitcoin6 years ago

@rogerkver Roger Ver, Bitcoin Jesus or Scam Artist?
It's hard to swim in the waters of crypto without coming across the name Roger Ver.
Once ubiquitously loved by all within the crypto community for fervently proselytizing Bitcoin, ever since Bitcoin Cash (BCH) forked from Bitcoin Core (BTC) on November 1st 2017, Roger has vociferously come under attack and received many accusations.

Many hold Roger as the brainchild behind the creation of Bitcoin Cash, however, Bitcoin Cash is no more Rogers than it is any ones. The Bitcoin Cash client was released by Amaury Sechet, a staunch anarchist, in response to the 'Core Devs' of Bitcoin not increasing the blocksize. The entire purpose of Bitcoin is that it's open source and decentralized so that no one person has control. The Bitcoin Cash fork according to Roger caught him as off guard as everyone else.

Roger is entitled to his opinion if he thinks that Bitcoin Cash is the most legitimate version of Bitcoin (self evident to anyone that's actually read the whitepaper) and publicly advocating for it being so certainly doesn't qualify as fraud.

Judging someone on what the crowd is saying isn't a good way to assess the truth let alone the character of someone so in this video, I examine many of the arguments made against Roger Ver.

Sort:  

If you think this isn't an act of scamming your customers you are delusional:

Firstly, BCH is an altcoin and technically not Bitcoin (try to synchronise to the BCH network with old Bitcoin software). BCH also forked off without consensus, another reason that it CANNOT BE BITCOIN! Calling BCH Bitcoin is scammy behaviour and everyone doing it is a scammer! He is misleading people to buy the wrong (FAKE) asset and causing a lot of confusion in an industry that is complicated for newbies already.

Secondly, Bitcoin Core is a software implementation and not a cryptocurrency. He is renaming Bitcoin in something that doesn't exist to spread even more confusion. Roger Ver is poison for the Bitcoin community, the BCH = Bitcoin scam is worse than Bitconnect.

The market is becoming rational because of the bear market and BCH is bleeding to dead, finally the market will take care of scammers by destroying their wealth and making them irrelevant.
