Yes it's controlled but at least transfers still decentralized , means no one can know who you are

Good old times!...:)...

Then Blockstream fucked it up.

Now there are eleventy-six thousand different Bitcoins! Hooray!

the experiment of banksters called bitcoin is finishing, now appear the dollar coin, peso coin, peseta coin, rublo coin, yuan coin, every country go to do their own coin in the blockchain, that only the guverment could mine. In this way, the paper money will dissapear.

Its to bad Bitcoin was supposed to be decentralized and has turned into one of the most centralized coins, the development and mining are controlled by a handful of people

It is being controlled by the so called early adopters.

Huh?
Bitcoin is the most decentralized out of all coins...
Mining pools don't equal miners. Mining is also free market. Of course it slowly condense but miners don't control it. All system have to condense att one point but in Bitcoin mining condensation doesn't hurt it.
Bitcoin mining is just one part of the control system. Users/holders,Devs,LN nodes,Buiness are all other parties that keep bitcoin in check. And how in the world is bitcoin dev centralized? Anyone can join. The only reason why "few" people code is the same reason as any other system. Not everyone can code. And no Blockstream doesn't control Bitcoin either.

alguien tiene que tener el control porque tu no lanzar algo al mercado si no te asegurar que vas obtener el control y la gananacias

I agree. Looks like it is controlled by some group.
