It’s hard to tell if Roger Ver is a scammer, or a victim of many scams. Perhaps he is the most malicious liar in Bitcoin history.

I don’t really care. He says everyone should hold their own keys, privacy is important, and Bitcoin can destroy the central banks.

This is the message of Bitcoin. If Roger is using this message to scam shitcoiners, I don’t care. The message is far more important than the messenger.

Michael Saylor does not like this message. His message is that Bitcoin needs to separate itself from the cypherpunks.

The big blockers were right about one thing. Big blocks are far less centralizing than KYC custodial lightning.

Listen to nostr:npub12qz56plzehejkyp4waaannmnny4y4c30j8q55a3wlk49haslga2snypdx8 interview Roger and decide for yourself. Maybe you hate cypherpunks too. Whatever, Bitcoin is for enemies. When we have drivechains, everyone will come back to the real Bitcoin anyway.

That's not gonna happen, sadly, better start working with Roger to implement on BCH.

He's a scammer

-Vouched for MtGox solvency

-Promoted $700M Bitclub ponzi

-partnered & promoted Craig Wright

-partnered & promoted $36M ICO FuzeX scam

-promoted shitokens like Hex

-Put a "Buy Bitcoin" button that sells you BCash

-Denied he did any of these things

Hmm, sounds like…

- Peter McCormack and other Bitcoin influencers shilling scams they fell for

- the Lightning network

- Bitcoiners promoting #MSTR like it’s more ethical and decentralized than Ethereum

- Michael Saylor and Peter Todd promoting shitcoins like Monero because "Bitcoin doesn’t need to upset regulators"

- BlockStream getting $21 million VC money to create sidechains, and giving us a multisig shitcoin instead

Don't burn bridges because of this. Sooner or later, he will wake up and realize he has learned about people from memes and predators willing to repeat the same lies they claim to keep away from the community with carefully placed toxicity.

So are you now into BCH and XMR or what ?

Sounds like typical bigblockers/CSW cultists talking points.

Roger Ver is either a scammer, simple man but the world's biggest technical and richest idiot, or wants to dictate to the world what bitcoin should be

Good points but you should give dandarkpill credit who made it on twitter.

It is not hard to tell. On Twitter, if you criticized him you’d be met by a lil army of shills. Don.t like that r/BTC sub on Reddit either and how the sub description was changed. But Ver found Nostr I guess, seeing BCH shills popping up here and there lately.

I am not a BCH shill. I think large blocks on L1 are a bad idea, but this does not mean large blocks do not have a use case.

The problem with big L1 blocks is it makes the cost to run an L1 node too expensive. If less people can run a full node, then the 21 million could be compromised. The 21 million is all that matters.

With a big block sidechain, pegged 1:1 by Bitcoin’s proof of work, it doesn’t matter if the optional L2 node is a bit more expensive. We can have multiple big block sidechains with atomic swaps; so the 21 million is always secured, and the sidechains are still FAR more decentralized than any shitcoin or custodial lightning.

I was not referring to you. Just random notes I spotted here and there. I’m not really criticizing big blocks, I’m criticizing people using shady tactics. (I don’t understand blockchains well enough to have an opinion on block size, but I understand human behavior well enough I guess)

After reading that interview with nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 I am indeed curious about sidechains.

Roger runs his bitcoin.com affinity scam to lure people into BCH to this day. He is a scammer and can't be trusted.

Also this:

Don't allow that scammer back ffs.

There are no maybes with Ver, he IS a serial fraudster and if you fall for his lies it's on you. There is plenty of evidence if you care to dyor. You have been warned.

I like Michael Saylor part of this note.

Big blocks are more centralizing in the long run and they are inevitable if enabled. Everyone would have to download them to be self sovereign. Lightning can be used in a self custodian way, many people just don't want self custody. They used exchanges to store BTC even at times when Blockchain was small in size.

Shilling RV in any capacity is cringe as fuck bud.

Roger tells you to hold your keys, but that running a node isn’t important.

He’s a fraud and no better than Michael Saylor.

Roger Ver Derangement Syndrome is real, careful

Wrong.
