fluffybunny has been a significant figure in cryptocurrency since very early on, i think it started up in 2011 or 2022, and he postures and poses a lot about privacy and egalitarianism in mining - the simple fact is that only one cryptocurrency can survive in the long term on proof of work mining, without having a central figure shifting things around and pushing people to follow his chosen fork

that's the big difference about bitcoin, there is no central figure, and it has outlasted almost everything

probably if fluffybunny loses his cachet or dies or something, that there will be a big fight over it, it forks yet again into 5 different chains and demonstrates the problem of people leading these things
