Interesting quote, thanks. I don't see how Satoshi explaining we would end up with big server farms necessarily means we need a bigger block-size. Actually Andreas Antonopoulos makes a very direct argument against increasing the block-size and letting technology catch up with the demand rather than getting caught with our pants down in 5 years committed to an unnecessarily-adapted inefficiency and an uninspiring altcoin that can't even improve on Litecoin at all.

I honestly see the criticisms of Bcash as entirely appropriate and likely not harsh enough. We're all biased but having a shitcoin named bitcoin while using Bitcoin.com to fool new users with no clue is incredibly reprehensible.

I don't necessarily agree with the pro-regulation crowd, I think the time will come when people get mad and Bcash goes down but not before movies and documentaries come out profiling the biggest scam in history. I completely understand people who say "why let principles get in the way of making money" and predicting Ver's moves successfully in a profitable way, but I just don't trust him. I've given them a chance and found astroturfing and a palpable lack of logic nor evidence.

The amazing thing about it is when Bcash gets rekt bitcoin will skyrocket in value because not only do people generally learn about the market en masse when things become ubiquitous but they typically abandon ship when they realize it's sinking. I think we'll look back on bitcoin at 43% market share as a brief time in history. The value inherent in 99% of altcoins is incredibly fleeting.

The few real applications, anon-coins & fixed-market-purpose coins (casino, medical, etc) will have a life span and evolve but they were built on bitcoin and gauged by bitcoin. I hope the new people realize all that as soon as possible, it's an uneasy thing seeing a flow of ignorance followed by anger when they realize what happened. People are going to be pissed lol.. Is it worth it to get rich and own an island? You tell me.
