Nope Vitalik believes code is law, just like any simple google search will show you. You just seem to be avoiding that all all costs. Strange really, wonder what your true motives are, good luck buddy!

I don't think you read that very well. His response is to Samson Mow (CSO of Blockstream) claiming that Vitalik was "Pivoting to 'Principles are law' from 'Code is law?'". This is because anyone who is eve

It's bizarre to me that one would NOT gauge the credibility of Ethereum today based on what the developers actually did vs what they said they would do. What exactly have they done to redeem themselves from their previous scandal?

I would highly suggest researching options trading, as you appear to be completely confused and/or misinformed about even the most fundamental aspects of options. If you have a question about options, you can contact the Options Indust

>Options trading is literally gambling To the average ignorant trader, sure. Otherwise this statement doesn't hold water. You should really do some research before making such silly uninformed claims.

As another commenter mentioned to you: "Changing the name or updating implementation details is not the same thing as completely abandoning the technology.". I agree with them, your comparison doesn't make much sense in this

I believe you are mistaken, the purpose of Bitcoin was very clear from the whitepaper title. It was to create "a Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System". Bitcoin Cash is the real, continued implementation of bitcoin, as it was design

Right. Now lets ask ourselves why one would need to spend hundreds to play a particular game. The answer you will come across most commonly is platform exclusivity deals. I am happy to pay for a game, but not buy the hardware for a system

Really? Because Satoshi's whitepaper is literally titled “Bitcoin: a Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System", not "Bitcoin a 'store of value'". It seems to me the real answer is Bitcoin was sequestered by Blockstr

"Stealing ideas" is also incorrect. A long running misconception doesn't make it not a misconception.

Piracy isn't stealing, it may be illegal, but it does not fit the definition of stealing. Saying piracy is theft, is an antiquated line of thinking that anyone with common knowledge of digital products knows to be false.

I think many people don't buy their "complete 180", as that only came after their massively failed campaign. I have no doubt that if these guys were successful in their initial endeavor there would have never been a 180 as y

Start by banning China (and any other country that doesn't allow US citizens to own land) from owning property in the US. Something tells me when you get rid of all the foreign profit lords, that property will be much more affordable
