Ver rode the Cash band-wagon to help his position of control over the ecosystem, as did many others. Hundreds of millions of value was created — and a lot instantly lost — in a day. It's been pumped over and over again by mining pools looking to make a quick buck while the difficulty is low as well. That is where the "scam" lies. It isn't discrediting BCH — BCH already did that to itself.

Here is an example of a typical clueless Bitcoin investor with irrational hate toward a prominent player in the space who did nothing more than express their genuinely held opinion.

  Well, good job at assuming incorrectly. You wouldn't know by my comment that I've been in the space since '11, or that I've contributed to the codebase (however slightly). Nope, you just see a completely pragmatic view of Ver's actions as an attack, probably formed on the r/btc sub (that he mods). I love how you say "completely clueless" too — because it's ironically you.

    So an individual exercising their economic freedom to buy and sell an asset and express their opinion is an "Attack" in your book?

Do you have a problem with Ver helping to restore Bitcoin’s original functionality of making instant, practically free transactions? If you don’t like BCH then don’t use it, you can leave that to everyone else.

  "Everyone else". Lol. 24HR Transactions: * BTC — 328,580 [1] * BCH — 20,255 [2] [1]: https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/ https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/ [2]: https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20cash/ https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20cash/
