December 5, 2017 – Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash

Bloomberg published a good article here:

I have a question for everyone regarding the conclusion, point #11, about the battle to become number one as the article points out. I think it is part of human nature, part greed, part ego, maybe a sense of trying to do good in the world and wanting more resources to do so. Competition is healthy. And having the option to choose is healthy. However, the animosity and vitriol that is spewed to trash talk the two I find to be mostly unfounded, and does nothing but hurt the Bitcoin brand. Bitcoin for a store of value, and Bitcoin Cash for everyday transactions, does that really seem impossible? Pool together talent behind these two, and both Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash will dominate the market. Infighting will allow for other coins to swoop in and take the lead. Not that that is a bad thing, but in the early stages of this cryptocurrency revolution, it is more important than ever to have people unified in their position from the very beginning. Not doing so will weaken the resolve of the very people we want as future supporters of crypto.
