Buterin’s indictment of Btc maximalists is about as deep and meaningful as Trotsky’s critique of Stalin.
http://socialistreview.org.uk/321/slavo-zizek-presents-trotsky-terrorism-and-communism “… Making it mandatory for businesses to accept a specific cryptocurrency is contrary to the ideals of freedom that are supposed to be so important to the crypto space…” This is so weaselly the rotten little-shit should run for office somewhere. The ideals of freedom are clearly not something he values much - if at all. The ideals of freedom didn’t mean that much to May, Hughes, Gilmore, Young, Donald, Assange, Szabo and many others on the OG cypherpunks list. Why would they mean any more to a bunch of brain-dead, mincing gold-bugs? Discredited " Cyber liberty" lives Ethereum was reportedly premined extensively, it hard-forked in an abrupt, undemocratic manner and its present opacity, expense and netlag don’t inspire confidence. Conceived for degree’s of crypto-freedom - maybe. But a small ’ state-capacity ’ elite still appears to have more crypto-freedom in it than than the average ether-huffing plebian. All this aside from the very Assange-like creature that is Vitalik Buterin. This revolting creep has criminal, con-artist, carpetbagger written all over his sorry face. TL/DR Buttface babbling about ‘Crypto Ideals’ sends a powerful warning to all Dealers not to huff their own Product.
