If Bitcoin is managed with a linux kernel style dictator it would be centralized (yet unlike linux, where people can fork without impacting others in Bitcoin a hard fork puts at risks everyone's bitcoins) - I hope we all agree there is no point in a centralized Bitcoin? In addition and more importantly, it would put Gavin in tremendous dangers, both from violent threats/blackmailing prospective as well as regulatory prospective - how can you not see that? I hope all this confrontation will be worth something in the end: to show that Bitcoin can't be changed centrally and that it can't be changed without consensus ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bitcoin-development mailing list Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development
