  1. Very poor, inaccurate reporting.
    Roger Ver did NOT spend 10 months in prison for "selling firecrackers". If you ACTUALLY READ the paper you flashed on the screen, you would know Roger spent 10 months in prison for breaking THREE different laws! Roger did NOT sell "firecrackers". He sold an explosive called "Pest Control Report 2000". This is an explosive used by farmers, that was SO DANGEROUS it was taken off the market.

    The THREE laws Roger Ver violated were:
    1) Title 18, Section 842(a)(1): dealing in EXPLOSIVES without a license (NOT "selling firecrackers" as you put it)
    2) Title 18, Section 842(j): illegally storing EXPLOSIVES (in a residential apartment, putting woman and children at risk)
    3) Title 18, Section 1761: mailing injurious articles by way of the U.S. Postal Service

    A good reporter would ask "When did you break these three laws? What were you doing at the time?"
    Roger was conducting these illegal activities while he was CEO of Memory Dealers!!!

    Why would a CEO making millions, start such an illegal side business? (now that's a good question)

  2. I don't buy the "needs to have additional use cases outside of just being a store of value" argument to be a store of value. Having said that, I think BCH is here to stay and will gain more $ value percentage wise than BTC will simply because of the lower economic mass and narrative as it goes up in value that "look, people are valuing it more because it's more viable for every day commerce" when that will not be the reason for it actually going up but people will see the more easily made large green candles (thanks to its lower economic mass) vs. BTC's and pile into it as a result, pushing the price up higher percentage-wise as a result. Speculation/speculative-frenzy will be the exact same cause for BCH's bigger gains over BTC this next bull run. But that smaller economic mass will cause a greater correction than it will for BTC, just as it is for practically all other alts to BTC.

  3. Ver is an egomaniac and can't admit to his botched attempt at more ego gratification with bitcoin cash. Dude, you made a fortune on Bitcoin. Time to bow out and thank your lucky stars

  4. Before Roger Ver criticized Bitcoin, I thought more positively about Bitcoin Cash. I have lost respect for Roger Ver and Bitcoin Cash. "Given, Roger is overall optimistic for cryptocurrency, and an extremely nice guy.
