Corporate takeover of bitcoin…
Nice try bcasher :)
What about Roger and Chinese corporations failed to take over bitcoin and now you have a shitcoin centralized in every level, being used by no one .
I prefer that version :)
I argue there's utility in any non-Bitcoin crypto that shows its value.
Bitcoin, BCH and two privacy coins (Monero and Pirate) are all I care about. Everything else has fucked me, so I have no interest in it.
You also presume I wouldn't criticize Roger Ver for being very snaky with his "Bitcoin" sites and services. I'd respect him a hell of a lot more if he didn't have a site called "Bitcoin.com" and have it be predominantly about Bitcoin Cash. At the very least, crack jokes the way that community does and call Bitcoin "Blockstream Coin" while still differentiating between it and Cash.

The site is the least issue, the wallet It’s closed source , full of shitcoins and adds. The news site is a propaganda machine.
When you send bitcoin cash on the bitcoin.com wallet you basically are using a centralized node used by basically all the BCH user (as the Bitcoin.com is the main wallet recommended to everyone from everyone), and the worst is seeing the community criticizing the lightnnng network for being “ centralized “ and criticizing open source non custodial wallet like breez or Phoenix for opening channels for you for cents , is just insane what is happening in that community.
Just because they bought the idea of buying coffee on the blockchain.
Hard pass.

Can't argue for the majority of BCH users, but I'm not extremely tech illiterate.
If it's not a hardware of self-custodial software wallet, I refuse to use it (Strike exempt). Doesn't matter if it's Bitcoin, BCH, whatever the fuck.
I want to own my money.
Oh, and Liquid was a shitcoin propped up to make Lightning fail. Never forget.
reply
You own nothing if just one guy have millions of BCH and almost all the hash power.
You are all agains blockstream and liquid network but you dont realize that bch is not different. In fact Can be worst as the value of bch is trending down vs Bitcoin, at least in liquid your LBTC still peg 1:1 in value.
