a USA President speaks about Bitcoin for the first time – Trump says he is not a fan
I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air. Unregulated Crypto Assets can facilitate unlawful behavior, including drug trade and other illegal activity….

#BitcoinRegret of #BitcoinAt10 multimedia series by @coindesk
2/19 When⌠Prius?
While the #bitcoin industry is infatuated with Lambos, @Rassah couldn't care less about suicide doors and instead purchased a planet-saving Prius.
There's one catch â he did it when bitcoin was at $22. https://t.co/z4lfuPGbpp #BitcoinRegret pic.twitter.com/QJmUUIZLcu

4/19 Fee-Less? Yeah rightâŚ
Back in the day, bitcoin was hard to get your hands on.
So enthusiasts, including @SirBitt, has to go through a number of expensive hoops to purchase the cryptocurrency (in his case, from @SecondLife). https://t.co/194JpzTIbx #BitcoinRegret

6/19 Bitcoin is hard.
And @brianchoffman and others @OpenBazaar nearly had a heart attack when they sent $100 worth of #bitcoin that looked like $10,000 worth.

8/19 Every đ Single đ MIT đ Undergrad
In 2014, Bitcoin Core dev @JeremyRubin & friends raised half a million dollars to give everyone at the university $100 of #bitcoin.
In hindsight, that's a pretty good amount of bitcoin now. https://t.co/wRRtgDNuZ3 #BitcoinRegret pic.twitter.com/VvmylaX0ER

10/19 I should've been just an investorâŚ
Sure, launching a startup in the space has its benefits. But @coinsetter's @borntobank said buying #bitcoin would have been more lucrative than the exchange.
And definitely less work too. https://t.co/JfqCUODavy #BitcoinRegret pic.twitter.com/D8xzJlxig4

12/19 Our friend, the Haitian President, was overthrownâŚ

15/19 More from the #Bitcoin Civil War
Bitcoin Core developer @Excellion regrets encouraging @brian_armstrong by telling him Bitcoin Classic didn't succeed because he didn't want it badly enough.
Whoa. https://t.co/j4ZTrfzxqc #BitcoinRegret pic.twitter.com/FAqeRKIPTv

17/19 Just a little dipâŚ
Gianni Versace's famous pool got #bitcoin entrepreneurs Jason King of @SeansOutpost and Moe Levin of @keynote_ae thrown out into the street and banned from the mansion…
At least for a couple years.

19/19 I'm not angry, I'm just disappointedâŚ
So says @DataTranslator, the co-founder of now-defunct Avalon, which produced the world's first #bitcoin ASICs. To him, mining is about securing the network, not making a profit. https://t.co/27DM1KVMIu #BitcoinRegret pic.twitter.com/hc4wWccE3H

the other side of the story @eric_lombrozo
In hindsight, the politicization of mining might have been inevitable…but scapegoating of Bitcoin protocol developers needs to stop. Without their incredible work, Bitcoin node software wouldn't be able to keep up with current network demand at all and would be far less secure.
— Eric Lombrozo (@eric_lombrozo) December 12, 2017
Gavin and Mike lobbied industry with a particular agenda without consulting any other protocol developers (https://t.co/j3pmVck4Wd) stating an intent to "be more of a dictator" and to politicize mining (29:40).
— Eric Lombrozo (@eric_lombrozo) December 12, 2017
Then a massive smear campaign against protocol developers who went against this agenda was launched on reddit. This would eventually lead to Mike's rage quit and a hit piece against protocol developers being published in the New York Times.

It's bad enough that the accusations leveled at Blockstream are false. Many others who have little to do with Blockstream other than collaboration on open source software development were implicated as well.

Ron Paul poll about Bitcoin
A wealthy person wants to gift you $10,000. You get to choose in which form you'll take the gift. But there's a catch: You must keep the gift in the form that you choose, and you can't touch it for 10 years.
In which form would you take the gift?

Bitcoin Kidnap Story
Paid $50,000 in Bitcoins in February 2011 for the release of my girlfriend kidnapped in West Panama, unfortunately they were not kind enough to gave a receipt. That opened my eyes to the Potential of Bitcoin and bought a shitload ( $3 per Bitcoin ), Antifragile pic.twitter.com/HMKmqHEh0F
