What Do You Think Barry Silbert and His Banker Friends are Up To?
I Have an Absolute Distrust of the Current Financial System.
When these people start showing up and try to stick their noses in our free market system is really gets under my skin. I don't know if Barry Silbert and his crew are out to destroy Bitcoin or just profit off of it. Similar to what @TheArcaneBear explained, "Bitcoin is already good, why do we need guarantees?"
I Just Think They are Worried About Being Sent to the Bone Yard.
Bitcoin will change the idea of money in some years.

@hilarski,
You just started a great portal to discuss about upcoming BTC Hard Fork and continuous drama holds by Big Banks! This is a great topic to discuss! As you shared "Bitcoin is already good, why do we need guarantees?" I also have this question! Great article and a video friend!
Cheers~

Hi @hilarski, If these bakers had played the middleman role 5 years back, that made sense. Now, the situation is, everyone is going after Bitcoin. They're afraid of the Bitcoin's success and just want to control it. The past can never control the future as it's evident from many incidents in the history of humans.
By the way, this is very powerful photo:
Thanks for sharing.
Steem On!

Barric Silbert Grayscale Investments has issued a statement saying that the New York Stock Exchange has withdrawn its application for the Bitcoin Investment Trust, which was previously filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
What do they plan?

Totally banks are trying to get in on this and manipulate it to their advantage we see that every day now. They either talk it down as a scam and then invest in it lol or they say they are going to use blockchains themselves but what they don't tell you is they are YEARS away from that even being possible for them to do so.

@hilarski - I fail to see how segwit2x recentralizes control to central banks as middle men. That video makes it sound like the latter upcoming fork is actually like setting up an exchange and that those holding 2x coins will not be in control of their coins. Is that true?

@hilarski - Sir, I agree with what Mr. Rick said.... BTC will do to banks what email did to postal industry.... That's why they panic & started fake news against BTC.... But BTC proved them he is the boss.... But Sr, upcoming hardfork... I hate it... Hardforks will drain the power of this wonderful coin.... Nice you decided to share this information Sir...

Bankers are always looking to stick their fingers in everybody's pie, take the pie completely off the table and then sell it back to you...at interest, of course. Thank for your posts Randy! You deserve your 73 rating.

I disagree with your belief that Bitcoin was invented to be used only as a store of value and not a medium of exchange. I agree with your assessment that too many bankers are involved. They are involved in the funding of Bitcoin core through Blockstream.
Bitcoin Cash has more of the original disruptive core goals Satoshi Nakamoto invented blockchain for. Bitcoin Gold has a worthy goal of returning PoW mining back to a decentralized model, however it will take some time for the project to produce results and gain adoption. "Success" will take time to achieve.
Processing transactions "offchain" with segwit introduces a major design change and relaxes security. It allows certain processing to be done separately, segmenting the work to be done to validate transactions. This introduces new risk and increases vulnerability to exploits. The perfect place to position a middleman.
Glad to see another crypto enthusiast that distrusts banks and are skeptical of mainstream financial institutions.

That last memo just has to replace the word Bitcoin with Blockchain. No way Bitcoin is any real competition with its limitation in transactions, high fees, and unresourceful method of mining. Bitshares is another good alternative to replace the word with ^.^

Thats silly, have you have had to send an international wire transfer, doesn't sound like it. Its cheap compared not to mention faster and safer, which require no middle man. It is not only competition, it kicks the shit out of the old systems.

Bitcoin still only has a very small amount of people currently using it compared to the banks, and it's already having these issues. Imagine when it would try to take over its place... It's simply not possible. There are alternatives out there that can handle the job though, Bitshares being the #1 candidate if you ask me.

Pretty sure it is misdirection 'buy this not that while we make millions in BTC' Think about DeBeers.. if they control the supply they control the value.

I think they use these forks as reasons for pumps. If it was just a random pump, people would cotton on, so they create drama with a fork, and then pump on this "news", to lure noobs in to buy at all time highs, while they sell. Then the price dips, rinse and repeat.

Hello @hilarski,
Extraordinary article & as you believe BitCoin will change the concept of fiat currency. As a result of that, banks started hate BitCoin. You get that point very well.

Bitcoin was designed as a payment system and not a 'wealth storage layer,' read the white paper.

how is it a wealth storage layer , segwti has huge merit. The best would be onchain and offchain proposals. So it increase speeds two ways . That way making bitcoin even better. bigger block and lighting is better.

The bankers are on their heels. Their place as trusted third part verification agents is threatened. Hence they are using the typical playbook to get their hands around this.
To start they demonize it. Then they send in the regulatory slugs. And finally they take their unlimited fiat and buy up all they can.
Does any of this look familiar? It is exactly what is taking place as we speak. Over the last month we saw each item in action.
You know they are desperate when all three are taking place at once.
