From: Sent: To: jeffrey E. <jeevacation@gmail.com> Wednesday, September 3, 2014 10:19 AM an excerpt from many many similar emails. =C2 - Also, reading about the incidents on the blockchain and the source code of the bitcoin client it's by now very clear that there's very litt=e decentralization about bitcoin. For instance, the core devs + mining pools owner manually reverted the blockchain in 2013 due to a split. The idea of "oh if you don't like the changes in the code you can =ork and start a new block chain/currency" is the old open source bullshit=20 smoke screens strategy which hides stuff like network effects, lock in, general population ignorance, etc etc I guess what I'm saying is that bitcoin is more of a trojan horse to 'disrupt' finance (and a fiat money making 'trick' for some= than any utopian decentralized currency thing or maybe I'm just way too cynical=20 :) The expressed concern is representative of many=that i receive from a group of super smart geeks. that s=lf- categorizes itself as "ethical hackers". -- Their widely held= and firm belief is that the "kernel". is manipulated by l=ss than free market, low transaction cost thinkers. pleas= note The information contained in this communication is confid=ntial, may be attorney-client privileged, may constitute inside informa=ion, and is intended only for the use of the addressee.
