Was für eine unterirdische Bande, die sich Core nennt.

The saddest part of this entire event are the actions that the Core has taken towards Andresen. With the help of forum administrator theymos (who stickied a post with his own personal opinion to thousands of readers), they have fueled a new narrative that Andresen is incompetent. After the Core disabled Andresen's access to the Core repository by stating that he was hacked and that fact was proven false, Core developer Peter Todd now advocates the removal of Andresen's commit access permanently, on the grounds that he is "untrustworthy or incompetent" (https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status ... 4587632640.) The explanation is nonsensical, as Andresen is the same person he was yesterday. There is no pattern of repeated dishonesty or untrustworthiness that would warrant consideration of privilege revocation.

This action should be recognized for what it is: a coup by Core members to remove someone politically opposed to their views from bitcoin's future development, and the community should understand that this isn't a theoretical problem - there will be less advancement as a result of Andresen's ouster. And in terms of human ethics, Todd is taking advantage of someone who may have been the victim of a scam at his lowest point, by choosing this moment to twist the knife. What kind of man does that?

I disagree with Andresen about many topics. I think that his decision to withdraw BIP101 was incorrect. I also believe that his continued failure to step forward and lead has been a huge disappointment. Though he has claimed repeatedly that he is "approaching 50" and has kids, sometimes life intervenes to and calls a person who is uniquely capable to accomplish greater things. That said, Andresen has done more than anyone else in this entire industry, save possibly Wright himself, to advance the interest of cryptocurrency and everything it has become. If it weren't for his effort, then it is quite possible that you would not be reading this right now, because cryptocurrency would have remained a fringe ideal.

Wright has not yet provided all the proof he claims he is going to provide, so I will withhold judgement on his claims. What I do know is that even if Wright is completely discredited, and definitively shown to be a liar, fraud, and a cheat all at once, Gavin Andresen will have made a mistake. That one mistake will not have proven Andresen completely incompetent, irrevocably destroyed his character, or made him unfit to contribute to the bitcoin industry. If Wright does not follow through on his proof, then despite this incident Andresen will have contributed more to the advancement of bitcoin than every single one of the imbeciles who are attempting to discredit his name.
