So disappointed to see Raiden (i.e. Lightning on Ethereum) go for a cash grab. A token is not needed. 🤑 5 LN teams on Bitcoin and no ICOs. x.com/coindesk/status/911138…

It seems @Barclays has shut down @CoinJournal's bank account for using and being associated with #Bitcoin.

Following MtGox theft, 7% of all bitcoins went missing (vs 4% of ETH today). Forking the chain was never considered.

A nice articulation of why I disagree with people who say “let the web be for documents, let native be for apps.”
