I’ll Launch Bitcoin 2.0 — Compromise Over Capture

The system is self-regulating. If someone seizes “power” the way you described, people will turn away. That entire grand system — paid for at the planet’s expense — will end up being used only to shuffle zeros between insiders and sell them to one another.

That’s a 15th‑century way of solving problems, not a 21st‑century one. In the modern era, we look for compromise and governance, not force. In the world of blockchain and cryptocurrency, community consent matters.

I’ll launch Bitcoin 2.0. I’ll issue everyone exactly as many coins as are in the original and say that the ones who grabbed control stole our asset — use mine instead. If I promote it loudly enough and I’m right, Bitcoin 1.0 will suffer. That’s an example of why we need to negotiate.
