Jimmy Song en Samson maai vs. Vitalik Buterin, Battle Royale by LABITCONF

The fact that Jimmy Song and Samson Mow were in the same bill as Vitalik Buterin was interesting enough, but the actual panel was the equivalent of an atomic bomb blowing the stage up. What started as a discussion about the FTX collapse and saga, turned into a heated debate about bitcoin Vs. Ethereum pretty quickly. It was a spectacle. And Song and Mow ensembled into some kind of bitcoin killing machine right before our eyes. 

Kom ons begin egter by die begin. 

Besides the already mentioned characters, Ripio’s Juan Llanos and Kraken’s Alejandro Palantzas completed the panel. The moderators were Rodolfo Andragnes and Diego Gutiérrez Zaldívar, Co-founder of the Bitcoin Argentina NGO. At first, Llanos tried to explain the FTX saga in a polite way. It was a stressful situation and mistakes were made, he said. However, Samson Mow wasn’t having it. “The main problem is that they built their business on a sh*tcoin,” he said. Vitalik laughed. Everything was fine.

Volgens Mow het dit niks met reguleerders te doen gehad nie. FTX was diep in die bed met reguleerders,” wat 'n fenomenale punt is. Sam Bankman-Fried was die gesig van die regering om die hele kripto-industrie meer reguleerdervriendelik te maak. Waar staan ​​daardie beweging nou? Daarna het Jimmy Song selfs hoër gegaan en gesê dat ja, dit het alles gebeur, maar die werklike probleem is die gebruik van gesentraliseerde dienste as bewaarders. Soos die ou gesegde sê: Nie jou sleutels nie, nie jou munte nie. 

So ver so goed. Maar daar was reeds spanning in die lug...

Finally, it was Vitalik’s turn. He criticized Bankman-Fried’s megalomania and compared the FTX billboards and the stadium naming to the behavior of dictators from the last century. Vitalik explained how the FTT racket worked, and Samson Mow dropped the bomb. Mow said that a lot of what Vitalik was saying also applies to Ethereum and all hell broke loose.

Die moderator, Diego Gutiérrez Zaldívar, het probeer om dinge op FTX gefokus te hou, maar hy het misluk. Die kat was uit die sak. Gutiérrez Zaldívar het Samson Mow gevra vir die definisie van "sh*tcoin" en die voormalige Blockstream het pas Ethereum en sy funksionering beskryf terwyl Vitalik in ongeloof toegekyk het. "Die probleem met sh*tcoins is dat hulle meestal voorgee dat hulle gedesentraliseerd is terwyl hulle op Amazon loop, en niemand kan 'n node bestuur nie."

Volgens Jimmy Song was die FTX se ineenstortings ware les dat mense hul eie transaksies moet behartig en verifieer, punt. Song het die Altcoin-kultuur van vertroue en nie verifieer nie gekritiseer. “Jy moet leer hoe om jou eie goed te verifieer, en as jy nie daardie les leer nie, raak jy almal verwoes. Dit is net ’n kwessie van tyd.”

Since it was two against one, Gutiérrez Zaldívar took it upon himself to protect Vitalik and Ethereum. He didn’t do a very good job. He gave Alejandro Palantzas the word and Palantzas said there’s a reason companies like Kraken and Coinbase are still in business 10 years later. They have resisted the temptation to print their own token or “sh*tcoin,” and “they didn’t do it because it’s morally wrong.” According to Palantzas, all the scammers in the space don’t understand what bitcoin regtig is. Bitcoin “is freedom, it’s liberty.”

Mow vergelyk die Altcoin-wêreld met 'n casino

When Samson Mow defined “sh*tcoins,” he said that they advertised themself as decentralized when they had an obvious issuer. Vitalik challenged him asking if Satoshi was bitcoin’s issuer. Mow responded that what Satoshi did was set up a number of rules that a lot of people followed, which is not the same as being a central issuer. Neither Mow nor Song stated the obvious, that Satoshi is not among us while Vitalik and other altcoin CEOs are. And their influence over the protocols they preside over is immense. 

Vitalik het sy grootste treffer van die aand gehad terwyl hy gepraat het oor selfbewaring gerieflik vir gewone mense. Hy het die skare-plesierige roete gegaan en gesê dat die hele bedryf moet saamwerk om dit te laat gebeur, en die publiek het ontplof. Mow het gesê dat, in teenstelling met die algemene opvatting, selfbewaring maklik was. Mense moet net die hardeware-beursie se instruksies volg. Jimmy Song het verder gegaan en gesê dat as mense nie bereid is om moeite te doen en 'n paar dinge te leer nie, hulle nie “self-soewereine geld” verdien nie. 

Song het ook na die Ethereum-skepper se keel gegaan deur te sê: "Ek weet jy wil dit nie hoor nie, ek weet jy wil jou geld aan Vitalik gee." Daarop het Vitalik geantwoord dat hy Vitalik nie eers met sy geld vertrou nie, en die opstelling van sy 4/6 multi-sig-beursie verduidelik. Wat snaaks was, maar die werklike vraag ontduik het. Is hy in die middel van Ethereum of nie?

Om die ongemaklike maar uiters prettige paneel te beëindig, het Gutiérrez Zaldívar afgesluit met sy grootste treffer van die aand. Hy het gesê dat die oop vrae vir almal bly om oor na te dink, "omdat ons nie die waarheid het nie, deel ons net ons manier van dink."

So wat dink jy?
