Jimmy Song i Samson Mow vs. Vitalik Buterin, Battle Royale na LABITCONF-u

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. 

Počnimo ipak od početka. 

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.

Prema Mowu, “ovo nije imalo nikakve veze s regulatorima. FTX je bio duboko u vezi s regulatorima,” što je fenomenalna točka. Sam Bankman-Fried bio je lice koje se podilazilo vladi kako bi cijela kriptoindustrija bila prilagođenija regulatorima. Gdje je sada taj pokret? Nakon toga, Jimmy Song je otišao još gore i rekao da da, sve se to dogodilo, ali pravi problem je korištenje centraliziranih usluga kao skrbnika. Kao što stara poslovica kaže: Ni tvoji ključevi, ni novčići. 

Zasada je dobro. Ali u zraku se već osjećala napetost...

Jimmy Song i Samson Mow vs. Vitalik Buterin

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.

Moderator, Diego Gutiérrez Zaldívar, pokušao je zadržati stvari usredotočene na FTX, ali nije uspio. Mačka je bila iz vreće. Gutiérrez Zaldívar je pitao Samsona Mowa za definiciju "sh*tcoin" i bivši Blockstream je samo opisao Ethereum i njegovo funkcioniranje dok je Vitalik promatrao u nevjerici. "Problem sa sh*tcoinima je taj što se pretvaraju da su decentralizirani dok rade na Amazonu, uglavnom, i nitko ne može pokrenuti čvor."

Prema Jimmyju Songu, prava lekcija kolapsa FTX-a bila je ta da ljudi moraju sami čuvati i verificirati svoje transakcije, točka. Song je kritizirao Altcoin kulturu povjerenja, a ne provjere. “Morate naučiti kako provjeriti svoje vlastite stvari, a ako ne naučite tu lekciju, svi ćete biti uništeni. Samo je pitanje vremena."

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 stvarno jest. Bitcoin “is freedom, it’s liberty.”

Mow uspoređuje svijet Altcoina s kasinom

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 je imao svoj najveći hit večeri dok je govorio o tome da samoskrbništvo učini praktičnijim običnim ljudima. Krenuo je putem ugađanja publici i rekao da bi cijela industrija trebala raditi zajedno kako bi se to dogodilo, a javnost je eksplodirala. Mow je rekao da je, suprotno uvriježenom mišljenju, samoskrbništvo lako. Ljudi samo moraju slijediti upute hardverskog novčanika. Jimmy Song otišao je dalje i rekao da ako ljudi nisu voljni uložiti truda i naučiti nekoliko stvari, ne zaslužuju “samosuvereni novac”. 

Također, Song je uhvatio kreatora Ethereuma za grlo rekavši "Znam da ne želiš ovo čuti, znam da želiš dati svoj novac Vitaliku." Na to je Vitalik odgovorio da Vitaliku ne vjeruje ni svoj novac i objasnio postavku svog 4/6 multi-sig novčanika. Što je bilo smiješno, ali je izbjeglo pravo pitanje. Je li on u središtu Ethereuma ili ne?

Za kraj neugodne, ali iznimno zabavne ploče, Gutiérrez Zaldívar zaključio je svojim najvećim hitom večeri. Kazao je da ostaju otvorena pitanja o kojima svi moraju razmišljati, “jer mi nemamo istinu, mi samo dijelimo svoj način razmišljanja”.

Pa što ti misliš?
