r/btc fraud: credibility lost or politics as usual (self.Bitcoin)

truthm0nger が 投稿

(Giving up and posting on r/bitcoin am getting censored time and again by r/btc automod and r/btc mods unwilling to help. )

There is strong evidence of reddit voting fraud associated with the r/btc forum https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4biob5/research_into_instantaneous_vote_behavior_in/

Is this justifiable retaliation for u/theymos censorship of consensus proposals xt, classic, unlimited?

Or is this a credibility hit and beginning of the end for r/btc

What other dirty tactics has r/btc been up to? What else would be fair game? Paying shills to post many negative stories? Telling lies and writing libelous false claims about core supporters? Using sock-puppets to fake support for comments? Shorting bitcoin and buying ethereum and then paying people to fake bitcoin FUD in hopes of driving people out of btc into eth.

Some other confirmed things: bribing people to mine classic and giving instructions on faking classic node counts.

Is r/bitcoin just as bad? Are core supporters spreading lies? Or is this mostly a classic and r/btc effect?

Don't forget their hit pieces on all the core devs, ganging up to attack them in gross personal ways and doxxing them

Or their brigades on wallets that speak out to support core, organizing bad reviews to punish them

Buying ads to get their lies in front of people in this forum to bypass moderation

Trying to organize big sell offs to drag the price down

Selectively translating propaganda pieces into Chinese

Reaching out into other subreddits to attack Bitcoin as being broken

Putting together attack pieces on Bitcoin to show how it's not working to be sent to the press for them to write stories on how Bitcoin is broken

Trying to find ways to get Theymos kicked off the forum

Etc, etc

I thougjht this notion was crazy at first but with Mike Hearn cheerleading Ethereum threads. Reddit bots also being used to spam for Ethereum. I beginning suspect a lot of people who were previously invested in Bitcoin invested in Ethereum and worked together to pump the price while attempting to discredit Bitcoin. I still think its an interesting project but I really feel there is high level political game being played right now to shift power to a token those people own.

/r/btc has only strengthened the position of /r/bitcoin

it was really quite brilliant to see that community segregate itself and then watch it take a good long look at itself in the mirror.

Priceless

/r/btc people are crazy. Like, as in, certifiably paranoid fruit-loops (I think that's the technical term).
