GM
If anyone should be mad at Roger Ver it's me. I have more reason to dislike him than most. I was friends with the guy from 2011 until the bcash split. He oranged pilled me, paid 14btc for baklava, helped so many liberty-minded individuals in NH, and hired me as the first employee at Blockchain(dot)info.
I didn't read about his downfall in Bitcoin in some book or tweet. I had a front row seat.
I don't have the luxury of hating a guy I never met and don't know anything about, unlike most who dislike him.
Have compassion for your enemies. You can disagree with them while simultaneously feeling sorrow for their situation.
I encourage you to give this a try. For your own sake, if nothing else.
