Along those lines, Bitcoin enthusiasts promote second-layer scaling solutions; they are opposed to any hard forks that may solve said problems, but seek to replace Bitcoin, protective of the "Bitcoin" name, whose user base and brand recognition are unparalleled by other coins.
So this is how free speech dies...with thunderous applause.
Roger Ver April 8, 2018 Self-proclaimed cypher punk Jameson Lopp commented on Ver's Tweet that "[f]reedom of speech means that the government won't throw you in a cage for saying something it doesn't condone.
Freedom of speech doesn't mean that you can do whatever you want on someone else's property," starting an online argument about Twitter's policies on account suspension.
Twitter user Cryptomania replied to Jameson Lopp that "An army of people commanded by /r/bitcoin reporting the account non stop [sic]" led to its suspension, to which Lopp retorted that "[e]ven if that's the case, it's still an issue with Twitter as a private platform rather than with government authorities threatening folks.
Jack why do you guys keep letting this happen? Instead of suspending all the fake scammer accounts you suspend the real ones.
Policy of adhering to the mob rule of haters is not going to serve you or the Bitcoin project well.
Charlie Lee [LTC] April 8, 2018Before being suspended for a second time today, the account briefly appeared to have a new owner.
While the Twitter profile left the identity of its new owner relatively anonymous, one could hypothesize that the new user may have been from Turkey, as their third tweet, before the new account was suspended, read "Turkey is so cool" and featured the Turkish flag.
On April 3, a panel discussion dedicated to Bitcoin scaling between Roger Ver and Blockstream Chief Strategy Officer Samson Mow turned into a "Passionate debate" between the two's visions.
