 Say what you want about Roger Ver but he introduced me to Bitcoin and I am grateful 🙏 
 Part of me feels sorry for him. He obviously needs to take responsibility for what happened but it seems to me to be a toxic mixture of passion, ignorance, and ego. 
 🫂 That's how I felt when you mentioned stock 2 flow/planB. It's wrong but I wouldn't be here without some of those concepts. 
 why is S2F wrong?  it's pretty much back on trendline.  
 PlanB went around promoting his models and targets while not actually believing them and buying himself 
 imo it only accounts for the supply side dynamics and those alone do not drive a market ... Others would say the math is suspect

With that said I like it as a measure of how hard a money is and the model may point in the right direction I just wouldn't count on it for trading. 
 Roger Ver the smart guy who does not understand that letting the timechain grow uncontrollably with no way back hurts the decentralized storage capacity of the network? No thanks. Let him have his iun with Bitcoin Cash and the handful of nodes. 
 I got introduced by 
real peers 
and 
dumb pump traders.

I followed the first group. 
 You gonna buy his book? 🙃

 LOL I didn't know about this, low key do wanna read it 😂 
 Jfc he's STILL at it? I assumed he gave up & realized his huge mistake a long time ago. Not that bitcoiners would welcome him back with open arms but he could acknowledge he was wrong. In hindsight the blocksize war was a good thing to have happened when it did, but damn that guy is stubborn. 
 
 How about a TLDR  Jameson? or link  
 "Chocked full" on the book flap.
