“Bitcoin did have great potential, but it is damaged beyond repair. … Bitcoin was born with serious flaws. … it has been compared to a Ponzi scheme. … It's time to admit that the current Bitcoin needs to be scrapped … bear in mind what it is that makes some venture capitalists Bitcoin zealots: pure greed.
