The narrative that we need to "stop funding infrastructure and focus on adoption" is stupid.

Bitcoin Cash is a diverse ecosystem where community contributors can focus on many different sub-communities:

• The people creating memes, sockpuppets, graphs and charts are one area of the community. Reddit and Twitter shitposters, basically.

• The people developing infrastructure are another area. ABC, BCH Node, BU, BCHD, etc

• The miners are their own area.

• Devs creating useful trustless apps are another area. Open Bazaar, Crescent, CashFusion, Full stack.cash, Memo, etc

• Services and businesses are another area. Bitcoin.com, Purse.io, AnyHedge, Cryptophyl, Bitpay, Read.cash, be.cash, etc

• Real world groups and meetups are "on the streets" bringing the technology to the people through real life gatherings. Townsville AUS, BCH House Venezuela, etc

We can (and we ARE) pursuing adoption strategies and pushing infrastructure features/enhancements.

These sub-communities all exist simultaneously without subtracting from the others. In fact, they enhance each other because of the cross-pollination of ideas and funding.

Reminder:The main characteristic that made bitcoin (btc) blows up in the first place is being used as permissionless payment system. This is what created global demand for it...to USE it as global P2P cash to pay for stuff & services. Bitcoin has always meant to be a medium of exchange.

Who are those people on the right side? I know many people who are using the left side but none on the right side. Who is ready to pay big money to wait in line? Someone is controlling something.

Have there been discussions to make the IFP palatable?

I initially thought it was a great idea, I actually was one of the first ones to cheer on it. Then, I read the execution details and quickly disenchanted. The second round wasn't much better. That being said, I am still under the impression there could be a way to make this work.

How about combining the Flipstarter and the IFP? For example, there could be a quaterly vote where users actually vote with their money on projects (time horizon of those project could be longer). There could be versions of the projects (time and budget). Then, at the end of the quarter, the IFP tops up the top 5 projects.

I know, I know, I KNOW, this is a crude idea. Main criticism is how to make sure the IFP funds do not get Theymos'ed.

Would there be a way to have the funds directly transfered to a smart contract?

And why aren't the miners directly funding the devs? There could be a healthy funding competition between miners and the users!

I just bought a stack of BTC and Ethereum?

So I did some research off of reddit and bought into Ethereum and BTC last month. ROI so far is positive and I am feeling good about my investment. I then came onto the Reddit forums and everyone in this forum seems to hate BTC? I have been in crypto for years but off the forums as I don't find them particularly useful when investing in Crypto (Too much noise).

So why is the community so combative and the info from forum to forum so different?
