They chose to start a VC and can back whoever they want 🤷🏽‍♂️

& I can choose to champion against their corrupting VC money which agreed to this move as it happened simultaneously.

I know that. The point of commenting on odells thread is for the rest of the plebs to realize that his coinkite products are not the FOSS we should all be aspiring to use. And has a massive honeypot risk.

he's pretty clearly not open to other ideas except what hes set his mind on. and yeah, from our perspective it doesn't look fair. just saying you cant lay all that at matts door. hes just the most visible. also fuck Coinkite. I will never buy their products. nuance.

I'm just curious, do you fully understand how successful I've been so far?! I was one of the only MFers w a decent Twitter following to alert everyone to the pitfalls we will face in the future if Open Source isn't championed with respect to holding our keys. A lot dont care bc they have idols in Bitcoin land they use as a compass or "expert". W.e they say is good. But a shit load of people went away and continue to do so that otherwise would've been Coinkite customers. I've been doing this for years now, why would I continue if I was making no headway?

I'm interested in learning. Can you point me to FOSS hardware providers that have been able to sustain their businesses long term -- talking at least 5-10 years+. Thanks in advance.

Coinkite you fucking twat, NVK said sales were always climbing and nothing to do with the move. He hates foundation passport & wanted to and I quote "put them out of business then I go back to FOSS".

@BitBox is a FOSS Hardware company (to my knowledge). (disclaimer: I don't understand everything in this thread, I'm relatively new)
