War egos
We are facing a war of egos at tweet interposed, and above all, in public. Such a confrontation is common for the new generation, but it’s even more appealing when it comes to two big names in technology like Elon Musk and Jackson Palmer.
Their exchanges, if we may use that term, began with an interview given by Jackson Palmer. He is one of the co – founders of Dogecoin (DOGE), which has a update looking forward to this summer. Australian media Crikey conducted that interview. Jackson Palmer was promoting his new podcast titled Griftonomics, before it was launched into the crypto industry.
Among other things, he mentioned that he was looking forward to the end of the era of cryptocurrencies, but also some direct peaks for Elon Musk. He called Musk a comma and a liar, promising societal revolutions that he will never be able to deliver. Following these statements, Elon Musk could not refrain from responding to him on Twitter. And this is where the real duel begins.
A Python script created by Jackson Palmer will be the subject of their sweet exchanges. On the one hand, Palmer claims that he created a revolutionary Python script to automatically fight robots, and that Musk did not even know how to read or use it. Musk, on the other hand, claims that his young children would be able to develop a much better script than this draft.
Spicy? Yes, especially with the ego. For all of them. All of these exchanges were conducted openly, through their official Twitter accounts, open to the eyes and opinions of all social network users. It’s interesting to note that Elon Musk took to setting up his Twitter accounts on crypto content. Recently, it’s precisely with another Dogecoin co – founder, Billy Markus, that the debate has heated up.
The letter was sent from crypto skeptics to Washington
It’s done. Jackson Palmer, despite his status as co – founder of Dogecoin, has publicly stated that he wants the era of cryptocurrencies to end.
It didn’t take long to then turn on the light on the so-called skeptical cryptocurrencies. Recently, there was widespread talk about this community of skeptical cryptos about a long letter sent to Washington. Or directly to the President of the United States and to the legislators of America.
The Financial Times reported the information. According to the newspaper, this letter was signed by almost 26 computer scientists, academics and technology bloggers. Their positions are fully visible anti-crypt. In this letter, they urge for example to take a critical approach to the innovative fictitious character of crypto assets accordingly. Another example is their desire to resist pressure from financiers and lobbyists in the sector.
This is not the first attempt by crypto skeptics to hear their claims. However, with such a letter sent directly to the heart of American power in Washington, they knew how to commemorate the occasion. In addition, they provoked reactions of all kinds, among all and among the largest players in the crypto universe.
When Vitalik Buterin, the creator of Ethereum, enters the fray
As if Elon Musk and Jackson Palmer did not have a reputation as public figures, a third person adds fuel to the fire. Vitalik Buterin, creator of Ethereum. He also took over his Twitter account for that purpose. Why? Just to comment on the crypto skeptical letter sent to Washington.
Vitalik Buterin is surprised of the participation of Cory Doctorow with this letter. Cory Doctorow is a famous British-Canadian tech blogger, but also a friend of Buterin’s for several years. In 2018, he delivered a speech entitled “Decentralization, democratization or death” at DevCon. Which none other than the annual Ethereum developer conference.
Le a feeling of misunderstanding, even betrayal, Buterin therefore openly expressed his thoughts. According to him, it is true that the beginning of crypto only brought together decentralized enthusiasts. However, like any successful growing industry, it reminds us that success comes inevitably with new profiles that are only interested in profit and money. However, he recalls that this does not in any way define what the crypto industry as a whole represents.
We can tell he is right on a great point. The negatives are easy to express. However, focusing our efforts together to collaborate and improve things is a big step forward.
