Bitcoin's founding block 16th anniversary: 2013 news center event triggered community divisions
16th Anniversary of the Bitcoin Genesis Block: A Look Back at the Controversy in the 2013 Bitcoin.org News Center
In April 2013, the Bitcoin.org website launched a "Bitcoin News Center" page, listing some Bitcoin experts available for media contact. This seemingly trivial list sparked intense controversy, involving broader questions about the use of Bitcoin, development strategies, and who the real Bitcoin users are.
The controversy stems from Roger Ver and Jon Matonis being excluded from the contact list. Some Bitcoin developers believe that these two are unsuitable to serve as media spokespersons due to political stance controversies or criminal records. This decision sparked intense debate within the community.
Supporters believe that Ver and Matonis are the most professional and persuasive spokespeople for Bitcoin, and excluding them is a form of censorship. Opponents are concerned that their political views may negatively affect the public image of Bitcoin.
The debate quickly evolved into a broader discussion about the nature of Bitcoin. Some people believe that Bitcoin is a revolutionary movement and should not shy away from its rebellious and anarchistic roots. Others hope that Bitcoin can present itself in a more moderate and mainstream image.
Ultimately, the controversial list was canceled. Andreas Antonopoulos created a new website bitcoinpresscenter.org, providing a longer and more diverse list of Bitcoin experts. This might be a better outcome, avoiding ongoing disputes and aligning more with the spirit of Bitcoin's decentralization.
This brief news center experiment shows that establishing a centralized authority structure within the Bitcoin ecosystem is challenging. It reflects the internal divisions within the Bitcoin community regarding the project's vision and development direction, a divergence that has persisted to this day. Nevertheless, Bitcoin itself continues to grow and thrive amidst these controversies.
