sure, I'll take someone with his experience as one input out of several.
BTC Foundation protects nothing, that's obvious, although it, or something like it is necessary to deal with the system as it exists.
We can do nothing and form nothing, however, someone has to deal with the regulators, the banks, the others who would prefer that it fail.
IMO that means some organization that has the purpose that the Foundation currently has in promoting bitcoin, but is manned by people that are actually capable of forwarding that mission without someone going to jail every other week.
You must be naïve or something... The CEO of whatever company is going to work to increase his profits, not to protect the consumers. In his interactions with regulators, banks and others, he is going to take decisions which benefits his business and not the consumers interests.
I'm not in any way naive. Using a logical fallacy such as that to discredit the other person's opinion without basis isn't really all that convincing.
Your position seems to be that anyone with any experience that's actually out in the world doing something will be corrupt. That ignores an awful lot, I think, such as proper structure, a system of oversight and checks and balances, which obviously need to be worked on over there also, etc., etc., etc.
do you have a solution/suggestion? it's fine if you don't and it's fine if your solution is to do nothing in the belief that the foundation, or anything like it is unnecessary, however, painting someone as naive because they don't share that opinion isn't actually a point of logic in any conversation, and some might say it shows quite a bit of naivete itself.
so, if you've got a solution, please propose it and support it if you can. If not, no biggie, I'm just looking to generate conversation on what's next, as there is a next. There is always a next.
