Knowing a person online for years, getting vibes of honesty, participating in
interesting projects, gets involved with blockchain development, starts their
own blockchain, but maintains a mindset of ownership.
Furthermore, colors of authoritarian noise came along the way as well, slowly
evolving from a "I know better" perspective, not giving a dime about others'
feelings.
This seems to be understood as determination by that person. So it went on for
years, hidden behind the facade of a good/noble person.
The outcomes of looking at their work though, are not hidden that much. The said
determination made the first peer to peer network to be tainted by such mindset
that the architecture of it is, since 2018, an inequality network. To add more
in that, the work was never audited as it should. Cryptographic algorithms
accompanying the software were written from scratch, breaching in silence the
trust of the user-base.
But for all the above, even if anyone spoke up about those misconceptions and
detouring from the original idea, they did not reach my ears or eyes.
During the past month, the said person stroke once more, this time, even more
methodically and aware of what he was about to do. Taking back previous claims
about the direction of the project which in his words, was community driven.
A famous quote applies here for the fellow person: "Dictators free their selves,
but they enslave the people". In such situation though, with humanity working
collectively towards freedom and equality, the communities' backlash was and
still is tremendous. A thing that in no way was expected by the actor.
As every dictator, he opposed his own people, trying to silence them and forced
them to exile. Before getting in my hands proofs on chain and commit histories,
trying to convince he is most likely on the wrong, I met up a new character, a
relentless one that also moved quickly to oppose me as well. Even in such
position that I was quickly put in exile as well. I did my best to remind the
person about values and such, but apparently, when liquidity becomes the new
belief system, nothing really matters.
This whole situation left me angered. Not anger towards the person but towards
me, getting uncomfortable with my own decisions to trust not the person, but
their code. A code that the person sees as his legacy, a classic dictator's
mindset, but even with my little experience I can understand that it is
effectively dangerous to run. A code base that for more than 10 years is
depending on an unstable release of a library which was receiving updates
tactically and had many stable releases since then.
That would be a more honest take on his partners presentation, particularly on
the session "Meet CJD". The ID of this post will be included as a reference, as
well with a date of posting, in my personal not decentralized blog feed that you
can find at https://git.kaotisk-hund.com/01-NEWS/.git/tree/news shortly after
this is posted here, in pkteerium.xyz, operated by the said person.
Thanks for reading and be always alarmed,
Kaotisk Hund
PS: I should clarify that when referring to "CJD", I mean "Cartman James
DeLisle". Any similarities with real people is unintentional and the whole post
is a work of fiction dealing with philosophical questions and values.
