There is no shortage of controversial opinions on Bitcoin these days. Contrary to what people may expect, not all of these opinions come from outside of cryptocurrency. Roger Ver, a person who has been tweeting some strange things lately, has made yet another disturbing statement. In his opinion, the Bitcoin Genesis block was an ICO. It is impossible to compare these two, though, as no money was raised to generate 21 million coins out of thin air.<\/b><\/p>\nRoger Ver Makes No Sense Whatsoever<\/b><\/h2>\n
Roger Ver<\/span><\/a> has made quite a few strange statements these past few months. His most recent tweet is by far one of the weirdest things we have seen to date, though. Ver claims Bitcoin had the first ICO, called the Genesis block. It is a very strange idea to compare Bitcoin with cryptocurrency ICOs, though. The Genesis Block created Bitcoin, but there was no fundraising or crowdfunding involved. Moreover, not all 21 million coins were created in one go either.<\/span><\/p>\n Bitcoin had the first ICO. — Roger Ver (@rogerkver) June 15, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
