Roger Ver, an early investor and ardent promoter of Bitcoin (BTC)which earned him the nickname “Jesus of Bitcoin”, has resurfaced on Twitter after a year and endorsed Dogecoin (DOGE) in an interview, stating that he prefers it for payments over the world’s largest cryptocurrency.
In an interview with Bloomberg, the founder of Bitcoin.com said he was a fan of memecoin because of its fast transaction times and low fees:
“Dogecoin is significantly better, cheaper and more reliable [que bitcoin]. If I had to pick three contenders for the world’s dominant cryptocurrency, it would be Doge, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash.”
See also took some time in the interview to express his support to “Honorary CEO of Dogecoin”, Elon Musk, for the acquisition of Twitter.
“It will definitely make Twitter more attractive”Ver said. “I’m very, very grateful that Musk is out there criticizing censorship.”
Although Ver was a bitcoin advocate for years, he now spends his days as a Bitcoin Cash (BCH) evangelist.the altcoin that forked from Bitcoin following a dispute over block sizes.
A video posted in March on Ver’s YouTube channel shows him and his entourage welcoming merchants and taxi drivers to use Bitcoin Cash as a payment method. preferred in Saint-Martin.
See says that Bitcoin Cash is the true vision of the creator of bitcoinSatoshi Nakamoto, and despite all his defense of the cryptocurrency, states that he does not fully agree with BCH:
“I am definitely a multi-crypto whale, I have always had a wide and varied basket of cryptocurrencies. I was never a bitcoin or Bitcoin Cash maximalist.”
Returning to Twitter, Ver wasted little time drawing attention to cryptocurrency first principles with his second tweet after his hiatus on Thursday. He said that custodial wallets like those used by traders interacting with centralized exchanges would cause bitcoin to lose a “key revolutionary property”.
If regular people are all using custodial wallets, Bitcoin will have lost a key property that made it so revolutionary.
