Hasley Minor at bitreserve has shot his company in the foot.  Bitcoiners now hate bitreserve.  They are the target user base!  They have expressed their outrage here with over 100 comments:

It's time for the real bitGOLD to take centre stage.

Here is my comment on the matter:

Lol his post is kind of right, but that is a brilliantly bad marketing move on their part.

Did someone just whisper "partner with BTS instead..."??

 :D :D :D

I wouldn't say the "CEO of BitShares" (phun intended) has never made "bad PR" ..
But that particular message (proof of waste) has been communicated by bytemaster alot better .. such as in: "Bitcoin security costs $600M a year" ..

I don't know if the title of the article has changed... but the title actually says :    In Five Years, The Term “Bitcoin” Won’t Exist…And That’s Okay

Ha, I got a notification in my email from Bitreserve that the article was posted about the same time they took it down.
