Roger Ver And Jesse Powell Bid Adieu To Market Manipulation Suit

by

Roger Ver aka Bitcoin Jesus, the founder of the prominent cryptocurrency exchange Bitcoin.com along with Jesse Powell, the CEO of Kraken with a few others had recently filed a motion seeking the dismissal of a market manipulation suit that they were hit with back in 2018.

The CEO of Bitmain, Jihan Wu, Bitcoin Cash developers Shammah Chancellor and Jason Cox as well as Powell and Roger Ver was accused of manipulating the market just before the network-wide upgrade of Bitcoin Cash. While this complaint was filed by the United American Corp [UAC] in 2018, an amended version of the complaint was recently updated. However, this lawsuit did not stand in court as it was dismissed citing lack of evidence.

Roger Ver Tackles Lawsuit

UAC’s initial complaint did not make it following lack of personal jurisdiction as well as failure to state a claim. However, the court suggested that UAC could present an amended version for the case to prolong. While the crypto platform went on to do so as advised, UAC alleged that the accused had employed mercenary mining power to surge the hashing power of the crypto exchange, Bitcoin.com.

To this amended lawsuit, Chris McAliley, the U.S. Magistrate Judge of the Southern District of Florida decided to incline towards dismissing the complaint based on the lack of evidence provided with respect to the case. McAliley added,

“The Court considers first whether the Complaint satisfies the pleading requirements of the first element, conspiracy. It does not. As noted, the Complaint must state facts — not conclusions — that plausibly suggest a conspiracy.”

The Judge, after evaluating the circumstantial evidence provided by the plaintiffs revealed, “the court concludes that it lacks facts that create a reasonable expectation that discovery will reveal evidence of illegal agreement.”

Several members of the community were happy about this news and were seen congratulating Roger Ver as well as Jesse Powell for their latest victory.

Over the years, several followed suit as Bitcoin Cash entailed a block size larger than that of Bitcoin.

The tiff between Bitcoin maximalists and the evangelists of other coins is not news, the Bitcoin Cash community seems to have added another person to their list.

‘Bitcoin Cash Is Great For Online Payments’, Suggests Kim Dotcom

German entrepreneur, Kim Dotcom sprang to fame after rolling out Megaupload as he bagged in millions of dollars. After trying his hand at crypto and failing, Kim Dotcom seemed to be joining the Bitcoin Cash community. He affirmed the same in his latest tweet.

This tweet triggered several members of the crypto community who began questioning Kim Dotcom’s latest move. The German entrepreneur pointed out that Bitcoin Cash functioned on low fees and was easy to use while being secure. While the Bitcoin Cash community and Roger Ver have time and again dissed Bitcoin for being “slow with high fees and unreliable transactions”, Kim Dotcom seemed to have joined the BCH gang. However, he suggested that he chose BCH over BTC as he considers BCH “great for online payments”, while BTC “is great to store value.”

Furthermore, Kim Dotcom went on to explain that he intends to bring in more people to the community through his “innovations, with my contact network and the incredible power of genius marketing”, he added.

The entrepreneur received backlash for his latest move but suggested that his stance was a result of the demands and necessities of users and vendors from the digital verse. A Twitter user even went on to ask the entrepreneur if Roger Ver had paid him money for this endorsement. To which Kim Dotcom replied,

“He sent me $1000 in BCH via text message to try the Bitcoin.com wallet. I then sent $500 in BCH to a friend via text message because I wanted him to see how easy this is.”

Back in September 2020, Tim Draper was subject to immense resentment for endorsing BCH. However, the venture capitalist affirmed that the endorsement was a result of a hack.

The repercussions of exhibiting support for certain coins seemed to be getting out of hand as Kim Dotcom suggested that healthy competition is good for the crypto-verse and those who have been preaching Bitcoin maximalism aren’t doing the king coin a favor. He added,
