What he became famous for :
Gained wide popularity due to early investment in bitcoin, as a result of which he became a cryptomillionaire. Defends the rights of Bitcoin Cash (considers the coin to be true Bitcoin). Roger Ver was one of the first popular investors to make his fortune by investing in bitcoin before the start of its active growth phase. It is known that the businessman previously worked on his own online store MemoryDealers.com (founded in 1999), which managed to go international under his leadership.
One of the chapters in the life of a bitcoin evangelist is about politics. Ver for a long time tried to popularize his ideas about the need to change the rules of world trade, but all his attempts to enter power ended in failure. The election campaigns lasted until 2002 - it was during this period of time that Roger was arrested on suspicion of selling weapons through online stores. During the investigation, it was revealed that the businessman was selling a special explosive that farmers use to scare away animals. As a punishment, the court sentenced him to ten months in prison.
For political reasons, Roger Ver decided to leave the United States (2006). America has allegedly failed to provide him with the freedom he needs. Japan was chosen as the new jurisdiction, and already in 2014 he renounced US citizenship in favor of a new home. Subsequently, because of this decision, the businessman had a lot of problems associated with the inability to visit America to participate in all kinds of crypto conferences.
Head of "cryptocurrency"
Roger Ver's main work in the field of cryptocurrencies began in 2011. He has invested the funds accumulated through doing business in a number of projects, among which were BitPay and Ripple. Carried away by the idea, he independently organized a crypto community and began to promote the ideas of digital currencies to the masses. Probably, his perception was affected by the move to Japan - a country where bitcoin received the status of a legal financial instrument earlier than others.
The Bitcoin.com project, thanks to Roger, received a second wave of popularity, was born in 2014. Many users mistakenly believe that this resource is the official platform of the first cryptocurrency.
Roger Ver earned the nickname "Bitcoin Jesus" due to his activity in the field of promoting ideas of decentralization and cryptocurrencies. He owed his "middle name" to the co-founder of the Bitcoin Foundation, Peter Wessenes. Head of "Bitcoin Cash (BCH)" With the growth of the Bitcoin network, the coin began to experience scaling problems. One of the possible solutions, supported by Roger Ver, was to increase the block size, but this step was taken with hostility by many members of the crypto community.
Initially, the businessman decided in every possible way to support projects that promised to implement an increase in the block, but soon, seeing their insolvency, he initiated his own - Bitcoin Cash. With the advent of the project, the block size has grown to 8 MB (versus one in the original chain). This decision divided society into two camps: supporting Bitcoin Cash as an opportunity to improve scalability, and users who do not want to reckon with such code changes. Roger Ver, in turn, decided to defend the right to exist of BCH, as a "true bitcoin", which, in his opinion, is fully consistent with the precepts of Satoshi Nakamoto. With the advent of the new "true" bitcoin, the crypto community began to show negative attitude towards the businessman. The reason for the heat of relations was the aggressive methods of promoting Bitcoin Cash, which, according to the majority, misled its potential users.
Bitcoin Cash fork
meeting the antagonist In 2018, the story of the Bitcoin fork and the subsequent birth of the scandalous Bitcoin Cash coin took new turns. After the next release of the coin client update, which introduced the ability to work through atomic swaps and smart contracts as add-ons, Roger Ver met with a wave of community criticism. Opponents of the proposed changes, led by the self-proclaimed "Satoshi", began to defend the ineffectiveness of the decisions made by Vera, basing their position on the fact that the businessman allegedly "violated Nakamoto's precepts." The lack of a unified decision between the parties led to the initiation of a hard fork, which subsequently split Bitcoin Cash in half.
The two new coins are Bitcoin ABC, backed by Roger Ver, and Bitcoin SV, backed by the antagonist Craig Wright. Each of the businessmen attracted the maximum of their capabilities to organize the corresponding computing power to support their coins. The result of the initiation of the war was the colossal losses of miners.
As of November 21, the theater of war continues to expand: Craig Wright has pledged to carry out a 51 attack against Bitcoin ABC. At the same time, Roger Vera's supporters are confident in the impossibility of destabilizing their own project and further victory.
