Bitcoin (BTC) May Go to Zero If This Happens, Says Bitcoin Veteran

Bitcoin.org’s anonymous operator, Cobra, has warned that the cryptocurrency may collapse and go to zero due to developers leaving the project or contributing less because of legal risk or burnout. Such a black swan event could kill the cryptocurrency industry for good, according to the Bitcoin O.G. “You will all lose everything,” he said. Cobra’s comments followed the departure of Andrew Chow, Bitcoin Core’s long-time leader, reducing the group’s size to five from six. They highlight concerns outlined in a recent story by the Wall Street Journal about the impact of burnout and legal threats to developers of projects such as Bitcoin. While Cobra claims that the WSJ piece isn’t “the best article,” he admits that many Bitcoin developers are leaving the community.
