Andreas Antonopoulos has stepped down from the Bitcoin Foundation due to “Complete lack of transparency”. This isn’t the first time a member has stepped down due to the organization being secretive and shady.
Andreas’ Tweet can be viewed here. The need for removing the Bitcoin Foundation has increasingly grown as the amount of information about what they are doing has decreased. For a Transparent network of transactions, Bitcoin should have a transparent leadership. Olivier Janssen’s bounty to create software that would remove the Bitcoin foundation was successfully completed. Extensive testing will need to be done before the platform is ready to launch. It will likely cause a large amount of turmoil when the software is launched. One interesting thing to note is the fact that the software selected by Olivier Janssens will give everyone the oppurtunity to be part of the decision making process, as well as be able to see every proposed change and every step of that change as it goes along.
