It seems that the BCH address that Ver shared was created specifically for this tweet because it was empty before.
Ver’s Twitter followers didn’t seem too keen on it.. At the time of broadcast, only 0.206 BCH of $250 was sent to the wallet shared by Ver. Some of his followers expressed their hesitation that this was bribing a public official.
Ver has been an ardent supporter of Bitcoin Cash since its inception.. He has used his industry influence to promote BCH on multiple occasions. Bitcoin.com, owned by Ver, was showing BCH as “Bitcoin” and real Bitcoin as “Bitcoin Core” until earlier this month.
