Title: Hatred in Crypto
Post by: somacoin on June 25, 2016, 10:40:18 PM
Seeing so much fussing, fighting and hatred in crypto really makes me wonder why people feel comfortable going on like this. Is it really so much fun to be dragged down in a continual downward spiral?

Who makes the first step for actual collaboration, actual bliss. It's not possible, is it?

People always have to fight like way back in the sandpit, do we?

It's pretty sad and it doesn't make sense. Crypto land is such a tiny little drop and it drags itself down.

I understand that it's hard to breath with some of the toxic people that are around here, but do we have to focus on that?

What are you referring to, exactly?  This forum is a breeding ground for all sorts of drama, but this place isn't the be-all, end-all of crypto.  Or are you talking about something quite different.

Crypto seems to attract young, agressive, pissed off males.  That's a very broad generalization, but it's just how I see it and I've definitely seen a lot of sniping going on amongst different crypto factions.  Maybe this is how all good things start out.

First off: You can disable signatures in "settings".
Secondly: Pharmacist's posts are intelligent and level headed.

The criminality of the world is in crypto, so don't be surprised at the paid trolls and vitriol:

The bolded part in your response is exactly what ETH/DAO is. Not to say these maniacs can't push the price much higher in the future but the con will only last so long.

The way the insiders manipulate the market with these premined tokens is explained, and note the high leverage employed which means if they run out of tokens to margin with, it is like a house-of-cards and will implode to 0 in a heartbeat:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1524111.msg15340159#msg15340159

They siphon off BTC for as long as they can and high as they can pump it, then game over and they walk away with BTC and the fools walk away with empty bags.

Also some (including the Daoattacker) allege that the USGovt + MIT (university) are complicit in the ETH pump:

Lol, definitely not always, but I like to think they are well-written and at least semi-intelligent.  However, I'm not sure if that gentleman's post was being ironic or dead serious.  It's hard to tell, especially from a NOOB.

It is more or less a zero-sum game.
One cryptocurrency gains at the expense of any other.
That is why you have this win at all costs mentality

Never mind any coin ever on just exchanges i estimate roughly..
1 BILLION dollars have been stolen from us.

And your comment now looks pretty silly don't ya think ?

Hatred ?
You get burned by escrow guy Master-P here ?

Kind funny how all that darn pesky negativity goes hand in hand
..with guys here making Millions & Billions in profit.

While they chant to you go make more Bitcoin..
as Horus used to say all the time on Cryptsy chat years ago pretty much.
The irony coming from HIM considering how Cryptsy ended up hahhaha

Hell his reputation for saying that type of crap so much makes me wonder if you OP are Horus ;)
Wouldn't surprise me knowing how much my fellow Canadian likes to hop from account to account here & all over Crypto.

Hey.. you are on a scam web-site (no rules hear against them + MANY have been posted before)
So...
Don't be "hateful"

..just go make more Bitcoin.  :D

That's not true at this point.  As Bitcoin was gaining so were many alts.  The zero sum game right now is between fiat and crypto. Fiat, stock markets, debt markets, etc will be bleeding and crypto will sky rocket.  Eventually the zero sum game will shift to crypto and that's when I win.  Cause I'm a winner.  Zing!

Because most people are just and only in it for money. They don't really support anything out of principle, freedom or whatever greater good. Money is boring man, corrupts all ;D

Is also a shit story to tell your grandchildren, how much you made some day because some country when bad damaging shitloads of people

Edit: I aint no saint, just saying

Maybe funnier: Proof-Of-Work my ass

Hatred and fighting, jealousy and anger... really sucks

I've been guilty of trolling and posting shite myself.  Some of my old posts make me facepalm indeed

Anyway most of the times I had been posting 4 entertainment purposes

~CfA~

GOOD !
I encourage this big time.
I am far more interested in driving people to say something interesting than agreeable.

The web to me is often FULL of boring people that make me want to claw my eyes out.
There REALLY is an Android APP / Game called "Watching Paint Dry" and yeah it's popular..
I'd rather go play that than listen to have the comments put online.

Anyway more on-topic.. ;)

From my perspective we have a scene with Crypto that is made up of really young people
there for it gets childish and obviously they act like angry brats (if you don't swallow their Shilling etc)
There is no minimum age requirement here guys.. kids do show up here !

Back when Doge got popular this place morphed into Crypto-4chan.. meme.jpeg's galore !
Then of course we have guys who have anger problems..

People have railed on to me about how i was all angry here lots before
and i always said to them how can you tell ?
Did i use my Angry Font ?
Then i remind them recall yesterday mocking me for typing bad and saying LOL non stop ?

It's gotten worse & wore since i showed up before the big boom in popularity..
I got here when maybe there was a hair under 50 coins.. now i would bet 5,000
So they do not "get" the criticism or why it's even posted.
They show up here late.. now ..then wonder hmm what is wrong with scamming your ass for chump change ?
Then i am like.. well ..uhhhh.. everything LOL
DUH Investards !

Angry ?
Back on my Why Doge Coin is Bad (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=461360.msg5093725#msg5093725) topic they tried to hit me with the "You mad bro" line.
Wow what a flash back LOL
It was cute of them using a 10 year old troll meme on me..
Oh look we got a rise out of 'ole Spoetnik.. they figured.
Noooooot  :D

Nope.. i just pwned all there little ass's over & over until every one of them wandered off
cashing out to buy Action-Figures, Xbox-Games & Bubble-Gum & Flat-Brim hats & Long-Boards.

Their so called "Community": went silent ..as i predicted it would (because there never was a community)
..just greedy coin hopping Kidiot Investards.

THEN.. the Doge coin dev announced he was leaving the project because of ?
A lack of "Community support" he said word for word !
And what did i say again ? LOL

Guys the only thing that ever really pissed me off in all of crypto was my 2.5 month long daily battle with..
Paypal + Bitcoin  >:(

Holy mother of god i thought i was going to explode !

In fact at the the of the day it's a zero sum game, so it's a competition and it's pretty brutal in the crypto world since it's pretty much wild wild west, so you can't come here complaining about how everyone isn't friends with each other. There are going to be fights because coins fight with each other to take the most marketcap.

@thejaytiesto
Agreed.. it comes with the territory.
Because it's how the system plays out.
In other words i have said many times conflict is inevitable.
Expect it & embrace it.
It really isn't that bad guys.

As long as people are not getting carried away with personal attacks then who cares i say.

I think it's currently at its worst. Bitcoin is completely divided into two halves and depending on what site or subreddit you're on, all the other coins/tokens are viewed as the enemy.

A coin dev's dream would be seeing his coin prevail over all the other ones and this comes at a great expense, trashing other coins. It's pretty common in the world of growing cryptos and you won't find a fitting solution to this.

How about stop making pointless coins that actually make no attempt to even be a currency?

All I see is gimmicks tacked onto a block chain..
Such as Ethereum with App's or Steem with blogging.

The effort to create a CURRENCY that beats Bitcoin ended years ago.
Now we see nothing but "scheme" cons for profit.
Schemes as in they are not even intended in the first place to be a fucking currency ::)

So yeah the scheme coin ponzi participants can all go at each other's throats for investard money for all I care.. Fuck 'em all ;D

In other words..
The so called hatred has been about the facade being exposed.
Aside from Bitcoin scaling debates maybe..
Other than that it's garbage central and pointing it out makes bag holders mad.
Good.. Blow me.

DON'T BRING PROFIT INTO THIS!

Profit did nothing wrong LOL

I have no issues with people desiring profit from reasonably legit coins..
If they make a reasonable effort at being a supporter..
vs a vulture useless NOOB account profiteer money sucking leech.

Look in the mirror.. Are you contributing anything constructive to crypto?
What have you done to further the code or adoption of an actual real digital currency?

..kidiots this is not the US crypto ICO stocks exchanger.
I am not here to give you advices on which profits coins will give you teh ROI'S.
ON THE CONTRARY I'D BE HAPPY IF YOU LEFT BROKE.

And most of you will eventually LOL

PS:
You are wrong.. I said buy Litecoin when it was sub 3 dollars and you all mouthed me off and staff trashed my topic.. So....... Uhhh what's it worth now?  8)

Stupid NOOB hah hahaha

You don't expect everyone to think the same way in the crypto world simply because its a conglomeration of people with different background with different views and even different countries and aside that's everybody is just trying to carve a niche for themselves even the one person that brought everyone together in the person of Satoshi is even still being criticised, what do you now expect of those that are now competing with each other?

This century is the century of strife setting up the golden age of the 2100s... or maybe we will not find our footing as a species until even later than that.

Point is, we are still figuring out how to adapt as a species to our newfound powers... The internet has created a lot of hunger but there is only so much food.

Crypto is a warzone with lies, deceit, and delusion abound. Everyone wants somebody to buy their coin at a higher price than they originally attained theirs for. Somebody HAS to lose on a trade, eventually. It can be mutually beneficial as long as the price goes up but it's mostly a game of hot potato.

How can you not hate a lot of people if that's the name of the game? Survival of the fittest through investor manipulation, what a fucked up species we are!
