Title: [sarcasm] Solving the pressing problems of our times by launching alt coins Post by: Peter R on November 15, 2013, 05:46:13 AM In the spirit voluntarism, I propose we solve the pressing problems in crypto-currencies (black-lists, taint, fungibility, inflation, etc) by simply launching multiple alt coins and see which one wins. Below are some ideas just to get the ball rolling. Feel free to contribute!
FBI-coin / taint-coin: With this coin, you get to help the FBI solve crimes!! You'll never forget your first "visit." Fed-coin: This coin is great because the wise people in control can increase the supply whenever they want. We will all have so many! ECB-coin: With this coin, you wake up one morning and 20% are missing. NSA-coin: Every NSA coin comes with its own virus that hands over control to one of your webcams or microphones! Microsoft coin: This coin hardly works and people still buy it.

MikeHearCoin LOL Title: Re: [sarcasm] Solving the pressing problems of our times by launching alt coins Post by: Peter R on November 15, 2013, 06:04:25 AM :D MikeHearCoin LOL It took me an embarrassingly-long time to get that joke. But it's a much better name for the NSA-coin--very stealth :) Title: Re: [sarcasm] Solving the pressing problems of our times by launching alt coins Post by: btc4ever on November 15, 2013, 06:13:03 AM Funny.
But I do wish someone would launch a coin that respects privacy such as a coin that uses libzerocoin, or a coin with coinjoin built in. I could be wrong, but I think they would become popular, especially if they could be merge-mined. And hopefully spur the bitcoin devs into making private transactions and fungibility top priority as well.

Title: Re: [sarcasm] Solving the pressing problems of our times by launching alt coins Post by: blablahblah on November 15, 2013, 08:54:24 AM Bitcoin -- a cesspit of criminal minds that are terrified of two things: 1) government shutting them down, 2) any attempt to create alt-coins that risks diluting their deflationary profits. Would you like to make an altcoin? Just follow this guideline:
first you will be ignored. then you will be laughed at. then shitloads of criminal behaviour will happen to try and take out your threat. then Bitcoin wins. Did I get the humour right? ;D |
