How do you see the progress (value increase) of Megacoin?? Title: Re: Megacoin Post by: hilariousandco on January 10, 2014, 09:36:26 PM Is Kim Dotcom behind megacoin?? How do you see the progress (value increase) of Megacoin?? I'm not sure if Kim Dotcom is behind it. I assumed he was, but can't find any concrete info on it. I can't see the value of Megacoin increasing that much unless it gets some merchants behind it. I mean, what can you buy with it at the moment? Title: Re: Megacoin Post by: bitbillion on January 10, 2014, 09:43:36 PM Megacoin is pretty much the best looking coin at the moment
saw a interview with kim dotcom and he wants to create a kind of crypto network plus everyone knows this dude so I think if you start buying them now and wait till they go mainstream- think its promissing http://www.megacoin.co.nz/services Title: Re: Megacoin Post by: bitbillion on January 10, 2014, 09:45:49 PM heres the link to kim dotcoms recent interview on vice

At launch it looked like dodgy site, full of bad grammar and terrible graphics. Traffic was super low but a lot (6,000,000) of coins were mined, making speculators suspicious of Kimoto self mining and setting himself up to make a fortune. I don't think Kim is involved unless Dr Kimoto is his alias. Maybe Dotcom is trying to create a Satoshi alter-ego. The design does look pretty snazzy/professional, but that's about all it has going for it at the moment.

If I put some funny spokes on a wheel, I haven't reinvented it, nor have I necessarily improved on it. Maybe if I copy and paste the Mona Lisa but change the hair colour I've created a masterpiece? Don't be ridiculous; you're clutching at straws here because your coin offers nothing that half of these other crapcoins don't. And I never changed my argument. It is a blatant copy regardless of making minor changes or tweaks and any rational person can see this, but of course fanboys will be blind to this logic. And I'm not being pessimistic; I'm being realistic. What sources can I link to exactly to prove this coin is crap? It's kind of self-evident. And the 'sources' your provide aren't ways to win this argument or make your case. What exactly did you prove by giving me some links to mega and your profile and the slightly different algorithm? The burden of proof is on you to tell me what's so good or unique about this coin. So far you've given me it has this 'gravity well' (lol) and it has a good community behind it (what everybody says about their coin) and that you can buy dildos and a few other bits of crap with it. You can pretty much buy the same crap with Doge. And I never said anything about gold. Most people don't expect to use it as a currency, but you can buy a hell of a lot more stuff with gold than you can with Mega though, but that's beside the point.

Megacoin when it was released was based on the latest version of Bitcoin which no other coin devs had until that time done. Not just a copy and paste of Litecoin. Have you actually looked at the difficulty algorithm Kimoto came up with? It is clever and innovative and served its purpose perfectly of defending Megacoin against multipools - and it shows a very competent dev. So much so in-fact that Anoncoin has adopted the Kimoto difficult algorithm, also the Franko dev is also looking into implementing the KGW. I have also been informed that Memory coin has or is going to also implement it. It is not slightly different from its previous difficulty algorithm and Kimoto did not 'change something ever so slightly'. At least get your facts straight otherwise you simple show your ignorance. Every coin is in some way a copy of Bitcoin, so your argument is somewhat illogical. I suppose by your logic Litecoin is also doomed to fail. You are being pessimistic, and down right negative too. What is good about this coin: The Megacoin Developer The Megacoin team The Megacoin Community Based on latest Bitcoin code (at time of release) Innovative difficulty algorithm Listed on multiple exchanges Cryptsy, Bter, BTC38, Coinex.pw, Coinmkt.com (USD/MEC) Pre announced / Fair launch Millions of dollars worth are traded daily More innovations coming soon! Hate away, time will tell.

In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally[3][4] or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[5] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[6] I think that describes you pretty well, judging by posts you have been making in other coin threads it would seem you don't like altcoins, any of them! So why bother posting here - just to provoke a response? Show me one post where you have been positive and / or constructive recently?

So why bother posting here - just to provoke a response? Show me one post where you have been positive and / or constructive recently? You should check my posts a bit more thoroughly if you want positive /constructive discussions, and I've been constructive here, you just don't agree with my points because you're blinded by your own interests. And I don't particularly care for most alts, especially when they offer little to nothing in terms of innovation. And I don't start arguments - this was a discussion, but as usual with fanboys, once they can't fight their corner or back up their arguments with anything more than my coin has a good dev/community/website, then the troll accusations come out. If I'm a troll (which I'm not), then stop feeding me. This is a discussion and I'll continue the discussion for as long as you do, but maybe you should take your fellow fanboys advice and stop wasting time because I doubt I'll change your mind nor will you change mine, but I'm happy to continue And here's some definitions for you too: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=fanboy Title: Re: Megacoin Post by: ethought on January 15, 2014, 05:15:09 PM And I don't start arguments - this was a discussion, but as usual with fanboys, once they can't fight their corner or back up their arguments with anything more than my coin has a good dev/community/website, then the troll accusations come out. Okay, fanboy and troll accusations aside. What other argument is there to back up an altcoin other than 'good dev/community/website'? Genuinely interested to know what you would qualify as good back up to arguing the positives of a coin. Title: Re: Megacoin Post by: KeyserSozeMC on January 15, 2014, 05:18:29 PM Give him 1 MEC, he'll shut it.
He's not worth more than 1 MEC. Title: Re: Megacoin Post by: yatsey87 on January 15, 2014, 05:23:02 PM Clearly there are two different opinions here from polar opposites and both are valid. I wouldn't really call Megacoin a crapcoin, but the website and design is obviously influenced by Mega. I actually thought Megacoin was part of Kim Dot com's Mega-brand up until only recently. Is it 100% defintily not anything to do with Kim Dotcom? Maybe he's just trying to create a bit of Satoshi like alure to himself. If it's not anything to do with him and he wasn't involved in legal battles of his own, he probably would've had grounds to sue.

Genuinely interested to know what you would qualify as good back up to arguing the positives of a coin. I think this is a perfect example of why most alts are pure crap and are completely superfluous. I don't know what would make a good coin; if I did I'd create one, but you can't just say the same old things people say for their coins and then that's what makes them so special and worthwhile, because everybody says that and it usually turn s out to be nothing but bs and hot air. Do you know how many people I see making these same points everyday? Earthcoin, Frozencoin, Giftcoin, Dogecoin blah blah. Do any of them offer something truly unique or live up to their promises? Give him 1 MEC, he'll shut it. He's not worth more than 1 MEC. Ouch, that stung. *sarcasm*. How old are you, 12? Kinda contradictory too. I'm not worth 1MEC yet 1MEC will apparently buy my silence? I wouldn't really call Megacoin a crapcoin, but the website and design is obviously influenced by Mega. I actually thought Megacoin was part of Kim Dot com's Mega-brand up until only recently. This was my point in the first place, but obviously when you criticise a fanboy his feelings get hurt and they get unnecessarily defensive then accuse you of being a troll for having a different opinion.

So apart from being the first to introduce a new hashing algorithm, what makes Litecoin or Primecoin for that matter worthy coins apart from 'dev/community/website' etc.? And while I do agree that there are many clearly questionable coins around how can you claim that arguments used to promote a coins positives '...usually turn s out to be nothing but bs and hot air'? Most altcoins have been around less than a year (and the ones you quoted less than a month). Are you arguing that crap coins that use the same arguments (good 'dev/community/website' etc.) invalidate any legitimate coins that also use the same arguments?

I think if one does well so will the other and vice versa if you just follow the patterns. Im still leaning toward WDC though because of Scharmbeck but that could certainly change. Honestly I see both of them doing well this year.
