John macafee also said btcp is the best bitcoin fork ever and offers the best privacy technology!

https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=m55naihyc8E

John Macafee had the basis for the statement he made. everyone can say anything about what they think. I think I agree with the statement

Rather, it will make Zcash than fork bitcoin. I do not see anything like this than this coin can conquer the market.

There are lots of coins already who do have that best privacy specially Monero i dont think any forked bitcoin would really do always better than on bitcoin itself or even into other existing altcoins in the market.
Id rather believe hes already shilling out this coin because his one of the bag holders. What yah think?

Do you realize how rich and powerful macafee is lol he doesn’t lose bets ever! People can hate him all they want but the fact is that he is one of the most successful richest and smartest on the planet. His haters are a bunch of no body’s

Really crazy that John Mcaffee start to support Bitcoin private. I think it will go to the moon sooner or later, because privacy is really imporant for the future. People are always scared of giving data to other people. With private TXes you can not track them!

I some what agree with mcafee, bitcoin private is definitely a quality project and one of the best forks bitcoin has seen yet, i only doubt the future of all privacy projects as governments all around the world does not seem to like and accept the privacy coins.

Another joke from mcafee if you consider he is as smartest people on the planet.
Did you remember about this? https://www.theverge.com/2018/4/2/17189880/john-mcafee-bitcoin-cryptocurrency-twitter-ico
I could say "He is really good as a businessman because he can take any advantages from ico environment through used his popularity among the crypto audiences. 

BTCP is one of my investment options this month, I'm interested because BTCP price is falling and also the improvement of their project but I doubt BTCP will replace monero in the near future because monero has solid communities

John Macafee is a joke, if you are willing to pay him he will come out and support your token sale and i really do not bother what the says, i never heard him say logical things and the only thing that can be heard from him is speculative things. There are several anonymous coins in the market but Monero is the only coin accepted in major dark web markets and that is the only use of Monero.  :P

come on mcAfee, are you kidding me? are you dreaming? there are many anonymous coins available today, but are they already eligible to replace monero? I do not think so.

Not surprising to see Mcaffee shilling yet another shitcoin (this time a shitfork riding on the Bitcoin name), doesn't he get paid around $100k to shill cryptocurrencies? what a joke. At least the early BTCP holders might get a nice pump in the price thanks to Mcaffee's comments.

But it's very unlikely that BTCP is going to replace Monero, mainly because Monero is a well-accepted privacy coin in the cryptocurrency community, it's also privacy coin that over the past few years has had a surge in adoption not only in the darknet markets but in the underground trade as well.

I agree. John Macafee get paid for promoting a coin. He does not care about the coin itself.

Exactly, John McAfee would support any project he gets financial gains from. Therefore, I don't think that his support is a good indicator whether a project will or will not be successful.

This wasn’t a paid shilling confirmed. It wasn’t a tweet either, it was an interview in where he expressed his opinion. He is also an extremely high end software developer who knows what projects have solid coders. You can hate macafee and btcp all you want if that makes you feel better or you can do some research. I’ve been a programmer for 8 years so if you feel the need to talk seriously about a project let’s talk. I can tell you right now that btcp developers are top notch and this project is massively undervalued for what it offers.

You guys do know that McAfee takes money to shill a coin, right? You only need to pay $100k starting price, and then his team looks at your project and if they feel it is validated, then they go ahead and approve the shilling. Remember also McAfee shilled Verge as the top privacy coin, and not this weird coin I've never heard of before. Too many links, too many shills. Go ahead and drink the hype, but don't be crying when it all falls apart.

I  don't believe anything what John Mcafee says. Probably he has a large portion of BTCP and he is hoping that this coin will be pumped so he can have some nice profit.

Who is John Mcafee? I don't never take his thoughts regarding crypto serios because he is not different from other big speculators who say bitcoin is scam and buy when it crashes.

BTCP is pump and dump shit Mcafee get paid 100k to promote anything.

Don't trust even a word from John McAfee :). He's paid to promote for ICO projects and cryptocurrency. You should know about TRX and a lot of ICO project promoted by this guy :). I don't trust him because all ICO projects he promoted are shit and TRX is also seem like a scam cryptocurrency :))

John McAffee is a dumbass imho. I think he bought into Bitcoin Private, then pumped it with this interview with goal to dump this news spike. I would not trust him and I think more that Bitcoin Private could become better Zcash, but not better Bitcoin.

He does have influence and pull in the cryptosphere; wonder how much this will make make BTCP bump.

I’ve noticed many experts have been talking about the importance of privacy coins lately. I’m willing to bet that most new investors will go straight to bitcoin private, just for the name alone. On top of that,  many experienced firms who understand the underlying technology will know that btcp offers highest quality privacy features. As a programmer myself I can tell how well written the coding is. 99% of the investors here Don’t have a clue of the underlying coding that these cryptos are built on.

McAfee can be paid to do anything. It has been mentioned before that he offers altcoin endorsement services or crypto related retweets/tweets for monetary rewards, so anything that comes out of his mouth can and most probably is sponsored content that can't be trusted.

I'm not saying that BTCP doesn't have a future, it probably does, and prices can climb during a bull market. But McAfee in my opinion is simply not a good source of info.

Also personally I'm still holding my XMR simply because I don't like fork coins, and BTCP doesn't have the community or reputation that XMR has.

He is associated with developing the most successful antivirus software in the world. He received a bachelor's degree in mathematics in 1967 from Roanoke College, which subsequently awarded him an honorary Sc.D. degree in 2008. One of the best programmer/software engineer’s ever and you idiots are fucking clueless. What have you done in your lifetime??

It is funny that people are talking this guy serious, this is someone that said he is paid to tweet about projects, for me I take his statement with a pinch of salt. There is no way BTCP is replacing Monero, the technology behind Monero is still the best in Privacy coins followed closely by Zcash

Are you a software engineer? Or are you just a mindless sheep following the herd?

Do you have any idea about how advertisement works, he was an developer is the apt sentence, he developed something in the past and i do not see any new projects he released in the past decade, i was a software developer in the past but the technology is changing rapidly, i am not sure about BTCP or its development team.

It has been confirmed by many experts that BTCP has the best coding and best tech for privacy coins.

replace monero, whats the target price? https://www.coingecko.com/en/price_charts/bitcoin-private/usd
or in terms of utiliti?

I think around $1000 is reasonable for what it offers.

Funnny how despite this huge shill attempt, BTCP price has stayed the same. In fact, it's even at par to one of it's all time lows.

First no exchanges support it, now this constant dumpinng.. Someone must really hate the BitcoinPrivate project or the team behind it. I would normally say this could be a good buying opportunity but with all thats happening, i don't know what to think anymore.

It just means its an excellent opportunity to get in cheap.

Yes, nowis the best time to buy btcp. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime. You just need to do your own research and don’t follow the mindless sheep trolls.

Altcoin buzz is loading up on BTCP

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=15qfFG-x554

I think I agree averagely with John Macafee on btcp replacing monero because bitcoin private is a potential project and one of the best forks bitcoin has. Btcp has the possibility of replacing monero in the nearest future if it maintains it's stability.

care to explain who are the experts that you were talking about ?
also it would be nice if you can shows us the link to them or source or something like that,so we can read it and 'understand' it very well like you did.
tried to find it but failed.
seems like i missed something here.

BTCP dev interviewed by crypto0 at consensus yesterday! The community is growing at rapid pace. Once this market breaks free from the bear market, btcp is going to explode! Privacy is quickly becoming a hot topic.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2oyG6g5KGAU&feature=youtu.be&t=2528

PS. Don’t feed the trolls :)

BTCP may be a good privacy coin and so are many others. It is hard to know which one will be top in future. Mcafee has a history of pumping plenty of bad ICOs for money so cannot trust his statements.

I thought he was saying this about Verge at the time when he was promoting this coin and pumped hard. He was making ridicoulos claims, such as Verge will be worth 10$ to make more people buy it, so i don't really trust the coins that he is recommending.

I guess this means he has BTCP, lol. It's a really naive perspective though. BTCP and Monero can perfectly go on simultaneously, but btcp just has the better privacy tech behind it.

He's someone who sells his tweets to the highest bidder. How can you trust someone to be somewhat objective when that's their normal mode of operating? What are his credentials for being someone to listen to?

John McAfee endorsing (or not endorsing) a given coin will probably not matter one way or another since no one takes him seriously.

Good, men. I agreed. So strange to hear from such persona any recommendation and predictions about any coin. I don't trust him. And his opinion does not mean anything

After this news: https://cointelegraph.com/news/john-mcafee-charges-105000-per-tweet-for-promoting-cryptocurrency-projects
I don't think we can trust what he says. 105K $ for a single post, come on...

If he gets money it will support it, plain as simple, even if now he says the contrary:

Anyway BTCP is definetely a good fork, more scalable than BTC thanks to higher block limit and with privacy features from ZCL. Like others here I think sooner or later it will moon. Adoption will be a very important factor.

I have a good feeling about btcp next week, I smell a new exchange listing hunt hint lol

Binance might be listing btcp this week, call me a shill whatever.

Whoever misses out on this coin doesn’t know what they’re doing in crypto!

Mcafee is taking over

Btcp organic growth while the rest of the market falls :) safe haven told you :))

And that is probably what this actually is.  I would also add that privacy isn't important to the average person, at all and what I mean by that is joe blow on the street is paying for his garden tools with a debit card, which obviously has no privacy attached whatsoever.  Most people do not frequent the dark markets and most people aren't tax cheats.  They just don't care about their money being anonymous.

Now a lot of crypto enthusiasts do indeed care about anonymity, but bitcoin offers enough of it such that they are comfortable, and I do not think that any fork of bitcoin is going to catch on regardless of how much anonymity it promises.  You'll see I'm right with time, believe me.

Wrong, I don’t know a single person who doesn’t care about privacy. Privacy is the most important use case PERIOD! If you don’t care about privacy than just go join your government banking fiat Ponzi scheme and leave crypto, your just a mindless sheep! Pie in the sky fantasy world.

I no longer believe John macafee. The last time he advertised a Pink taxi for $ 500,000. He doesn't care what he advertises.

John Mcafee gets himself paid for his statements. He says everything for the right price.
Therefore, i do not believe everything that he says.

John mcafee is a billionaire and doesn’t care about chump change payments. Most of the claims you’ve heard about him are completely made up and John likes to play along with them as a joke. You need to figure out when mcafee is joking and when he is serious to understand what his intentions are. Some people have no humour and don’t understand it lol 😂 most like to follow the heard and believe every claim they here because they are sheep! Mcafee doesn’t give a shit what these people think and has fun playing the game lol Do you really think a billionaire is going to shill for peanuts?? Comon guys give your head a shake!

John mcafee stopped making sense since last year's moon. He probably made billions of dollars already and he just talks for more popularity. Monero is gonna stay better than btcp.

I hate to say I told you so but “I told you so” lol btcp up while market crashes hahaha let this be a lesson to never follow the sheep. Btcp is the place to be!!!!

Ya you should of bought btcp

Did anyone see Mcafee's  latest tweet for BTCP price two days ago? He is predicting $200 by end of July for BTCP!
 That is almost 10x of current prices. If that happens in this weak crypto market, it will be a miracle. Let's see how that pans out in next  two months.

Remember. John mc affee always shill coin which he hodl he is dishonest person. I hope what he said is true but almost what he said is only shill on coin which he hodl and want to sell it as good as possible. When the coin become hype then prepare for the dumb from mcaffee..i bet he hodl much btcp.

dont listen to john. he will do whatever to get gains himself

I’d listen to John before listening to the mindless sheep like you.

Notice that he doesn't say WHY it will replace Monero and simply states the tech is superior (I am assuming he is referring to zk-snarks). That tech is open source though. That's how BTCP got it from ZCash. If they wanted to the Monero devs could just replace stealth addresses/ring sigs with zk-snarks and call it a day. They don't though. Because it's brand new/untested tech at this stage.

I do not agree, I do not see the real facts and grounds that this will happen, and the monero continues to be in the trend of promising anonymous coins.

You mean monero is trending down lol yup 😂 it’s hilarious to hear all these monero bias holders talk down competition with bullshit excuses.

I'm just glad that he never said that bitcoin cash is the best bitcoin fork.

There's a big competition for the privacy coins but I still think that monero is the best privacy coin.

Why do you think that? Do you understand the tech? Or is this just a follow the herd pie in the sky mentality?

If you are following the crypto market for a long time you will not listen to what John usually tells as he will come up with ridiculous claims before backing down, he is just a speculator and would endorse any project if he is given money and that does not leave him as a trust able guy to listen to when it comes to investments.

Indeed! If you are on cryptoworld for how many years or just recently last year you would really able to know on how this Mccafee is trolling out this market with just having those baseless claims for a token and then suddenly turn back his own words.He attacked bitcoin and this is why there are lots of haters for this guy and now proposing another forked coin? I dont think that Monero would be kicked out on the competition and i would rather choose this up than on BTCP.

The irony is that you are the one following the herd of sheep believing baseless claims about John macafee lol 

TRX is also seem like a scam cryptocurrency

i dont trust mcafee anymore.

he earned lots of money with giving signals on jan 18. most of people lost lots of grow away from market because of him.

I'm not following a herd, that's my opinion and I don't want just to get off into something that I really don't want to.

And besides this can also be part of his marketing and probably the people behind BTCP paid McAfee to shill it.

He is most likely promoting it because he got it for free since it was forked off Bitcoin.

He probably owns many Bitcoins and got equal amounts in BTCP. Hence why he is promoting it.

What BTCP needs badly however is a more reliable exchange. So far all the exchanges are low end. If it gets a listing on Binance or Bitfinex, then it should fly no problem.

So basically you have no proof of any of these claims and are basing your opinion off the herd of sheep saying macafee is shilling. If you think one of the richest people in the world is shilling shitcoins for chump change than you’re delusional. Give your head a shake!

Should I shake your head too?

What I said is this is my opinion and I'm not following a herd. I don't care if he's shilling BTCP or what, I don't like BTCP but I like monero is it hard to understand?

My statement clearly acknowledges this is your opinion (based on your opinion) read it again ye-idiot

Here’s your statement (“And besides this can also be part of his marketing and probably the people behind BTCP paid McAfee to shill it” .....that’s the herd mentality!

Now all your saying is “my opinion is I like monero and I don’t like btcp” ... it’s just a meaningless baseless opinion. Your just a pie in the sky lol now go follow your sheep hahaha

No one believes McAfee anymore. He lost all his reputation after doing the pump and dump in crypto last year. He seems to be a paid shilled anyway. Btw I agree that BTCP is atleast better than bitcoincash maybe. But monero is still far in reach for BTCP presently. Maybe in the future it can win over Monero, let's wait and see.

Would you f*cking stop listening to that John Mcdolands(macafee) hes not worth listening for nowadays,hes making statement to pump what coins he has betting,and i can feel that this man is accepting payments for every coins he will advertise so whats the sense of buying his words

And besides only few on what he predicted become true so stop posting what this damn person saying,because you only contributes to make famous those coins hes selling to market

a coin that starts as a fork of bitcoin will never become big. you can see bitcoin cash that despite all the drama and all the advertisements, misleading,.... is struggling hard to stay relevant.
some other fork coin like BTCP is never going to be able to gain even the half ass popularity of BCH let alone want to compete with an original coin that started from scratch and is trusted such as Monero.

“ a coin that starts as a fork of bitcoin will never become big “. Bcash is the 4th biggest crypto in the world, with 7 times the market cap of monero hahaha. FACT. That might be the dumbest comment on this thread lol

Another typical sheep following the herd. No proof of any claims, just a pie in the sky.

Japan's Ban Is a Wake-Up Call to Defend Privacy Coins


https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.coindesk.com/japan-wake-call-get-ready-defend-privacy-coins/amp/

Bitcoin Private is not a security!

Rebase coming soon and a long list of exchange listings coming! This coin is about to fucking explode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the moment I am no longer so convinced that the words and wishes of John McAfee should be considered as positive support for a cryptocurrency, or a way of alerting potential investors to get away from it.

It is enough to remember his famous list of "the 100 best cryptos" that only aroused the interest of the speculators at first, but that in the end meant the ruin of some of those cryptos.

Therefore, the recommendations and opinions of that man at present are totally irrelevant to me.

I think developers paid a bif amount of money to John Mcafee to say that.
Monero is more established and is more widely spread

Lol, who really believes John McAfee ? This guy is only looking for his own wallet, nothing more.
I don't think that BTCP, like alot of other coins, will have a real future as it bring nothing new.

Why people are hyped over this fork , i see nothing interesting in its future . also Monero and Zcash are better projects , they stand on their own idea instead of forks in name of bitcoin . whatever maccaffe says not necessary to be true , with my own research i would like to pass this project . also i am not fan of privacy coin so much , i like real life use of that blockchain rather than any feature which hide it from others .

Every celeb have followers and they work like their army .
For Ex suppo and balina have their own followers and if those youtubers give good rating to any coin , it is hyped in no time .
same McAffe use the same thing . sometimes they review and rate really good projects but a few times i have seen their selfish nature , recently a project exposed one of most popular celeb who was suggesting that project to list on binance and create hype , his intentions were only on pumping price just after ICO .

Generally it talks about money in all means.
Using up resources just to hype up a certain project that had been marketed is normal.If there are supporters then expect there would be lots of haters. We do know on what Mccafee been done on previous years or months when it comes on continuing criticising bitcoin and cryptocurrency coins in the market and now hes trying to promote BTCP? Seriously?

Lol too many brain dead mindless sheep in crypto.

BTCP can be popular as such an expert has backed it up and it has 2 more advantages:
1. It is private. There is a trend for privacy in crypto right now
2. It has the word "Bitcoin"

Btcp is like zec but with upgraded software capable of implementing lightning network which zec can’t do. It’s literally a revolution in crypto with zksnarks privacy feature. Once in a lifetime opportunity!

Any fork of Bitcoin is not a security, I think people need to understand that any project that is created by mining activities is not a security, I know there some alterations to the code but it is still based on the BTC foundation, I don't know how the space would evolve but with time we are likely to see the return of mining projects

Btcp on sale last chance!

BTCP will be the first coin to 10x this year!
