I like how I dumped all my coins at 500 satoshi and now its at 2000 satoshi. I guess the best thing to do would be to buy them all back. I mean it can only keep going up forever, right?

You helped someone earn their ripoff merit badge.

Two can play this game.

Monero is the best!

there's a "two/three" joke in here somewhere.  I'll get back to you.

Edit: Windows botnets are really a symptom of a much worse problem.

No, you have it wrong.

Windows botnets are not the fault of Microsoft, nor the fault of users who don''t maintain their computers properly.

They are entirely the fault of Monero devs, shills, and whales.

Got it?



Do the large red letters signify anything?

Bad news everybody. We accidentaly ran into CryptoAsian at our local pub. One of our “developers” had one drink too many and his wallet fell out of his pocket, spreading all documents around the room. Our guess is, that CryptoAsian saw some of his legal documents and now we have a 5+ PoD (Proof of Developer) rating.

We truly understand if we didn't met your expectations and we want to apologize by letting it rain RIPO tomorrow. Please visit our IRC channel #ripoffcoin on freenode then.


I expected less of this coin.  I expected at most something about a bathroom.

so I would be cautious unless you really understand how it really works.

Good advice for any coin, regardless of the reputation of the dev.

i bought a delectable painting for 2000 xmr.

No doubt the painting was very tasteful, but this is not a good use of art.  Are acrylics even digestible?

These RIPO developer guys sure know how to put the FUN in "FUNdamentally a ripoff". 

I feel a little guilty that I'm getting all these laughs (and learning a little bit) without contributing anything (except my corrections to p238 of the white paper), but I can see that plenty of others are taking up the slack.

Glad to see all the hard work is being enjoyed.

100% of my locatbitcoins.com transactions have been perfect.  I would not hesitate to do business there again.

I'm sure there will be pushback on these as there was to the others, but kudos to him and the Boolberry team for putting it out there for others to read, steal from, and criticize.  (Disclaimer:  I looked at an earlier draft of this one and provided some minor writing feedback.  I'm not an author of it and am not part of the BBR team.)

Busy reading through it - he leads into it with a huge fallacy that is either incredibly naive or very disingenuous of him. When describing CryptoNight he states: "These constraints were supposed to protect hash from GPU and ASIC implementation" [sic]. Literally the first paragraph in the CryptoNote whitepaper that describes the PoW algorithm says: "Our primary goal is to close the gap between CPU (majority) and GPU/FPGA/ASIC (minority) miners. It is appropriate that some users can have a certain advantage over others, but their investments should grow at least linearly with the power. More generally, producing special-purpose devices has to be as less profitable as possible."

Misrepresenting the facts of the matter in a whitepaper, purposely or not, is unconscionable.

Looks like two different ways to say the same thing.  "protect from" has the same meaning as "close the gap between" in terms of reducing the ability for GPU/ASIC to skyrocket the hash beyond the capabilities of CPU to do so.

We use year/month/day (South Africa), and Americans use month/day/year, so to see it day/month/year is extremely confusing for me.

I believe only Americans use that (strangely illogical, for the digital age) format.

People in the US grow up expecting birthday presents, and the US economy has several sectors that like pressuring people into buying birthday presents and cards.



I can confirm, as a non American, I have never ever had a birthday, or a birthday present


 Huh Huh

Sad, that.  If one of your friends is reading this, perhaps they'll get you a birthday, and a primer on logic as a present.

Plenty of time to spin this idea up before the holiday shopping season.
