So you stumped him with the old "BUT ZOMG WHO WILL BUILD THE ROADS?" canard?

Rand got a lot more right than she got wrong.  And I love how she is still able to give Marxists painful allergic reactions, causing them to wail upon contact with Objectivism.

Would you want to live in a world where EVERYTHING is public property?

Oh nice, it's been far too long since somebody made a good old fashioned Domination Post!   

There you go again.

That's exactly the kind of "poutraged pique and self-pitying sulking" I was talking about.   

I hope you can move onto the Acceptance phase of the Klassique grieving process very soon.

Do you regret developing AT primarily for NXT?

Would it be better to develop an open source version of shapeshift using that technology?

Enjoy your fits of poutraged pique and self-pitying sulking.

The rest of us will still be here when you guys build a bridge, and GET OVER IT.   

In matters regarding the preservation of Bitcoin's incentive structure, Core's understanding of economics is superior to your own (LMK when you get a PhD in distributed systems, thus gaining credibility equal to Dr. Back's).

As a free market True Believer, you should have already accepted that as fact, since the socioeconomic majority is clearly behind Core (and loathes Klassique).

Instead we are treated to the spectacle of a supposedly pro-market Bitcoin Jesus Movementarian acting like a full-blooded Marxist, throwing his toys out the pram the instant he's relegated to (cranky, disruptive, contentious) minority status.

Gmax and I are apparently not on speaking terms due to disagreement over an ASIC pre-order fiasco in which we both (willingly) participated.

Having stated that disclaimer, I must remark upon your white belt level trolling.

Every single time you attack the socioeconomic majority, we effortlessly throw you to the mat and give you a friendly (hopefully educational) kick in the head.

But you learn nothing.

What are we to make of this?  How many times does XT/Klassique/Unlimiturd need to be dismissed by the market until you Get It?

As Bitcoin Jesus, I expect you to be first in grokking the ethos.  Instead, you do what you've been doing.

Hard to put words in your mouth when it is already occupied by Brian Armstrong's ****.  

I see that as well.  franky's nonsense cannot penetrate the hull of my stoutly built sensor ship!   

Gmax is a saint for suffering through franky1 posts and responding in good faith, with such an indomitable hope of someday bringing light to the benighted Gavinistas.

Nice catch.  Go Fluffy go!   

"Not clear everyone agrees" is an understatement, given the Blockchain Alliance's commitment to keeping Bitcoin firmly under the thumb of TBTB.

Given the booming cottage industry of Bitcoin blockchain analysis, CT might be relegated/limited to a role of damage control in the (future?) fungibility arms race.

Ver's trolling is advertising for the shitty rump forum and casino he hosts on the exorbitantly overpriced bitcoin dot com domain.

He must be losing a ton of money paying for care and maintenance on that ghost town.

Thus the frequent shittweeting of clickbait, hoping someone besides Brian Armstrong will notice his hapless flailing.

No survivors.   

The PAAP (Platform As A Platform) ICO fad is this

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=78.0

all over again.

ETH has sufficient critical mass to possibly succeed.

But the rest are hopeless wanna-bees, stealing noobs' lunch money using glittering promises of getting rich quick.

SuperNet, Maid, and your shady VPS.

Any other scams you'd like to promote?

Nice 300 BTC buy wall for "crap monero."

Feel free to short "crap monero" if you want.

I'd love to get some low bids filled.   

Dump into it and find out?

It's the Dash Instamine all over again; a stunning display of incompetence, malfeasance, or both.

"Oops, we accidentally too many coins....OH WELL BETTER KEEP THEM ANYWAY BECAUSE OF REASONS."

That depends.

For an antifragile project like Bitcoin, Litecoin, or Monero, infighting is good.

For brittle shitcoin trash like NXT, Dash, and Maid, infighting is fatal.

In before NXT 3.0 Instamine and NXT Classic ICO....
