Give it up r0ach, your desparate flailing windbag ramblings only prove that Bitcoin is #winning. Also fuck off.  |

All the people at the peak of Mt. Stupid on that chart were all the big blockers and BCash shills. SW and LN has since destroyed their ignorance and delusion. Now can we get on with doing the same for all the mETH heads and all the ICO shitcoin lovers?  |

He didn't pretend it was the new bitcoin.
No. But he did spend literally years opining that "Litecoin is silver to Bitcoin's gold." Which we all know is complete and utter bullshit since the two have zero correlation. |

Methinks you need to ponder upon the definitions of 'open source' and 'permissionless'.
Methinks you need to ponder the upon the definitions of 'scam', 'troll', and 'shill'. You seem to gravitate towards those things. |

I think he worked at google right? That would make for it yeah. Also probably he is older than he looks like (in fact in recent pictures he does). If you read that twitter stream, to this day Charlie doesn't consider Litecoin a scam. But often we need to reconsider what the definition of a scam truly is. I mean, to make Litecoin he literally took a snapshot of the Bitcoin source code, changed like 2 easily-found config parameters, and launched it. And he admitted that it took him all of like a long Saturday to change and test it. He put almost zero effort into creating Litecoin. He created an altcoin of Bitcoin with a few clicks of a mouse. What he did, anyone could literally do with enough knowledge of the code. So what part about that process and goal isn't scammy? Today when people do that with the Bitcoin source, we say that they're doing it for scammy or selfish purposes. But for some reason we give Charlie a pass because he's a nice guy, Bitcoin proponent, and no longer holds any LTC. (Little known fact: he once DID hold a metric shitload of LTC and probably made a million dollars selling some before LTC even hit $0.20c) |

Wow. I didn't take you for a fudster.
Well I'm not. And honestly I don't care. But let me ask you this: Do you really like using a tech that you have no way of verifying fully if it does what it says it does, but you simply have to trust what the devs tell you it can do? If the 3 letter agencies have found a way to trace Monero transactions from origin to destination, you'd never know or hear about it, now would you? |

Yeah well...Monero just got rumbled for having piss poor privacy. Upshot is that the decoy transactions can be traced with ease, allowing those inspecting the blockchain to pinpoint details of supposedly private transactions. Little wonder the Monero emo-dev is getting upset about BTCP. BTCP poses a significant threat to Monero because real (zk-snarks) privacy trumps the non-privacy of Monero. That is why the Monero emo-dev is spraying stupid juice everywhere

Honestly, they are all scared. It's coming out that monero privacy is fake and monero's movement are traceable, while BTCP is not. BTCP has the best privacy tech with bitcoin name. It's gonna be the future, and everyone who didn't invest know that and spread FUD against this coin. I even have the suspect that the CMC and exchange issue are because someone doesn't want BTCP to moon.

For $884K, I'd want the watch to berate me constantly and humiliate me in front of friends. That's the only way I can think that I could justify that price tag. Is FP really wearing a million dollar watch? If so why? I'm really confused. Why are you surprised that an XMR core dev scammed millions out of all the XMR shitcoin lovers? lol |

It's definitely not a chick magnet. And by the looks of that guy, he could use a few chick magnets. And maybe a personal trainer? *ducks* |

I'm looking forward to a day when people stop quoting roach so we don't have to see his comments in quotes...it kind of defeats the purpose of the ignore button   But...  |

I heard a bitcoin maximalist somewhere make an interesting point recently. He said if you support any altcoin (or bitcoin fork), you're essentially supporting the continuation of the legacy fiat currency system, as you're supporting the printing of money out of thin air.
That's sort of true, in that the fallacy exists that either (fiat or altcoin) has value the moment it is birthed. Just because something has a trade-able fiat price doesn't mean it actually has any value (just look at the penny stock market, or a company like Tesla lol). But more importantly, if you support the altcoin market, you are also supporting the very (only?) mechanism that the establishment is maliciously exploiting and leveraging to slow down and attempt to strangle Bitcoin mass adoption - in its crib. To do that, all they have to do is sew the seeds of confusion by creating tens of 1000s of coins and marketing them to the mass public "as all on the same level/playing field". Which is exactly what they did. |

Mine is above 140; Where does that put me?
Autistic. I would bet bitcoins to donuts that Satoshi's IQ was in the 110-140 range. Along with all the core devs. So once again, r0ach can rightly fuck off. |

Like I keep telling you, I sold at the top. Yes, while I was shilling bcash. What of it?
Wow, jbreher the troll finally comes clean. 1. He admits to shilling 2. He correctly calls the shitcoin 'bcash' |

Funny how Bitcoin is not the only thing disrupting a stodgy, insular industry that haughtily classifies and defines "what is __________" to protect its own self-serving interests. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/may/15/has-wine-gone-bad-organic-biodynamic-natural-wineBut among wine critics, there is a deep suspicion that the natural wine movement is intent on tearing down the norms and hierarchies that they have dedicated their lives to upholding. The haziness of what actually counts as natural wine is particularly maddening to such traditionalists. “There is no legal definition of natural wine,” Michel Bettane, one of France’s most influential wine critics, told me. “It exists because it proclaims itself so. It is a fantasy of marginal producers.” Robert Parker, perhaps the world’s most powerful wine critic, has called natural wine an “undefined scam”.
Gee, sound familiar? |

It's hilarious to me watching the wealthy elites aimlessly flail around trying to improve the world's economies. They're in complete panic mode. But the recovery all hinges on one pivotal thing: the Western consumer getting back to over-consuming and piling on more debt, like they desparately need them to be doing. And that, my friends, just ain't happening. Like at all. Dead stop. And all the flailing around is powerless to jump-start it again. You can't 'force' people to consume against their will. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/M2V |

I´m curious to hear what you think about my arguments and of course it would be great
if you could add additional arguments.
I would add two more arguments: 7. Bitcoin had "immaculate conception." Anything that followed did not. 8. Once a crypto (Bitcoin) had been created that has the greatest security, meets all the the fundamental needs/attributes that a good crypto should have, and achieves popularity and utility, and can be upgraded, then what is the point of creating anything else? Answer: there isn't one. Once Gold is created and becomes popular, what's the point of Fool's Gold? None. Charlie Lee once said that all his LTC team had to do is wait and implement the good solutions from the Bitcoin developer team.
That statement alone should prove how completely worthless Litecoin is. |
