I think partnering with hardware manufacturers would put it in the top five. Without hardware support on it's own Azure does almost nothing as it's just a SaS platform with templates.

I agree with you on the transparency and publicity of ICOs but partly disagree on mining. With PoW eventually you will end up with the very same results, only the way what goes there is somewhat different. IMO PoW isn't better as most (smalltime) miners are forced to sell for getting a return on their mining investments.

Anyway I still don't think that CfB intentionally neglected widespread advertisement on the forum, because of he wanted to grab most of his coins.

You stated something mate. I've asked for for a factual explanation. So proving your statements is your job.

Just another question. Do you see any altcoin (incl. ETH and Iota) getting real world use in the near future? I don't think so, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for sharing your views about Lisk. Would you mind to support your opinion with something factual stuff?

I think he refers to that when some overzealous american jews declared economic war on Germany in 1933 (and caused some significant damage indeed) what left the german jewry in a pretty shitty situation.

Recently a black bloke was talking about how my ancestors enslaved his ancestors. I told him that I'm Hungarian and my ancestors never enslaved any blacks. They slain the black on the spot because of they were most likely bashibazouk mercenaries or slaves for the turks, therefore nobody would pay a ransom for them if captured. This put him off the track, so he left me alone after that .

So, you are not willing or unable to answer my question about how to negotiate with them and what to offer. You can deny or disperse the problem but that will not go away.

Of course terrorism not going to disappear but without muslims that would be a lot more sporadic.

Stable altcoin is something like a bag of dehydrated instant water .

Well, deportation is working fine in the UAE, Operation Wetback in the States was also a sound success. The root of the problem is group what wanted to be segregated from the majority and don't accept our ways of life. Of course they can do that. Back at home.

You can try to twist many examples in defence of those terrorists, but that's not going to work. As soon as the UK govt sat down with the IRA and have made some meaningful negotiations they stopped killing people (for a while). What reasonable negotiations you wanna do with muslims? What we should offer to them? Convert the whole EU to islam, introduce sharia law and pack our women into rags?

ETH have some corporate and bank support. But I think they only see it as a prototype for their own creations.
If you are looking for something what is independent from corporate players, then try Lisk when it will be released (but I'm not sure about its independence). NXT and Qora are also good alternatives with the same or nearly the same functionality but for a fraction of the ETH price.

You can try Energycoin. It's cheap, staking after one day, and there are some development and community support. You can get some on Bittrex.

Leave him alone. Everybody with a half brain here knows that if Bob got involved in a coin he did that for profit, not for love or for charity. He never denied that. Invest accordingly.

As far as I know there are several PoW coins are out in the wild what used the same four principles what you described above (none of those were p&d proof) but indeed the miners were able to get it for the electricity price and had the choice to dump or hold. Also, more transparency around the ICOs would be really good. But actually with an ICO everybody have the choice to invest or not, dump or hold, however some forward thinking is needed.

Anyway I still think CfB is a very good programmer with unique ideas and great expertise, but very little sense for marketing and achieving big publicity for his coins. You see, he shared all necessary info in an ANN thread, he also made an ICO thread with all the needed information, and then nothing else just coding . Personally I like more this approach than the "American style" all singing, dancing and shilling ICO/launch campaigns what we can see here, but as I have to think about my pocket too this attitude doesn't make his coins attractive for me. So, while  my "engineer myself" keep praising his work, my "greedy pig myself" will go for something else with better marketing .

All nazis in Germany supported the endlösung? No they didn't, just some. Is that change anything about the opinion about nazism?

Indeed they will have more reasons for further attacks, but if they are back at home they not going to have the opportunity to do so.

Perhaps not, but I'd bet they were the implementers.

OK fair enough .


Well, how can I say that? Maybe because of experience? Using PoW as distribution method is of course a different approach, but you will end up with the same results as in the case of an ICO. Actually because of the limited availability the "pump price" will be higher. Can you remember the initial AUR pump, or the huge LTC pump and dump in 2013-2014? Several very fairly distributed (given away like COMM, or C2 and some others) went on the same path. After the distribution people dumped it for BTC a few people bought it in large quantities for 0.1 btc per stake (1million coin), pumped it to 200-300 sats and then dumped the coin down under 10 sats.

Agree, a quick microtransaction optimized coin would be better and probably that's the right direction.

I appreciate what you saying but let's face reality, you can't stop that wealthy minority to get and accumulate cheap coins. When ICOs were not widely practised here miners kept dumping their stash for peanuts and the very same few people bought and accumulated those coins en mass. Of course that ended with a pump and dump as well. Just take a look at old topics here.
