I am one of the first guys to believe in Verge, back there in 2016, was buying it since 3 satoshi. I have a big bag of it. I have made big profits on it. I still want it to succeed, that is why i make everything that i wrote down here and even this post!
What is happening with a coin lately is just a trash.
It is all started with my discussion in discord, where i got an instant ban. I wondered why Verge makes friendship with TPAY, shouting about it on public, when TokenPay is PoS coin. On the
https://vergecurrency.com/faq/mining/ you can see, what Verge core team thinks about these 2 systems. After this question, i got perma flamed by VergeArmy of trolls, with "why do you care, we will have debit cards and price goes up etc etc", after trying to argue with them, i got banned in Verge discord, after i tryed same in telegram, got insta ban.
So where is a decentralisation, if we have Core-admins and moderators in public channels, where you get banned for just asking questions.
I tryed to talk in TPAY telegram channel and got instant ban for just starting PoW/PoS discussion, i didnt say Tpay is bad or something like this, just said, that PoS system is same system we have now with Dollar...InstaBan.
I still believe in XVG, i wrote many articles on it, why verge is the best altcoin now by far, (one of
https://steemit.com/crypto/@larphraulen/why-verge) i shilled it to maaaany many people in private groups as WolfOfPoloniex, CryptoHub, my big national crypto chats... everywhere.
So why Verge marketing team is talking so much about best decentralisation and acts like this in public channels. Nobody bans you in Bitcoin channels, if you trying to argue about Lightning, CTs or whatever, i can type and post whatever i want, everybody has own opinion. And TPAY+VERGE now look like scared of this topic (PoS/PoW) to be in discussion.
Even more, some guys from marketing Verge team know me, as i am a solid investor, first VergePreacher and they saw my articles and when i started this discussion, they just say "stop it, you are one of VergeFam, we dont want to ban you".
Why can not i discuss this topic? Who picks admins in public channels? Mass Media, telegram and discord play a big role today, one of the main roles in marketing. And if we talk about mass adoption, such behavior will destroy attitude. Many people of my own channel in TG ask me about PoS/PoW. You think, you can ban fast, so nobody see and understand?
What if people have another uncomfortable questions, you will continue banning everyone?
Everybody was just laughing, when i said, that i am going to sell all my stack at needed price, ok, laugh, you think people are stupid, but more people talk around about ugly behavior in discord/TG of Verge, this will destroy you, remember my words.
Further about decentralisation. Why Satoshi went in shadows? Because his personality can lead to the only reason of failure. In every other project we have now a main person (Charlie Lee - LTC, Vinny - CVC, etc..)
But all of them are smart enough to be silent now and separate coin foundations from the coin itself, separate persons name from coins name. Real decentralisation lies here!
What happens if Charlie Lee got killed? A lot, but it will not affect much as if Justinvendetta dissapears. All people now depend on his personality. And what he and his team are doing? Changing projects, getting busy with TPAY, making marketing for it. Who left with Verge? Ugly moderators trolls in discord and telegram.
Change rules, admins and behavior in public channels.
