the elon muskit virus is spreading !!! Hey everyone, I recently did this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPdnG03eI58) showing some of the recent Deception and Misdirection that the ZCash team has pushed on us all over the last 1.5 years and ofcoarse more recently over the last week with the announcement of the Z9. .... another shit coin exposed, Zcash aka ZEC... and this one has still a billion dollar market valuation... what a shame, and when the centralized owner encountered some arguements, what did he do? he did a elon musk, and censored the great user whose post you can read in the quote. I hope the market will not support such trash... where to short it? there is an easy divided by 100 here... from 1 billion to 10 millions (which is way too much already for such a scam)... OPM really don't care... and don't forget to hodl you profit in btc . who took some off the tables? $936m... can go below the million now ... and who will be left holding the bag? I hope it is zooko ... I like how ZenCash just said..."ok, we're going to take your crypto that you created and pre-mined...and we're going to create the exact same coin but without the pre-mined coins". This should be done far more often with pre-mined coins. I don't want to shill, but Zen is one of a small handful of alts I like. They've taken the ball from ZCash and they seem to be taking it into a really interesting direction.

If this is not bullish, I don't know what is: Some of the biggest names on Wall Street are warming up to bitcoin, a virtual currency that for nearly a decade has been consigned to the unregulated fringes of the financial world. The parent company of the New York Stock Exchange has been working on an online trading platform that would allow large investors to buy and hold bitcoin, according to emails and documents viewed by The New York Times and four people briefed on the effort who asked to remain anonymous because the plans were still confidential. .... Goldman will initially only be trading futures contracts linked to bitcoin’s price. But Goldman executives said they were looking at moving in the direction of buying and selling actual bitcoins. The Intercontinental Exchange’s effort, if it pans out, could make bitcoin available to a much wider and more influential customer base, including other financial firms. ... Read the whole NYT article at: https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/markets/stocks/news/coming-soon-bitcoin-trades-on-wall-street/articleshow/64076979.cmsI am bullish and all for Wall Street warming up to bitcoin and getting in the game, but what are your thoughts on them manipulating the markets through the futures short and the regular trading for keeping bitcoin in a desired band yoyoing for months and years defeating the purpose of HODL for the regular folks? Genuine question, this is my worry for the near future Right now there aren't any viable fiat on-ramps for institutional investors, but that seems to be changing. Also, I think they will want to dip their toes in the water by going long, at first. Later down the line, there will be some yoyoing, and massive shorts. Ultimately though, Bitcoin is an idea who's time has come, and there's no way to stop it

Probably they have it split all over thousands of masternodes. I guess that is the main reason the distribution "looks" so good.
In reality, we are comparing oranges to apples here.
I had forgot about the masternodes. Those nodes are a kind of centralization, as only those with a thousand dash coins can set them. So, bitcoin is the most decentralized currency, if we take that into consideration. We can never really say for sure which is the most decentralized, due to Monero's opaque blockchain.

Monero with its opaque blockchain. You don't know who stealth mined in huge quantities and you trust that there isnt an exploit or bug allowing someone to mint any quantity of XMR they like. You don't have a richlist. You can't analyise the blockchain at all, You assume its all good. Yay. Monero. Its name even means something in esperanto. And it has a wallet now
Yes, it's a privacy coin that's actually private, unlike DASH - the Bcash of privacy coins.

What a surprise, imaginary, valueless tokens can be sent over the internet but real world goods that actually do have value can't be. Who would have guessed you cannot send silver or gold, a cheeseburger, or a house over the internet, but a Goldman Sachs mortgage backed security, US dollar, or bitcoin can be?
It seems you've stumbled upon one of the value propositions offered by Bitcoin. Congratulations.
