Trolling by blog post, basically.

FWIW, I didn't get far. It's not shy about advertising itself as an immature and ill-written polemic ...

“This analogy is absolutely appropriate to characterize the many alternative cryptocurrencies modeled on Bitcoin”. That's a revealingly immature choice of wording and the reference here is to a dismissive trope, not an analogy.

“altcoin communities can only whine for attention” <- this kind of gratuitous sneer is an insult to the reader's intelligence. I'm looking for reasoned argument but the author wants to lead me around by the nose. I stopped reading at this point.


Cheers
