There was no disadvantage to mine for anyone.

One guy ( on this forum under nick "dga" if i remember right) made a optimised miner. Maybe was more then one guy. But one guy told about it. He have skills and he did it. It was open race for anyone to do it. And he rented lots hashpower and mined in first month or was two. That is all.


That is same as this. There is a race. And everyone brings horses they work on fields with them. One guy decide to train his horse for ruining in last few months. So his horse win game easily.  What is here sneaky about it? Everyone could spend time and instead of work on field making food for winter, rather train their horse.

No one knows anything about Spoetnik - he doesn't appear to do much research and throws shit against the wall to see what sticks.

Except for Jackpotcoin ... he loves Jackpotcoin. 

Luckily he has entertainment value and the scammers hate him (IDK why - since he just throws shit at everything).  So his presence is tolerated.

I have "cited sources" so much that mod's sometimes delete them.
Such as the Coindesk we need clone coins news topic. (is everything about Monero ?)
It gets tiring playing with back stabbing little Monero assholes who run around here creating piles of accounts to chant "lies" over & over then having to re-type out a long winded explanation that you all say is too long and you don't want to read.

My trust rating says it all.. Monero assholes negged me claiming "Lies"

Your citation Wink

[NEWS] Monero David Latapie French Police Fraud [updated]

They ruined my rating over that topic.. claiming i "lied"
And since i didn't that means it is more lies from them.. to go along with all the other trolling bullshit they pulled for years.

They have skeletons in their closet and i have said before it will come out eventually.
Their pattern of behavior will catch up with them all i can guarantee it.

Which is what this is about.. Monero assholes trashing on my rep hoping i will leave.
So i will stop bringing up the bullshit they pulled before.

I would urge users to look at the history of the Monero cult.
See for yourself.

Bottom Line:
If the Monero Cult guys pulled all their shit with some other coin you would all be screaming scam.
Why do the Monero assholes get a free pass ?

I like to use Spoetnik's tips. He often justly calls out scams. There's difficulty in judging if something is a scam or not though when it comes to the word decentralization. I find it perfectly acceptable for some people to come together and start a new coin/network where they have 100% of all coins. I like ICOs but I'm biased because I'm running an ICO. I find the ICO can break down the monetary barrier of entry for applications and software.

You can't expect every coin to be a success. You also can't expect everyone to join bitcoin. ICOs are going to be huge. They'll be the new company. Sort of like a Corporation 2.0. Like companies today, some will be bad and others will be good. Buying coins is like a real life shark tank. If you want to be a shark, you better have skills at being a VC. Big things are coming with PoS consensus, smart contracts and content delivery all being wrapped in a nice little open source package.

I've noticed decentralization is becoming played down in favor of cryptocurrency/altcoins/gas fee/coupon/usage tokens. The public seems to want altcoins but does not want to deal with all the decentralization, which I completely understand. Setting up and maintaining a server is extremely difficult.

@Joint
If your ICO was regulated like a traditional IPO etc ..you would get far more "investors"
Or would you ?
Do teens with a desire for a token on Polo asking for a million via kickstarter always get funded on the New York Stock Exchange ?
Get it ?

Laws are created to address the abusers.. such as teens with no experience who want a "me too coin"
Or posting fake company IPO's on the stock exchange then using illegal trade tactics to manipulate it for profit.

No wonder you all like ICO's and no Laws here Roll Eyes

BlockNET got 1 million in Bitcoin for a posting a jpeg in the ANN section.
What's not to like ?
I dunno maybe go ask the "investors" asking why nothing happened a year later ?

This has all devolved into a silly greedy scammy little joke.
You all CHOOSE to see it as wonderful.... because it puts money on your pocket.
That is like saying robbing banks is great.. i need to get paid.
You all know this crap is not fair and heavily exploited.. by the others of course ..not me and *MY* coin.

I am done i will never buy an ICO coin.
This scene is boring and just gets worse in time.
I've had about enough and can only envision getting more bored and wandering off like so many before me.
Have fun guys and good luck you are going to need it.

I can't really support 90% of the Altcoin scene anymore.. it's a joke.
And the only people laughing are the guys making ICO's etc on their way to the bank.
Losing money is not fun.  Roll Eyes
..which would be the majority (basic math)

<<A bunch of shit>>

I should have added.  Scamming is 95% of the altcoin space.  So even though Spoetnik is ineffectual.  Everyone squealing should just STFU.  I like Monero and it wasn't a scam (sorry buddy).

But we should have THOUSANDS of more people like you yelling about what they think are scams and maybe this shithole would have a tad more legitimacy

I think it extends past that. I like DAOs but they failed. DCOs Decentralized Co-ops are looking pretty good right now until DAOs can take over. Over time the amount of money ICO creators make compared to other people should balance out. Teams of 1000s of people can come together to run DCOs. There should be plenty of spots for all kinds of people to get parts of the pemined coins, not just devs like happens right now.

A lot of projects are scams. Probably 99%. It sucks. I can't believe people fall for this. Stuff is so over priced right now. Things are going to get better and cheaper. Most of the things people buy on bittrex and poloniex are pretty bad. 99% seems a bit excessive. If a coin makes it on bittrex or poloniex there's probably only a 80% chance that it's a scam. The other ones are legit but that doesn't mean the project will become popular and scale to a high amount of users. Also, make sure to remember that what we have now isn't very good and replicating what we have today will be very easy and cheap to do in the coming years.
