huh? what do merchants do with BTC?
I dont see your point?
Basically, the main developer of this coin was involved with XPY. It appear the main developer was a big investor in that coin. I believe the main developer was going to develop some kind of store that accepted XPY. This fell through since the situation with XPY kept getting worse. Now suchmoon has made it his duty to warn the community that we cannot trust anyone involved in XPY. This includes the investors who lost their ass and tried in vain to save their investment.
Quite frankly, I do not see why they have to keep pestering the former cheerleaders of XPY and subject them to ridicule. I take this personally since I also invested in XPY. I was a noob and it was the first new altcoin launch that I ever was involved in. I got suckered into getting one of their hashstakers for $99.00. Should have just stuck to selling off what I mined and been done with it. Lesson learned.
