If my post was DELETED you wouldn't SEE it

your stupidity just went to a new level. Congratulations.  @BrokeA$$Miner

LOL - back to weak ass ad-hominem trolling ? you sound like the last guy
btw - the post you whined in is still up, but you want me to take your
word for it that a post (or multiple posts) were deleted.  With no
proof, and such a way with words...how could I ever doubt you?

We've deleted some of his as they've come off vulgar and livid with no actual basis.

Ahh - then I aplogize for doubting the posts being deleted
My bad

[fraidycat19]

Hmm, seems cool. Will read WP first dough.

Look back on the previous page.  The comment I wrote that you quoted.  Is now deleted.

Wake up and stop defending this scammer.

I actually did go back and verify it was still there.  It must have been deleted after
I checked.  And I apologize (again) for doubting posts were deleted.  My bad.

So now you've proven your posts were deleted, and warned us all of the
dangers of scams, and pointed you think this project is a scam....
can we stop filling ma inbox ?

[BrokeA$$Miner]

Since people keep donating.. i feel it is my job to stop people throwing their money away.
I really do not like scammers.   The guy that did Stone scammed people for $400k

I think you've made the risks in donating to projects abundantly clear,
and while I appreciate your sentiment - one dev scamming doesn't
make all dev scammers...

Give the guys the time they asked for, and if you like what
the produce - then donate.  Dev's seem to be pretty cordial
to even those of us who have stated we haven't donated.

Also, the white paper seems to be a step in the right direction...
I'm hoping its good :-)

P.S.
I'll take devs asking for donations over devs selling .5BTC
masternodes on barely functioning networks any day....

you replied to my comment.. and he has already deleted it... he has been caught red handed.

I will take getting a token that has no product.. over getting nothing at all.. Anyday.

We appreciate the kind words and sentiment, and there's nothing wrong with being skeptical.

It's just unfortunate when people compare us to Stone, as a project like felix's has tainted the image for legitimate ones.

[ceferov]

Was faucet user of Raiblocks I also think it's fair but can't see any advantage of your coin from XRB. Anything that I missed?

yeah - seems to be a lot of hate around that one....
oddly enough, I never saw it ?  these forums really
need a good RSS feed or something.  Seems like
you only get notified about half the threads.  Thats
why I'm so anal about clicking every email the forum
sends - worried it'll stop notifying if I don't.

We hope you'll participate in the faucets for Manta too 

As for our coin compared to RaiBlocks, our design allows for privacy and obfuscation of transactions and account balances, while maintaining a high transaction speed.

This coin looks good and I like the idea of distribution through faucets.

Can you tell in short what advantages will have Manta in comparison to Blackbytes (anonymous coins of other DAG currency - Byteball Bytes)?

Thanks!

[boudesj]

whitepaper looks good, but did I understand correctly that this version is a short/preliminary version?
If that is the case, you might want to make it clear in the OP that there is more to come than this one-pager.

Hey boudesj!

The purpose of the paper we released was to provide a brief explanation of the design of Manta, as well as being easy to comprehend. We do plan on having a more in depth and technical paper in the future around the time of Manta's release, when everything is finalized tech-wise.

Thanks!

In the comparison of Manta to Blackbytes, Manta is specifically focused on privacy, while Blackbytes is intertwined with the public currency, Byteball Bytes, which poses many privacy concerns, as well as obtaining and using Blackbytes can be incredibly inconvenient.

With our design making privacy mandatory, it ensures complete privacy to exist, as well as being the main focus of the currency.

[boudesj]

Loving this responsiveness, thanks!

Be careful with the Azulik project. Their draft whitepaper consistly mostly out of the copies from another paper, without references.
Here is the post and the explanation. The Azulik Team had some decency to write to me privately after deleting my post, and since it was private, I cannot make the contents of their pm public, but they can explain their reasons for deleting my post publicly, if they want.

Can I still donate? @MantaCurrency? Or donations are closed?

[xskylarkx]

Will there be a test net for donators ?

[Black_bl]

Watching this DAG coin...

[BrokeA$$Miner]

Looks like this coin is becoming popular. Get some popcorn before you click this link. Happy reading

Oh - I did see the Stone announcement - I recognize the logo images
So call me lazy for not reading all 47 pages, but why is Stone a scam?
The developer posted a few times today, and seems to be going ahead with a testnet ?
(he also did a rough tally of donations and market cap..)

I realize thats not a finished product, but from all the complaints about it,
I figured the dev had taken the funds and done a runner to tahiti ?
