'Mastercoin is a joke'

[DGulari]

What the fuck is wrong with those guys at Colored coin?  Is their project failing so badly that they need to sling mud into our project?  Wow - I didn't expect that.  They must be hurting.

It's not a joke.  It's making my transactions take longer and cost more, which is frankly irritating.

Which Master coin?

Hint: They both were a joke.

Every bitcoin transaction makes your transaction take longer and cost more.  The blockchain is not perfect.  Those clever guys at the foundation are going to figure out a solution real soon.  bitcoin had this identical problem long before JR Willet showed up with Mastercoin.  Visa does 20,000 transactions per minute - bitcoin does only 7 / second.  The blockchain was never going to support heavy action anyway.  They will find a nice solution in the next year or two.

Instead of waiting for bitcoin to fix a problem that isnt even a problem for a few years, lets make an alt coin!
