How many people are here because they like reading about scams?

[nutildah]

Secret: I voted for #4.

There aren't just scam coins.
IMAO, on the "Alternate cryptocurrencies" you can find interesting posts and Announcements of new coins with great technical improvements.

I agree with you.

However, there's a new scam here every day. Sometimes the mechanisms of human psychology that scammers employ to accomplish their objective are far more interesting and novel than whatever innovations they are promoting in their coins..

I realize the word "scam" is heavily played out by this point but its still applies 100%.

PS: I am not looking for how to "up my scam game." Just as a fan of human psychology, I find the lengths that people will go to to fuck each other over to be fascinating.

agreed it amuses my balls off more than Altcoins themselves..

This poll needs a wider sample of votes in order to be scientific.

[boxuser]

there is the part missing, "i am here to research about coin's where should i invest"

[thrax]

I don't really like reading about scams, I'm just here to find out about the latest one's so I don't get ripped off by them.

[Nxtblg]

It is quite a show, can't argue with that...

[jonybroker]

There is so much to read in altcoin section, not just scam.

That should be combined with choice #1.

Yeah but the scams are the funnest part. Except when it involves a coin I bought.

I'm here to research interesting concepts and ideas. I think Bitcoin someday will die and someone will have to take this place. I'm interested in - who.

Is that why you're still broke?

I agree, I think so too.

I'm done buying bitcoin. Now Coinbase demands you register all your personal information with them (again) in order to purchase bitcoin so they can pass this on to our masters on Wall Street.

The whole point of bitcoin is to make people free from this bullshit. Now that the bullshit is catching up to bitcoin, bitcoin is becoming a little more useless every day.

So yes, some alt that is defined outside of the new regulation will surpass bitcoin, until it itself is regulated, then the cycle will repeat again.

So yes, some alt that is defined outside of the new regulation will surpass bitcoin, until it itself is regulated, then the cycle will repeat again.

But are they? How broad is the relevant definition in the enabling legislation? Anyone know?

This isn't the terms of broadness of which you are speaking, but Coinbase (headquartered in the U.K.) is already collecting their users' personal information _in anticipation_ of NY state passing laws which potentially effect the entire world.

In terms of how "digital currency" is defined and all that, I think they are still some ways away. But its simply naive to think the banks won't work with the government to screw over ordinary people, as has been standard practice for the last 100 years.

Even though it should be very sad that people lose their hard earned money, it is very statisfying to see that the motto:

"cavet emptor" should apply, but most people just blindly trust everyone...

Thinking about it, would you give a random man on the street pitching you an investment idea, hundreds of dollars? Yeah, this is what you are doing online without thinking twice.

[Magic8Ball]

There are lots of interesting things if you look well. If you are stupid enough to fall for a scam its your fault. Most of them are easy to spot.
You can earn a lot also if you can get into some early.
