Economic status comes in more flavors than "rich" and "completely destitute without food," man. You think because I only have $3,000 to invest instead of $100,000, I should invest $0 because it's full stop or nothing? I have to have enough money to invest in every single meritable cryptocurrency project, or I should invest in none of them at all?

Why the fuck? No. I will invest as much as I safely can. If you have enough money to safely sit on for a few years, good for you, and enjoy it. I would still own Factoids under those conditions.

Then stop complaining about lack of information or not getting special treatment.  Being a community leader in crypto means shit - it is not a formal position. Factom owes you nothing and there is no reason for you to get special treatment or secret information - hell most of the people who work for them probably aren't entitled to that - why should you be?

Further I don't have a huge amount of funds to invest either.  You are the one making ridiculous assumptions of wealth.  I don't have huge stacks of money to throw away yet I am not complaining about making a voluntary investment in a private company out of my own choice.

Factom is a real business and they are operating like one.  You may be used to things working differently in most crypto-projects but that is because they are not real businesses.  

As for your conspiracy theories why don't you tell Alex Jones about them?  If you find them that suspect sell your tokens and get out.

You can either grow up and stop complaining or move on.

Either way the people running Factom don't have time to worry about your feelings.  

They are too busy building a real business with real value and I would rather they spent time doing that than spending all their time posting pointless updates to placate people who have no patience and need constant reassurance or they start crying on BTC talk.

My solitary post did not constitute an egregious complaint. You're the one crying, here, because you didn't like my thoughts, which forums are designed for expressing. It upset you so much that instead of sticking with logical arguments, you chose to resort to jokes about whether or not I should be drinking when I'm lonely in order to discredit me via ad hominem attack.

Someone accused me of conspiracy first. It's fair for me to do the same in response, and unfair for you to be insulted by the retaliation. Nowhere did I state any expectations of what I'm owed; I was compensated fairly for my marketing support, and admitted it possible that I may not be significant enough to warrant much communication.

I posted that I don't have Factoids anymore because it's true. I have posted positive things about Factom so many times and so consistently that if I said nothing, it would be very reasonable to assume I still own Factoids, which would not be true. Is it wrong for me to correct that misconception? Why?

I'm sorry if I offended you.  I'm not meaning to come across as being so harsh - I'm just tired of the constant complaining on BTC talk about lack of  information.

It's cool; I probably I shouldn't have used the word "retarded." That always leads to drama. Sorry

Well I am a bit of a hot head too!  Let's forget it and just agree that we have different opinions on certain things:)

Price showing signs of growth. China waking up to the news. I am officially a long term holder of Factom. The US gov sees value in this coin thats good enough for me. I think the FACTOM team is on to something here. No other coin in crypto has ever got recognition like that. They should be thankful. I believe FACTOM will make the world a better place. This platform will do great things and the fact that it can "anchor" into other blockchains is a BIG deal IMO.

I have to thank all impatient weak hands who determine their actions via price capitulation instead of fundamentals, without you guys I wouldn't be able to get such a good average.  Wink

Please give me more FACTOM no one selling to me Sad


This is gonna take the globe by storm. Places like India are so messed up. Im from India and just trying to sell your house in some village areas is such a headache. Even owning farm land out there. The cops are corrupt they forge documents and people buy off other peoples land behind their backs. Crazy unreal shit goes on in India. Believe me. This could very well be the start of the change and the end of the corruption in places like India and world wide.

Yes I've got relatives in Pakistan (as well as India) it is the same over there.  I'm not sure if Factom is necessarily the solution for this as it's not really a currency but Bitcoin would certainly be very useful.  It would certainly make it much cheaper to send money back and forth but the problem is the people who need it most don't have the knowledge to use or easily convert it to cash so they can buy stuff easily.  Obviously if everyone knew about it and shops accepted it would be a different matter.

My gut tells this could be something special. Thats all. Dont fully understand the implications of FACTOM yet.

We will likely see an exodus from ETH due to risk aversion and that refuge BTC will flow into FCT. M2 release, post M2 news and in a month we will likely see ETH/FCT parity around .01 area.

Nah, I do like Factom and the idea behind it but Ether s still and will remain number one. As you can it has started recovering and it will get back even stronger then before. Factom still needs to show what it can do in the future.

ETH has serious liability issues at this point, until the fork has actually taken place and the network reaches consensus ETH will have selling pressure regardless of bounces on short covering. In regards to Factom its been clear for awhile now those who do their due diligence generally only need to wait and buy dips from the impatient longs who capitulate on their self induced FUD. Factom is the first crypto to raise funds from the US government, the stakes are even higher now for them to produce results and its unlikely that the DHS makes these funding decisions lightly.

The amount of trust and visibility that the US government will give to FACTOM is huge, and once some other big player joins in, it's gonna be a chain reaction towards mass adoption.

Honestly did not expect the DHS to come out and embrace this tech of all the wings of our GOV. This is so great. Great signal. The Gov is def on the right path here and that makes me proud!
