Brutal article. Homero is so hosed... Yep, great article. I wonder if Ian Demartino is interested in penning an article on how a well-known bitcoin miner manufacturer used a third party payment processor as an exchange to launder tens of millions of dollars prior to the FTC shuttin' them down briefly last year.

tl;dr someone?
I'm the writer, here is basically what happened: I ask him a bunch of questions, he tries to answer them, but then I ask follow-ups and he ducks out. Feel free to skip the intro, it is mostly for people who haven't heard of Paycoin. I think you'll enjoy some of my responses to him, worth a skim at least. Trying to put a Hashtalk ban on your resume? https://hashtalk.ch/topic/37607Nice article BTW, you managed to get him tangled and pissed off really well.

"irregularities in our contracts" Right so their hands are tied while the ASICs are switched off, so no doubt they'll be allowing people to withdraw their funds in the meantime, right? Cos', you know, mining machines being switched off doesn't affect a bitcoin wallet, sooooooo, sure, yeah, they'll let people withdraw their funds while their 'lawyers' are dealing with the ASIC power-supply issue. That is so going to happen. We are going to be proven sooooo wrong about them being a Ponzi as they let people withdraw their funds while the miners are offline. That is so going to happen. I heard they called their lawyers so many times they installed a phone to speed up the process a bit. The only ones making money hand over fist are the lawyers.

downvote, troll, fudster, shadowban. it's time! The right answer to this should have been that PayCON is already better than PayCoin, but still worse than Bitcoin. If you want to talk serious cryptos, that is...

downvote, troll, fudster, shadowban. it's time! The right answer to this should have been that PayCON is already better than PayCoin, but still worse than Bitcoin. If you want to talk serious cryptos, that is... PayCon is actually better because it has a fairer distribution and doesn't have selective hyper-inflating wallets, instead it has high inflation equally with static rewards which means the early adopters gain the most benefit. At the end of Pow there was 2 million coins, now there are 6.4 million coins so many have doubled or tripled their coins but because there is a static reward the amount of inflation compared to the money supply is reducing over time. Inflation is just high enough to keep price stable so although price is up 200-300% from the end of Pow, when compared to the money supply it is more like 1000% increase in price.Liquidity is still an issue to sell a large portion at once but if you can sell your principal and still have the same amount left, that's roi. That's not even including all the wallet features introduced. Bitcoin is still better though, at least in terms of market adoption.

Hi everyone, working on a story about everyone's favorite coin.
So, you all probably know Josh "burned" some coins through a transaction fee. The whitepaper as most of you probably know, states that Orion Controllers will get fees from transactions. People on hashtalk say that never got implemented but was destroyed.
I've been looking over their github, but I'm not a programmer and am a little over my head, really driving home the fact that I need to take a crash course on this kind of stuff. Common sense and following variables only get you so far. Can anyone find me the relevant section in the github that proves what happens to Tx fees either way? I'll give your twitter or BTT account (or whatever account) a shout out in the article if you would like.
Thanks.
No one help him.What a Prick, with a capital P.
