you made sense !!
The problem is that they only how to say this is FUD< instead of trying to look at what wrong with their project !
their ego is too big to admit that their mining strategy is a joke. no long term plan ! no holding rewards,
they just cant see , that there is no real demands on bittube, and will never be for abvious reason that people use YOUTUBE> and their website uses way much memory that it is becoming suspicious.
And as long as the maximum supply is not updated , I WILL KEEP INFOMRING EVERY ONE to prevent them from falling in this trap.
pretty much like ZORO!! or ROBIN HOOD hhhhhhh
Okay so I double checked what you said. This is extremely weird. So most coins that are POW will list circulating supply and "Max supply". Some simply don't mention max supply because there is no max. So okay if you look at Bitcoin it shows 17 million circulating, 21 million maximum. Litecoin 57 million and 84 million. I've check with quite a few coins on this. So here is whats weird... BitTube says 80 million circulating and 82 million "Total". Why does it say "Total" and not maximum? Is this a mistake on coinmarketcap behalf? I have no clue what they even mean by "total". However this is obviously misleading regardless of whose fault it is. This might not even be the fault of BitTube, but it is indeed pretty weird, they should ask CMC to correct it. I don't think so many investors lose money necessarily because of this though. After all the bear market wiped out about 90% off the face of almost all popular altcoins.
From reading a blog on BitTube I saw them explain their supply curve and it looks about the same as other projects. It's definitely not the best supply curve but it's not the worst (Zcash was the worst I had ever seen for early investors).
Other than that, there is probably no reason to bother this project... the marketcap is already pretty low. Best to just cut your losses and move on man. I personally do really like the idea of using IPFS with a DPOS type of system and giving mining rewards to people who watch with their computer or post videos. As for this project, I've got no clue. There is d.tube and bit.tube and I am not entirely sure what the differences are. However it is a step in the right direction as long as there is absolutely no moderation whatsoever, I think there should actually be no copyright protection (why, the internet should be free... monetize elsewhere). Also I think the drawback of any system similar to DPOS is too few nodes so any system that tries this should do blockchain pruning and share block rewards and let block size be dynamic. That way it scales and isn't centralized whatsoever.
I'm a bit bummed out by everyone trying to capitalize on the crypto boom when they should be focusing on innovating and pushing technology forward. Also it's even more disheartening to see investors not invest in projects that do hard work and make working software. I've been dealing with this issue for over 4 years ever since I released BitHalo(which is free software). But still if this particular project focuses on innovation and technicals purely without any centralization whatsoever then it's all good and I hope it does well. Someone should probably check all the code too because I think too often people aren't vetting code on all these crypto projects.
