Hi Zuep.

The PR Firm actually like the Black Shield concept. I myself have reservations but they thought it would provide a warm and fuzzy feeling to a lot of would-be investors.

Like I said, I am not sold on it. I like the idea of a free free market, but at the very same time the maniulation tactics used by large groups is unsettling. Should thedoge fight fire with fire so to speak? I don't know... I think at the very least it will be an interesting experiment.



The existence of something like Black Shield is totally consistent with the idea of a free market, in fact it is the fact that we have a free market that allows us as individuals to decide to put our collective resources to use in a particular way free from any interference.

I understand how it could come across as anti-free market, as it appears that we are trying to 'correct' the market with Black Shield, however this is not the case. If the whales are free to alter the price to add volatility then we are just as free to reduce that volatility. In the end the market will decide what happens to Blackcoin and that is how free markets should work.

if 22k breaks expect some panic
and why 22? just because it did not happen at 25, 24 and 23 as the likes of you also predicted?
and even if: less people than in more than a month have their coins at exchanges, whoever panics there doesn't want to hold anyways.

Show me my predictions.  I have not predicted anything.  I used the word *if*.

Which I was pretty close on, but it wasn't a troll/bearish post.


How did you come up with those projections? TA? And what's your projection for the next few weeks? Cool

for those who want to know what rat4 is up to,, check GitHub/BC.
(and remember, he's a dev, so compilers, debugging and GitHub are his domain, which is fine with me  Grin)

I've heard quite a bit about Soepkip's shorts but haven't actually seen them, they must have been very fetching indeed  Wink

Yup I thought I had made my mind up about Iconic, but after his comments over the past week or so then finally his transition into full blown egoist, I'm pretty sure I know what to do when I see/hear the name Iconic (ignore).

I'm just glad he hasn't seen a satoshi from me, had I discovered Blackcoin even a week earlier that very well may have been the case.

I replied to you post on the other thread (before it an my reply were deleted)

...

Now you are up to date

Many many thanks for that acseric and thanks for replying to my original post too.

I got into Blackcoin maybe about a week or so before the Wallstreet stuff was announced, before we even had a subreddit, and since that time I have seen nothing to corroborate the idea that Iconic's net contribution to this commuinity has been positive. He must have been Jesus before because right now he has turned into a bit of an egotistical dictator.

Its a shame really because Blackconi needs people who are dedicated, creative, and can make things happen, Iconic appeared to be one of those people. But with all the baggage, negativity, contradictions and now straight up arbitrary behaviour, hes totally not worth it. In the end I'd rather he f*cked off back to Mint and do 'wonderful' things for them instead.

True that.  Initially, I was a huge supporter of Iconic.  I thought the BlackCoin cards were genius.  I loved his guerrilla marketing spirit, and I thought that the Wallstreet promotion was going to be an awesome piece of viral marketing.  Then it all went crazy - there was a power struggle for control of the coin by iconic.  He indicated that the foundation was incompetent,  and at the same time was part of a conspiracy that was alternately wither trying to push the price up or push the price down, or both simultaneously.  He seemed more and more unstable and angry.  Then a bunch of trolls started trolling him, and he lost it to the point that he wouldnt even answer people that had actual questions about his plans or the status of his projects, etc.

Now we are where we are.  I think most Blackcoiners have moved on from Iconic and his merry band.  Things are moving forward, and a lot of really good people are doing some really good things for the coin.  Frankly, if the biggest misstep we have is soepkip's shorts, I think we are doing great.

I welcome the panic short term because is shakes out the weak hands.  Anyone who is interested in the long term success of the coin should not care about short term price movement.

Price remains strong. This is silly to think just because there was a constant downtrend people should be worried. Let the non-believers cash out. Seriously. It only affects your wallet in the short term.

If you want the questions you asked there answered, ask them here and I will do my best to explain what happened.

Here is what I wrote there:


I am glad I saw this before it gets moderated out.

I was here just after Iconic did some great things. He got Blackcoin some publicity - around the time the pump occurred up to 80k.

Then he announced the Walstreet promotion. Everyone was excited. The foundation didnt enthusiastically support it, and he got all butthurt. Spiraled down from there into total madness, and the original thread was closed.

3 new threads were opened (this one, the other one, and an unmoderated on by troiste) Iconic made Troiste close his unmoderated thread so he could remove all the posts that he didnt agree with, while claiming that he welcomed open communication.

Then he spent the entire time spreading FUD and bashing the coin.

This is not troll.. it's just that BC doesn't have interest.Or it's interest is going down every day.
Why?
It's the same story like any other altcoins.
I'm sure that devs and people is working and are good guys, but there are a lot of coins out there,and BC in another one.
Competition is hard.
You have to be very excellent or have a very nice features,like darkcoin or Nxt to survive in this far west.
Just look the charts, and compare with any other altcoins that has already died .It's very similar.

I have nothing personal against BC, it's just my opinion.This op


All valid questions.  If you really want the answers without all the misinformation, just check the Blackcoin reddit.  If you want drama and innuendo, stay here and keep getting confused by the mixed messages.

This is a good observation, but you should source the original.
