damned if i'm going to be the only one not spamming my opinion over and over and over, so here's a recap:
step 1) create the most technologically advanced, most ambitious coin ever
step 2) actually deliver on your promises continually
step 3) prices starts going up
step 4) other communities are threatened and the trolls start FUDding
step 5) Fudders control the forum to make sure that the story is always about them, is about fear, uncertainty and doubt.
step 6) investors laugh at how pathetic these attempts at bullying are, and the supreme irony of all the fud attempts (Exibit A: These devs who are about to release the world's first decentralised working anon cryptocurrency are themselves anonymous! They must be scammers! They people fighting for the right to privacy and developing a system in which we can all act privately, are themselves private! They are obviously crooks! I will repeat this over and over and over and over until people think that it's a legitimate complaint. I will dominate the conversation by being the loudest and sling the most mud, i will do it continually until it's actually believed as fact.) I mean, how do you even respond to stuff like this without some hilarious gif that tries to sum up how desperate they are getting?
step 7) now the story is about how "immature" we who have always supported the coin are, by dealing with our own fudders in a comedic way. Really, let us deal with our own FUDders however the hell we want. It's really unbelievable. We can't win. The FUD wins everytime. This coin really has the possibility to shape the world in which we live, and all this thread is is FUD, and when we defend against the fud we're then belittled for doing that. It's FOX News tactics at it's finest.
It's not the coins fault! they're just continually developing and doing amazing work. Yet Everytime the conversation veers off course and then the next 4 pages are all about some bullshit, the trolls are all smiling, and the thousands of pro-cloak backers are trying to figure out what just happened. it's click-bait, it's troll-bait, it's all intended to keep the conversation away from the REAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS going on right now. (COUGH POSA COMING OUT THIS WEEK) and by the way, any REAL investor knows A) to do their own homework, and B) that when something successful has so many trolls trying to bring it down, that it's probably doing something pretty special. We weren't born yesterday, give me a fucking break.
