it doesnt surprise me that the price goes down since the devs are anonymous ,look at blackcoin and their transparency
Didn't change the fact bitcoin went up to 10 billion ++ with 99% of the people not knowing who is satoshi
Jesus people. One smart ass comment after another and nobody gets anywhere.
You are both wrong and this kind of lazy 'sick burn lol' debate is utterly counterproductive.
1: Tyson187, you are crossing up the goals of transparency with anonymity. One of the main selling points of crypto is that the system works without any dependency on who made it, why they made it or what their agenda is or was. This is because it is transparent by design: all of the moving parts are visible, balances are visible, specs and code are visible. If you know *how* the system works and can follow all the processes flowing through it, it doesn't matter *who* made it work. Anonymity does not obscure transparency; quite the opposite: it is transparency that makes identity irrelevant, and thus makes anonymity possible. This is crypto 101.
2: all the others piling on taking easy "huuu durr satoshi lol" potshots without addressing the underlying question: Yeah, congrats. You understand a basic crypto 101 issue, anonymity doesn't necessarily conflict with transparency. But Tyson187's comment was actually about transparency. He just chose a particularly bad way to bring it up. Comparing bitcoin's success, when it had no peers or competition in the crypto space, and all of the spotlight focused on it for a very long time, to an obscure alt buried in the middle of 300 other competitors all fighting for a tiny slice of a slice of a slice of the market, is lazy and impotent reasoning.
You can't just expect to do what Bitcoin did and reproduce its success. The game has changed a LOT.
Now you need to offer more to get and hold people's attention. Some of that is innovation, like PoT. Some of it is community engagement, which in some (and by some i mean almost all) cases can include a highly visible presence by the dev team to encourage people that they are committed to its success. It ALSO includes not actively driving away potential new community members and investors by being a juvenile dickface to them just because you think there are no repercussions to you personally. Have you noticed the FLT price right now? if you are holding any of it, you can thank those in this community who enjoy promoting a "dickface culture" for at least part its downward spiral in value. We all could have been sitting on the next BlackCoin right now and made 10 or 50x the initial investment, using that to fund more and more resources and make kidcoin able to quit his job and work on FLT full time - by being supportive, engaged and by responding thoughtfully to questions and criticism and using that dialogue to refine and improve the "Flutterverse".
But no, we like to get by with laziest, bullshit zero-effort remarks and make more people sell out in disgust. You know the term 'own goal' right?
There are not enough poles holding up this tent to go kicking any of them down for no reason.
Cue the predictable "FUD" "GTFO troll" comments from mental midgets, it usually starts happening right about here.
