relentlessly promoting... e.g. showed up on #bitcoin and within a week had shared the link 35 times.
This is an exaggeration. Show me a one-week period in the #bitcoin IRC logs where I link to the MMGen project 35 times. You can’t.
custom non-standard cryptography to generate keys for users
MMGen’s private key derivation relies entirely on SHA256, SHA512 and HMAC. Public keys are generated using your and sipa’s very own libsecp256k1. Don’t see anything “non-standard” here.
The claims on the page are outright false (e.g. saying that its quantum safe in ways bip32 are not)
Thank you. I’ve removed these claims. For the record, however, BIP32
does use ECC to generate non-hardened keys and is therefore
not quantum-safe if used in this way. I do realize that this point is largely moot today, as modern wallets use hardened keys, so such claims could indeed be viewed as misleading.
incompetent...lying
Evidence? You infer this based on a cursory reading of the project’s README page and what you take to be the overly zealous self-promotion of its author? Have you even looked at the code?
I’ve always had the highest respect for you, but you’ve overstepped your authority here.
