Just answer these questions:
1. The devs. Are they scientists and what is their status in the science community? If they plan to give out money to prospective scientists, they
need to know what's going on in the science world, or else they'll end up donating money to the wrong people.
2. The partners. Why are there no real scientific communities behind this project? Only "BlueLab" and "Chainwork Industries" which have no effect in the scientific research field. How about having something like the Planetary Society behind the coin?
3. Who have the devs donated money to, and how much? What was the criteria for giving money to these people?
4. What is the main purpose of this coin? If the main point is to give money to promising science projects, why not collect money
directly to science instead of making people buy a coin? Unless certain people wanted to make billions in the process, of course..
Just exactly who is going to be confused?
Just type "Einsteinium" into Google and you'll find that you get results for two things with the same name. How hard was it to come up with a unique name like Bitcoin or Litecoin? Even Sciencecoin would've been better.
it is my understanding that holders of EMC2 tokens will get to vote on the spending, not the devs
Two notable points here: the voting does not take place yet and we're living on the promise that one day it will, and just think about this for a while: how much does your typical EMC2 holder know about the science community? Most investors are 15-year-olds from developed countries that are trying to get rich.
You can make your points without any arrogance or condescension
I'm sorry if I sound like a douche, but please keep in mind that since you guys have invested in this, you're the ones with an emotional, thus irrational, attachment to this coin. I look at it from an objective standpoint.
I don't plan on buying groceries with Ethereum, or even Bitcoin for that matter
That would be because ETH is not a currency - it's a crypto fuel for smart contracts. It serves a real purpose as a token. BTC gives value to all the other cryptos.
A century after one of if not the greatest intellectual insight in human history, no-one has been able to better his theory. Not for lack of trying either. Utter failure by all the scientists in the world working on fundamental physics to either unify the other physical theories with relativity, or replace it. 500 years from now, people will remember Einstein's name, as they do Newton today. No-one will remember you. If Einstein was alive today, he would not even know you exist. But thanks for registering your thoughts with the general public. Now we know some random guy doesn't care for Einstein. There's no love lost the other way, believe me.
You sort of made my next point yourself without even realizing it amidst your emotional rant: why is your coin named after Einstein instead of Newton, for example? I think Newton is the greatest scientist our world has seen, and many would agree. He's definitely my favorite and his impact on science was the greatest so far. Get my point? It's stupid to name the coin after a scientist because people don't agree on who it should be. I think it should be named after me or Newton, as I will surely derive the theory of everything.
I go chu man, I know how you feel.
It was uncomfortable even for me watching that SURGE, but you know what, better get used to it, because we are hitting 100k sat in the near future.
Emotions gonna kill you in this job.
If you manage to go over your bitterness, buy some, just as insurance so you do not jump off the bridge when that happens.
still loosing? my investments are getting dwindle continuously. Several hours to hardfork .. What happens to EMC2?
