I was watching and buying this coin from 2014 as I have a science background and found the concept insteresting. My username then was Shifu77, but I find I can’t log in with that account anymore due to something about a hack deactivating old accounts for this site that haven’t been used for a long time.
I had been buying EMC2 in small 20,000 coin batches then through Allcoin as that used to be one of the few coin exchange stocks that carried Einsteinium at the start. In total I bought over 200,000 coins then but lost most of the coins as I was stupid enough to leave them on exchanges that went down.
I also loaded EMC2 funds onto the Einsteinium twitter bot to give out to other Scientists, but I can’t seem t get those funds back anymore.
I’ve been away from the altcoin scene for a few years, and so came back when I saw the price surge on EMC2. Does anyone know if the old Twitter bot commands still work (I just tried it to get my balance, but got no reply).
Having a long standing coin is great, but the current EMC2 seems to have little to do with its original founding concept.
I believe the current concept is a bit different from the founding concept, all idea's grow and change once the idea is launched to the masses, I keep buying in to EMC2 as it goes down cause very few coin developers are around to support the coin they launched and EMC2 devs are always working toward making it better for the crypto society, the latest Ann may have not sat well with it's community and investors but as the producers strive to push for a non centralized coin some people might not see the current development as progress yet the move is ripping the control of the blockchain away from corporate entity's - the same corporate entity's that have enabled the launch of btc futures and the same entity's that are working toward a centralized style of crypto trading that the top 5 are experiencing as Billions of dollars are beginning to flood the market, EMC2 is not bound to a central government and with it's mining going to GPU it will allow anyone in the world to hash EMC2 and profit from those of us that use it, buy it, trade it, hodl it, and even from those that just like it without holding it but believe in decentralizing currency.
A coin like this to move into a GPU environment might seem like suicide to some that have no idea of the work behind decentralizing the currency of the world, but, to some of us it is the biggest move a popular coin can make in these day's as other coins strive just to be a top tradeable crypto coin.
I personally would like to shake the hands of the team behind EMC2 and let them know that in these times of high stakes I admire their efforts of keeping the power amongst the people.
