Whether or not you are the leader of SolidCoin (and if you are not, then who is?), somebody in charge wrote and posted the article you linked on the official SolidCoin site. It speaks of very poor and unprofessional judgement. All SC bounties have run through you, as have all the announcements. You are the de facto spokesperson for the project, and if you don't want that, then perhaps somebody else over there should step up and make that announcement.

I guess it's just one of your values, that writing like mine and communicating the way I do is unprofessional. I'm sure many other also share it. But I won't change who I am to suit you, I have a personality, I like making jokes and I don't take myself too seriously. If eating some carbs in the morning and ending up with a diamond at night is the way you want to live then who am I to stop you?

I just find when people start saying subjective things they usually don't have any substance to whatever they are trying to get across.... that's one of my values. If you find something factual to say I'm all ears.

Again, totally unprofessional, and no true business would make such accusations. Do yourself a favor, hire a real PR firm and either run everything thru them or at least bounce it off them first. If you are going to try to be the world leader in digital currency then you should probably try to act like it.

Firstly, I am not a SolidCoin business, I haven't had enough time yet to start some. I'm just out there promoting a better currency, along with hundreds of others. I don't own "SolidCoin", but I own some SolidCoins, if that makes sense.

And I'm certainly not going to be the biggest winner if the currency goes beyond Bitcoin parity. Like I said the money thing isn't an issue to me, perhaps it is for others and if they can become wealthy off SolidCoin then I'm glad I can help.

I also don't want to be known as the "Leader" of SolidCoin, I feel like I'm just doing my part for a good cause. Others are also doing what they can because they want to live in a world where a currency like SolidCoin is commonly used and allows them economic freedom.

Unless, of course, it is an FBI project designed to disrupt Bitcoin... Wink

Why would the FBI disrupt Bitcoin with a BETTER version?

That makes no sense what so ever.

Now FBI money going towards obvious trolling is something a bit more realistic...

Actually it makes perfect sense. You can't get people to switch from Bitcoin unless your product is superior. Why would they? Of course you could troll that Bitoin is an FBI op, but that would only be icing on the cake.

Yes, because all real leaders always talk trough PR firms... Roll Eyes

I prefer to see openly what a person is all about than to trust the PR. I don't like to be brainswashed.

Look at Bruce. So many PR, and now we see what's behind all that... Tongue

Yeah, b/c looking like a 15 yr old Aspie w/ a keyboard is gonna get you a lot of followers. I don't care if CoinHunter is a douchenozzle and hates Bitcoin so much he froths at the mouth when thinking about it. I do care that his immature rantings are the public face of the SolidCoin project. The business and technical aspects attracted me to this flavor of coin. Unfortunately the fringe ravings will drive me (and others) away.

Has anyone here noticed Ruxum now allows trades SC for USD vice versa? Although they are now in private beta requiring invite codes to register. Anyone has IC's? I'm interested in trying out their site. This may also give SC +edge over BTC. They opened @ 0.105 $ per SC. Not bad!

I didn't see that. Holy molly not bad at all ! Cheesy

It's funny how I get accused for being a conspiracy theorist for writing that article yet people can claim whatever they want about me and it's "ok".

"Oh it's a team of people posting on a forum". "Oh it's a CIA plant" . It's also funny how no one has yet tried to refute anything in the article..... and no one will be able to provided they have good reading comprehension. Because NONE of it is a lie or mistruth.

Sane adults know that you cannot disprove a negative. In fact, going on the premise of the article about the FBI, one might reasonably conclude that SolidCoin is the FBI operation set up to disrupt Bitcoin. You can refute that until the end of time, but you cannot definitively prove SC is not a gov't op.

Again, totally unprofessional, and no true business would make such accusations. Do yourself a favor, hire a real PR firm and either run everything thru them or at least bounce it off them first.

This thread had some good information and some crap too. Normal.
Reading SolidCoin responses to some of the post has been informative, entertaining and yes, sometimes even close to embarrassing. Most of it was still good and looks like the guy believes in what he is doing.

Now he's post are stating to sound like cries for help by a hysterical 12 years old, who has a nervous brake down and has gone to a self destruct mode.

SolidCoin dude, take a chill pill and cool down. This is not how computer scientists, with decades long experience, act in public. Wink

I would say the same. In fact, I think maybe the person now posting as CoinHunter is not the same physical person as the one that started this thread. Too much discrepancy in the style and expressions of writing. And if he's doing his business deals at such a level of verbal exchange, well, I wouldn't touch them with a 10-foot stick.

It's also a misunderstanding of my personality I think, come on IRC and have a chat.

People need to give CoinHunter a break, he's put a lot of effort into getting this started. Most of the arguements against solidcoin have been either personal or vague and unarticulated. If you don't like SolidCoins, you dont have to use them.

That said, I think SC would do better in the long run if we focus on the positives of using it, and less on the negatives of BTC. Focusing on negatives might make potential supporters resentful. We owe the success of SC to BTC.

I pointed out in an earlier post that if he/they want to look reliable and trusted, they had better not engage in an "eye for an eye" debates, and drop to the level that they are accusing Bitcoin people of having.

Pity...

how can you expect to be taken seriously ?

If you want a guarantee of success you can look elsewhere. It's up to each person to make a decision about what they want to support, if you think there is too much "bs" and "lies" then no one is asking you to invest in a new currency. With the amount of negativity you have I'm not sure where your "best place" is to be honest. American Idol judge or something maybe?

My, how...unprofessional. I cannot see what he hoped to gain with that article. Appealing to the lunatic fringe, perhaps? The FBI making Bitcoin, really? Anybody who has issues with Bitcoin would already be using SC, and all this does is push any tentative users away. Couldn't take the professional route, had to go the drama/hype route? Seriously, would have gained a lot more people with 'our tx times are quicker, etc etc' vs. 'the feds invented bitcoin!!!1!'. How many businesses are going to read that article and think "I need to use SC over bitcoin"?? You really can't call yourself the 'bitcoin-killer' until you at least reach parity with bitcoin, and have somewhat more than 5% of the network.

Amazing to think that the 20,000 SC i've mined are going to be fairly worthless, thanks to one high school level post designed to reach out to the tin foil hat base. This does serve to prove that SC is a single man operation, because if 2 or 3 reasonable adults had proofed that article, it never would have been released. Again, very unprofessional in my opinion.

Haha are you kidding? If you truly think they are going to be "Worthless" go and sell them, they have value as of right now. So please. Do people seriously think I care if they sell SolidCoins? It's quite hilarious, I have an incoming stream of BTC that will always be there to buy them, and there are many thousands that want them.

If you think anything in that article is incorrect then please tell us what is. The fact is people are asking questions, and this answers a lot of them. If you don't like the answers you don't have to. No one is asking you to become wealthy thanks to SolidCoin, so if you think it's going to be worthless you simply need to go and sell them all and get back on the Bitcoin horse. See how well it goes for you.

Unlike most people I know the future of SolidCoin because many of the details haven't been released yet and many of the business relationships we have formed are also being held back. The only lunatic fringe are the people supporting bitcoin because it was first. There are massive issues with it, some which that article raise , many more which it doesn't.
