The new way to instamine. Give your buddies working builds and source so they can mine. Post nonworking builds and source for everyone else. Ignore requests for working nodes so that nobody else can sync up to the correct fork. Claim everything is perfect. I wouldn't have these thoughts if it wasn't for the amount of people. Many of them long time members having problems compiling or getting synced up. Then DEv says they have only mined 2 blocks themselves and all is good. No relaunch. It's your fault you used the binaries provided that won't sync to the correct fork. You wasted your time? Oh well. Me and my buddies have most of the coins. We're just waiting to get listed on exchange so we can dump and run.
The coin launch was a joke and a relaunch should have happened.
Dev says spent tens of thousands on development and launches with non working binaries and buggy source code that people couldn't compile.
Like I said earlier. Could have been good but now it's just another shitcoin mined by a few people in on the scam.
I don't have many friends on this forum and I'll likely have even more enemies after this post but it's clear as day what's going on here. This was a planned unfair launch so a few could get a jump on mining while the difficulty was low. Even a blind monkey could see this.
There was a thread for over a month where the developers were working on the code and everyone had a chance to help out and get things running smoothly on their computers. It's a completely new tech, and yet surprisingly easy to get running on Linux(not that different than bitcoin itself).
Please don't over-exaggerate the two hours that the Windows miners were locked out. For weeks there was a test Linux client available to all. For those of you who joined today and are just in it for a quick profit, move along. For anyone else sincerely interested in getting some coins, there's already a good trading thread:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--713718What about all the posts from people that couldn't compile the source? These were not new members but people that know their way around compiling source. I tried on three different boxes and got build errors on all of them. Also, why did the requests for a working node go unanswered? I was sincerely interested in mining this coin but there were some serious obstacles that many people were having.
The Windows users that wasted hours trying to mine this coin will likely feel different about being "locked out". Then there are the ones that were mining only to find out that the coin was forking and all their coins were worthless or disappeared when they finally got on the correct fork after the difficulty was so high that they couldn't get any coins. So I don't think I'm exaggerating at all.
The first few pages of the two threads for this coin says it all. But like every other shitcoin there will be a base of fanboys claiming it's the best thing since sliced bread. Nothing new here.
