Not buying into instamined DASH/Darkcoin scam neither.
Do not believe the Monero hype. Do your own research.

Believe the Bytecoin BCN hype instead!
I did my research, I'm not buying a coin that was 80% premined.

Cross-posting FYI (Monero and his official forum, some facts about the work they are doing):
No. The reality is that you have no community, no development, no markerting. It's not me saying, you can check it here:
Work in progress -> 3 threads
Funding Required -> 2 threads
You don't have any "Developers Thread" or "testing" area. Nothing. In Academic and technical you have only 9 threads!!!!
You are an absolute fraud. It's good that the real investors do some research, Monero is only a big hype.
Keep spamming, trolling and fudding hard the competition. That's the only you can do.
Please stay on topic; Where is your stuff? Development, testing, marketing, something?
You are telling me you have only your "we are superior" thread:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xmr-monero-a-secure-private-untraceable-cryptocurrency-583449
And the speculation thread here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xmr-monero-speculation-753252
That's it? All the rest is fudding and spam?
My God.

Just when you think you've heard it all.
That is the best nugget from a Monero thread I've seen in along time.

Your avatar remembers me of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ofpaF5pkE8
How does it feel being part of XMR history ~forever~ ?

I'm in the process of writing a research paper for my night school in regard to cryptocurrencies, their capacity to be an alternative to the fiat banking paradigm and the various pros and cons of anonymity and fungibility.
Creative Writing and Fiction were also one of my favorite classes in school.
Good luck!

Added: The fact that this is a blatant Monero spam thread wasn't missed. One of the better ones I might add.
Debating BTC against Monero is a valid argument which is neither an announcement nor speculation, thus is fair game for its own thread. I don't see how its any different from the smaller "LTC vs. DASH" thread that has since come into being, and no doubt in time there will probably be a "DOGE vs. XDN" conversation.
What's curious though is that you've chosen not to acknowledge that the majority of monero spam originated/originates from forces hostile to Monero - nefarious actors that appear at first glance to be pro-Monero, but who in reality have other intentions. In fact, it looks as though you're actively contributing to that illusion.
Why's that?
easy up there cowboy, don't you know that BitcoinEXpress is a confirmed 'coin killer'?
but I agree with you. these monero threads are basically like crypto blow-jobs now, pretty much the same every time, but who's ever gonna knock one back hey!
XMR is still the best game in town , so it gets all the love/hate

Nothing wrong with a good infomercial. Just imagine what Tony Robins could do with XMR between 11pm and 1am on the TV.
Seriously, what newbie user of crypto is going to wade through hundreds of pages of old threads trying to find the good oil on all the alt coins available now? None, it's just too hard now so they all start from the latest posts and start trying to piece stuff together. There's just too many coins now to track, so these 'infomercial' threads are actually very useful.
Keep up the good work monerians
Just one problem.
Mprep tends to trashcan Infomercial threads.

Just listened to all of the Monero talk at the Bitcoin Conference. Was very impressed.

I agree that is a good video
To what extent is Monero exposed to criticism from the mainstream in regards to nefarious intent (tax evasion, money laundering, drugs, terrorism etc) in a way that Bitcoin is not? Is the libertarian argument enough to combat this?
With regard to your last question: no, the libertarian argument is not sufficient but the "slag on DASH" method seems to work.
If you have good devs that are capable of innovating, then marketing will take care of itself.
Or marketing can be seen to later, once the codebase is more-or-less stable. This approach limits the spread of an innovative cryptocurrency to the self-appointed early adopters, who have less reason to complain about hardforks et. al. than Joe Average does. It makes for a far less fractious community on the way up.
Hi everyone. Thanks for your responses thus far, especially the excellent answers from GingerAle and BinaryFate.
What are the variances in attitudes to the darkweb? To what extent is Monero exposed to criticism from the mainstream in regards to nefarious intent (tax evasion, money laundering, drugs, terrorism etc) in a way that Bitcoin is not? Is the libertarian argument enough to combat this? And if not, what are the implications of living under a Bitcoin dominated environment if pseudonymity is the only protection?
Also, please can I politely ask that we keep things on topic. This is a discussion about Bitcoin compared with Monero only - discussions about other coins should take place elsewhere if possible. Apologies if that wasn't clear - I've now changed the title of the thread accordingly.

I don't know about darkweb - don't really deal with it.
Monero and mainstream aren't a thing yet. The "nefarious intent" component has not been explored by the mainstream. For whatever reasons, DASH (aka darkcoin) has more mainstream (well, at least cryptocurrency mainstream) exposure, so there might be some insights into "nefarious intent" with a cryptocurrency with privacy features.
> the implications of living under a Bitcoin dominated environment if pseudonymity is the only protection?
that was detailed in some of fluffypony's talk. But the implications are obvious and many - people tracking your money. Its big brothers / big marketing dream. I mean, its already done in our existing world, bitcoin just makes it unavoidable. Your company pays you in bitcoin and then they follow the money... the car dealer runs a "credit check" and can get a really really really really good estimate of how much money you actually have available. Its impossible to be pseudonymous in real life. You walk into a store and pay for something in bitcoin, owner now knows your address and face, etc.
The view key answers this by letting you have the option of working with law enforcement and tax agencies. Most people don't want to break the law, and many who will use Monero will be more interested in having private and secure transactions for their business or personal affairs than buying drugs on the dark market. Monero is like cash and cash is both bad and good money--you need a currency to be able to both to be considered fungible.

Hmm let me see...Bitcoin or Monero? I'll choose Monero as my favorite crypto.
Good choice.
Bitcoin's radical transparency limits its disruptive potential.
