Just wondering how long these can last. Everytime they want to carry test they will need funding. Where does the free money comes from and for what purpose for all these remains a question.
Some think the purpose for these tests is the agenda of people involved in the XT fork situation. There are players in the Bitcoin economy with money to burn, and they might be using the tests to force through bigger blocks because it suits their agenda. Coinwallet.eu said their stress testing days are over, then announced this giveaway that's spamming the network exactly the same as a stress test does. What worries me is if they announce further similar giveaways in the future that spam the network worse than this one.
There are definitely someone or a group of people behind this, that knew the inner workings of Bitcoin and what would cause it to crash 'n burn. The timing for this attack is
even more sinister. I presume that this is only a front company for a group of people who might be out to hurt Bitcoin or it's image. We know very little about them and they
are not saying much, so it's open for discussion. In my opinion nobody with a long term vision for their company, would attack Bitcoin and think people would be cool with that.
They are hurting the community by doing this, and they could care less.
