I should thank Spoetnik for raising some points that give me an opportunity to clarify some issues. But I hope we don't get in any lengthy cat fights, because it distracts from real work.
Our work on altcoins is
critically important for our survival as a human species. <--- PLEASE CLICK THAT LINK!!
You seem to once again give me the impression you don't get it.
Coding complexity ?
Yup.. it's pretty much paramount.
Open source is the solution. Given enough contributors, all complexity is shallow. The free market works it out.
For example, anything I might bring to the ecosystem, is my contribution to the ecosystem. The crypto ecosystem will digest it and decide whether my particular fork of the action is worthy of a leadership role, yet in either case my contribution will be absorbed into the collective knowledge of the ecosystem.
There is far more to making and getting a currency used then the coder with his head buried in the screen.
You seem to have tunnel vision on that one single aspect alone.
We need many focused experiments to end up with those which end up being useful.
Shelby you are indeed smart and an asset to crypto i think but i wish you would pull out and see the bigger picture more and with less controversial conspiracy theories.
Like you think bitcoin itself is a conspiracy.
And i get the feeling you want to make a Bitcoin Killer to right this wrong and defeat the conspirators.
My stance on Bitcoin is more nuanced than that.
It is very likely that Bitcoin was created by the DEEP STATE (the same one that is pulling the strings with Wikileaks that got Trump elected on purpose in order to blame the global collapse on the free market proponents) in order to force the destruction of the existing nation-state paper currencies in order to usher in a cashless society and their aims for a NWO.
They (Satoshi) clearly understood that the mining would become centralized and thus they would have complete control over the protocol.
However, I also believe that the scientists working for Rothschild et al, outsmarted their bosses. And I believe similar what the DARPA engineers did in the case of the WWW (see quote below) knew damn well that they were launching a decentralized experiment which would spawn better technologies which would displace Bitcoin and defeat the NWO plan.
Have you given much thought to getting the new currency used ?
There seems to be one thing we are lacking in crypto.. adoption.
Extensive thought. This will be revealed soon.
I am still trying to get back up to speed. My energy level is about at 50% of normal (which means I am too sleepy 50% of the normal waking hours) and my mind has finally started (as of last night) to start programming in my sleep again. I had lost this cognitive function over the past couple of years. And during the first 2 - 3 weeks of my anti-TB treatment, my energy levels was at about 5 - 10% and I could barely do anything but eat and sleep (and no thinking in my sleep).
Yesterday was the first day that I did technical work since before I started treatment on Jan. 21. Yesterday I read 6 chapters of a math and programming book in about 2 hours. And did extensive technical reading and research on comparing Go and JavaScript (especially the concurrency model).
And that is not because of a lack of good code.
I would wager that would be because you have coders selling the product.
Or maybe assuming the product will sell itself.
Which goes hand in hand with the negatives.
Such as Anon shit, dark markets, ICO's etc.
Do you think the average person out there likes that crap ? If they did we'd know
I agree there is a lot more hype than actual adoption (especially non-speculative adoption) of the altcoins.
Some level of hype is necessary to get some interest. I have a plan to achieve real adoption. Readers will just have to evaluate it when I reveal it. We can't discuss vaporware. And I will not try to refute your skepticism. You have every right to be skeptical and you might even end up being correct in the end in my case as well. All I can say, is I will be straight forward with the information at the appropriate time.
Note there is no ICO, there is nothing right now. So please hold your criticism until there is something to actually critique. Because bogging me down in cat fights won't help us get to the point where you can actually critique something that is announced.
I think you have a huge uphill climb...
I agree with that! I am not even 100% healthy yet. I have 27 more days of the intensive 4-drug antibiotics. Then after that 16 weeks of 2-drug regimen. But my energy level and digestion is gradually coming back towards normal now. And beyond the health, there are huge mountains to climb. Please don't add to my stress by reminding me. I just have to keep focus on climbing.
