Why blame the exchange while people are dumb enough to buy it? Yes, I think exchanges should do a better job at listing coins and not just take a bribe, but if people are blindly going to buy shit without even researching it then it really is their own damn fault. At least IMO.
there is no way to research a motherfucking scam.got it? it cant be done.
what you did here is an old school fascist technique known as 'victim blaming.'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victim_blaminglet me quote:
"Victim blaming occurs when the
victim of a crime or any wrongful act is held entirely or partially responsible for the harm that befell them.
The study of victimology seeks to mitigate the perception of victims as responsible.[1] There is a greater tendency to blame victims of rape than victims of robbery in cases where victims and perpetrators know one another."
quit fucking blaming victims of crime because you want to protect a nearly dead system of 'quick coin listings' that is costing us as a community.
fuck protecting scammers. lets put them to the fire! lets hang the scoundrels.
stop saying that people can 'research' their way out of a scam where some dickhead changes the code and then quickly dumps 20 btc of coins that wasnt supposed to exist.
no one could have done research to stop that and no is to blame except the scammer and bittrex.
bittrex could have checks in place to stop this from happening. they could manually review a withdrawl of 20 btc and stop the fucking scammer and refund customers.
yes, they have the power to do this.
I am not for quick coin listings at all. I have stated in past posts that I think there should be AT LEAST a 30 wait period for exchanges to even consider adding a new coin.
It's the alt world where everyone is out to make a quick buck. I know for a fact for a few BTC Bittrex will list any coin. Is an exchange going to turn down a $1500 dollar bribe because the coin might be a scam? In the real world business, sure, but in this wild west of the alt coin world, it's never going to happen. You can yell at me and use the word fuck as many times as possible, but investors have to get smarter. I have never see people throw money around in such a messy fashion as the alt coin world, it's insane.
You tell me there is no way to research a scam. Why are people so willing to throw their money at shit they know nothing about? People have thrown so much money at IPO's where there is no product up front, no wallet and no future. But people are still willing to throw money at it. If anyone is an exchange buying a coin they know NOTHING about it's their own damn fault they lost money.
Even if you do look into a coin and it says no pre-mine, check the damn blockchain. Oh look there was a GIANT pre-mine, let's not invest in this.
