Topic: [FUD] Top Shitcoin Excuses of 2016 (Read 1290 times)

I like this one but not quite a defense of a coin.
I left 1 more spot open in case we find another cliche.

Thats a good one. What about... Its just bottomed out so the whales can get in cheap.

When i got interested in cryptocurrencies in 2014 after Bitcoin's first impressive price explosion, I actually fell for the number 5 (It's the Silver, implying Bitcoin is the Gold).
I started to mine and keep Litecoins. Needless to say the number 5 magic has worn off for me after awhile and i started to look into other cryptocurrencies ... and the rest is history as they say 

The cryptoscene can really be one big learning experience.

The humour in these forums is what brings me back. I suppose even those who demonstrate a lack of humour sometimes generate the best laughs.

Wait! You forgot. "It's the criminal coin"

I really hoped users see this as a reflection of what does or does NOT work.
In a fun way of course 

People the same old routine is not pushing forward any of your coin agendas.
i say that side stepping the argument of which ones are "legit"

We have a new year and i hope you see that things have to change.
Years roll by and what have any of the Altcoins accomplished ?

For 2017 we will see SunnyKing bump his weekly topic on PeerCoin then lock it again.
Which i have said is funny because locking it has decimated his exposure to the world.
But i guess he is far more concerned about being hit with FUD or something
than risking.. adoption.
Worth pointing out i have always supported his coins too.

And FUD ?
You can all view that as a good and bad thing.
What you all tend to do is side step that it is in fact warranted most of the time.
Why in gods name do you all think these coins deserve the benefit of the doubt ?
The entire history of Crypto means YES we should FUD everything always.. FIRST !
We should have FEAR and we should have UNCERTAINTY and we should have DOUBT.
Because of the context of the situation across Crypto.

Anyway.. Bitcointalk has given us the opportunity and we have abused it.
I don't blame the site for offering the freedom ..i blame the greedy losers with no morals.
The governments are fast approaching this stuff more and more.
Big name companies are eye balling this stuff.
So if there was ever a time to get our shit together it's NOW !

I think to move forward we will all have to make compromises.. i am willing to.
I want Crypto in general to move forward.. hell even if that meant i ended up supporting a coin i don't like.

To summarize i hope users consider supporting a project longer term.
Instead of trying to profit off anything short term.

Crypto desperately needs SUPPORTERS !

..think of that next time you fire off one of the cliche'd crypto defense retorts.

Said no genuine, open-source, cause ever.

Your thread has actually good humor in it, while actually reflecting on the situation on this forum. ETH and ETC (albeit arguably better because it isn't a bail-out coin) are prime examples of overvalued shitcoins that are being hyped up because of similar excuses. They even went as far as pumping it during a Bitcoin rally (today).

How would you know ?
Did you forget saying you had me on ignore all along numerous times ?
Took an ad out ?

THAT is why i have railed on about Monero shills for years.
..because you are bold face liars.

Your allegation is simply ridiculous.
And if you could have provided any proof to back it up i am sure you would have.
So it is just another attack on my character here on a personal level.
And you Morono shills have been slandering me all along instead of defending your coin.

And whether another coin is bad does not negate the fact Monero is bad.
Two wrongs do not make a right.
Like you guys have been harping on lately.. saying things such as well, "ETH's block chain is big" (so it's ok ours is too)

Fungible ?
I never bothered to debate whether it was needed or not.
I simply posted it is used as an excuse here for years.
Get the difference smart ass ?

And take a wild guess who has been spouting off about it ?
I started calling generalizethis "Mr. Fungible" long ago for a reason  
He alone has used that term more than every other user combined in all of crypto history.
So my ears always perk up when some brand new dummy account pops up talking EXACTLY like him.
There always has been a problem with sock-puppet accounts with Monero shill's.
Because they are dishonest deceitful greedy pricks.

we are a company - we do need 20% mining tax 4 developement in the next 4 years - but no wallet ^^

we have to build a foundation. after that we can use our funds and start development.

LOL, you're the biggest fudder I ever seen on this forums. Seriously!

Spoetniktard has no life nor family to speak of and is simply jealous of others successes in life. While he sits in his yellowing heavily soiled underpants pretending to be a new age keyboard SJW each and every night I'm personally busy making love to my model wife whilst checking my investments. This is indeed another of his pointless bitter twisted threads. Best put on ignore.

Mine is: "I am FUDing this coin out of concern for noobs" (but somehow forgot to mention that he put an ad out for anyone to buy his FUD services, and shortly thereafter started going hardcore after a certain anon coin while ignoring its biggest competitor, but I'm sure there's nothing to this story at all--just a coincidence ) Because we all know how the OP never harps endlessly on coincidences adding up to TRUTH!

My guess is that Sputz will never own up to it, but if someone wants to make some money, just get him to make a bet that the comment (it may have been a whole thread, but my memory isn't that good) doesn't exist--it's from 12-18 months ago and coincides with the rise in his Monero hate, but his oddly respectful tone of dash, which anyone has fact checked knows is a scam. My guess is they paid him--though he was modestly anti-monero before that, but it was inline with all the other coins he fuds.

But #4 isn't an excuse

#12 We just want your BTC

#11 -  bitcoin sucks  at money laundering

Yup.. you guys are right i heard all those lots in 2016.

- It's Fungible
- It's the Silver to Bitcoin being Gold
- Community

Added to the main post thanks guys great submissions LOL 

'But it's fungible, which gives it value! Bitcoin isn't fungible.'

Edit: Wait, this thread is for excuses?

@shyliar
You got #7 on the list congrats  

There is many..

I think #1 might be "One Day"
Often used with future plans & adoption etc.

Or... XYZ coin is legit because.. i made amount of profit off it.
Because don't forget guys, a scam is a shitcoin i did not make money off of.

But lets see what sort of suggestions we got before finalizing the list.
And lets hope we get some new retorts next year.
I am looking forward to a full year of mad ROI'z and Shitcoining shenanigans.
And if we're lucky the SEC will do more than issue Investor Fraud Alerts about Crypto-Currencies.

Oh yeah, and "Innovation"
