Crypto is a Clown World, it`s more about creating a huge hype about "the next big thing" than about serious work.
While I appreciate your honesty, you are completely wrong here. Crypto in itself is just a technology - it is not bad or good - it just is. The clowns in crypto insist on pretending crypto is a Clown World in order to justify their scammy behavior. Creating undue hype in order to market a scam is nothing new and has been done since the beginning of civilization.
OK, so instead of being a clone of Pivx its now a clone of Particl: still, absolutely nothing new or innovative being done here. There is some plagiarism happening in the new white paper but it isn't from Particle, its from Zcoin.
From the new Ghost white paper (copied words are bolded):
Quote
Usually, cryptocurrency transactions are broadcasted across the network using the Gossip protocol, in which every node sends the transaction to all the nodes, to which it is connected. While the current system is efficient, it is also possible to de-anonymize the original sender of the txs [Fan18]. Dandelion++ makes a simple but crucial change to the current transaction broadcasting pattern.
Instead of sending transactions to all connected nodes on the network, Dandelion++ initially sends them to only one other node. This next node then randomly decides if it Ghost, a peer-to-peer privacy-oriented electronic cash system broadcasts the transaction on to just one, or all of its connected peers. With the introduction of the element of chance, the propagation pattern now becomes unpredictable, making it infeasible to trace a specific transaction back to the original tx broadcaster’s IP address.

Usually, the way that cryptocurrency transactions spread across the network is very predictable. While the current system is effective, it is also vulnerable to low-cost, large-scale deanonymization attacks. Dandelion++ makes a simple but crucial change to the previous broadcasting pattern.
Instead of sending transactions to all neighbors, Dandelion++ initially sends them to only one other node. This next node then rolls a dice to decide if it passes it on to just one or all of its neighbors. With the introduction of this element of chance, the propagation pattern now becomes unpredictable, making it infeasible to follow the transaction back to the sender.

This isn't plagiarism but it certainly is a lie:

Why Particl?
When Ghost was initially started, it was an unanimous decision from the development team to fork the codebase from this open source project . Further to their initial bitcoin fork, they have extended the functionality of their network in a direction that similarly aligned their goals with the ones Ghost has.

1. The initial idea was actually to clone Pivx and hope nobody would notice.
2. After getting caught, they just cloned a smaller project instead of bothering to create anything original.
This project has quite a few markings of a scam and if they had an official account on this forum I would probably tag & flag them.
Don't buy this bullshit unless you like losing money.
