How is it ridiculous? Do you realize how many people are serving time in federals prisons for getting caught doing exactly what these devs are trying to get away with? (buying with insider information) This is called insider trading and it's ILLEGAL.
Thankfully a few people in this thread get it, the rest of you bagholders are fucking hopeless. No wonder you people get scammed so often.
You are slightly mistaken. Insider trading is a trading with an access to information which is not in public domain. But information about the fork was in public domain (I won't go further in building parallels, you can't operate this conception at all, but if you like, than think of the fact that devs are issuers, not investors). We are sorry that we did't send you a personal invitation
did you see the post dates on the OP's comment ?
that is pretty much proof the dev knew it was being forked waaaaaay before the public knew !
there for giving him the chance to buy up massive cheap DEAD coins for massive re-launch of sorts.
Did he ? i don't know but since it's highly likely it's a VERY fair assumption.. the dev has a LOT of the coins..
so did he RE-launch it first then go pay a LOT for them ? get it ? ahhahha
try using your common sense guys LOL
