Topic: It's going to be cute when bitcoin shatters and gets destroyed - page 4. (Read 9249 times)

You don't need to invest any money, have an old desktop computer that you use? Laptop? Just run the client and make some coin. End of the day if it turns out it's a horrendous scam/fail, didn't lose much besides some electricity.

So your new altcoin is going to be centralised then?

Right. I saw that on the forums, people seem to trust the word of this developer without any external confirmation... RealSolid and solidcoin come to mind.

Sure, those sound interesting. It's just that it's harder to actually implement them than it is to claim to have implemented them. With this sort of info I would personally _never_ invest money or or time on something like this but I wish you guys all the best.

Because Fanboys have shatterable egos, ask all the Apple fanboys. They get massive butthurt when you speak against their "precious" and as a typical blind fanboy instead of coming up with proper arguments, they go for attacks on the individual, as doing so makes the words written less true in their brains infected with butthurt lol.

Please feel free to fill-out the butthurt form and submit:

 

I am okay with skepticism. I was trying to explain why you all felt it necessary to taunt him about your superior profits. Yeah his technical arguments were flawed and he is novice, but he is just expressing an opinion. You can argue facts without the whipping out the dick measuring tape.

That is why I taunted you so you would know how unproductive, mindless, and childish that tit-for-tat is.

What is amazing (well not) is how bitCONers will put themselves in prison just because the better altcoin hasn't arrived yet.

But exponential ponzi gains driving dopamine spikes atrophies the brain, so it is easy to understand their lack of research and self-discipline.

In any case, we will all be happier (in a long-term stable way) and better off once that altcoin comes. And it won't be very long from now, probably before Xmas.

By having general trust in a real person, not Satoshi an anonymous enigma. A year or so later when it's open source you can go and read the code. I'm not excited about vague or overly technical infomration, what I'm excited about is instant transaction, messaging, exchange, no expensive hardware, no 51% attack, and all the other massive features.

So, It's closed source. The white paper was already "coming soon" in June. Explanations of how e.g. distribution or verifier trust works on the forum are both complex and hand-wavy at the same time. Some examples of that:

Now, I'm sure you can find similarly vague posts about bitcoin on this forum. The difference is that intelligent people did not get enthusiastic about Bitcoin because of those messages, but because of A) Satoshis easy to understand yet complete whitepaper and possibly B) by looking at the source code.

So I'm curious, how exactly did you decide emunie is the real deal?

If it lives up to all hits hype, then great, something that offers lighting fast transactions, is completely secure and uses far less power in the long term would be wonderful. But it has a looong long way to go judging by its forum, some rather critical security issues to overcome too:

http://forum.emunie.com/index.php/topic/344-wallet-manipulation/

Have to love the mods on this forum, they allow rampant scams yet they move this thread which is a general discussion about bitcoin failing because people started to talk about alt coims lol.

Also, another reason why emunie or other alt coins will destroy bitcoin is they dont require thousands of dollars for asics and cpus. eMunie's most important hardware requirement is fast hard drives. You can basically run a system that will last you a few years with your old desktop on top of that you're only wasting like 70watts at the wall.

Really? because the impression I got in this thread was some guy writing in a childish attacking way going on about how useless Bitcoins are and there's this wonder replacement currency thats going to destroy it, whilst making lots of additional posts insulting people, ie the reverse of what you just wrote.

Maybe Johny is right, maybe eMunie or some variant will take over as the primary cryptocurrency of the world!, but right now that is pure speculation, and if he was mature enough he'd realise that and not post in such a way as to embarrass himself coming across like a 12 year old, in that respect he does himself no favours.  Seems mature discussions are a rarity on this board.

As of right now this is what we know, Bitcoin is proven, its already widely used around the world way more than any other crypto currency, its not without its flaws (transaction times aren't always the most stable), but we know it works and is pretty damn solid.
eMunie, well its still in the alpha stage imho, its very unproven and far to early stages to really form an opinion on.

Only time will tell if Bitcoin rules surpeme, it has the edge in acceptance and the mainstream media spreading the word about.  VHS beat Betamax after all and VHS was the inferior product.  Anybody right now who claims to know absolutely for sure if Bitcoin will win, fail, or maintain its own niche market is doing nothing more than guessing, because no-one knows, its still far too early to say.

Way I look at it, even if something like eMunie turned out to be rock solid and accepted as the new standard, people will still use Bitcoins and hold value in them for private person to person transactions around the world for very low fees. I don't see it as a threat, and welcome advances, as well as any advances to the Bitcoin code to further improve that too.

I just wanted to quote this from the first page. I stopped reading from there because this above perfectly explains why cryptocurrency (most probably bitcoin) will take over the world.

hes an uber programmer with gazillion hits in mozilla netscape time, and he had to cash out at 150$...business must be slow

Anony Anony Anony , why all this belligerence ? 

Im not bagging I was asking did he get out at 150 $ and is he angry about that ? Thats all ?

If you have a design id love to see it , I know you are a guy with some talent .

* thanks for the correct spelling

: D

Guys , I kinda feel like you are ganging up on me here ?

I know this game isnt over , I was just asking a question , are we not all working towards the same general end point ?

Lets be more friendly towards me.

Sorry to burst your ego, but your not the first one to make that claim.
Hint; think Solidcoin. 

yup, much better to stay away from stuff like that. like i said, btc is one of a kind. end of story.

eMunie seems great and much better than bitcoin but I personally won't invest in a coin where nobody can see the source code and know if decentralization, security and privacy are respected. It's a high-risk for investors if security vulnerabilities are found later. Anyway I hope the dev will change his mind.

You missed the video of yourself.

You think the ship has sailed because you are not a programmer of 30 years with million user hits as I have. I had more downloads in 2 years than BitCON has in 4 years. And that was 13 years ago when the internet was 10X smaller.

I am going to destroy BitCON (there is no light, it is fatally doomed as it lacks distribution) and you will buy from me.

Distribution is the key.

I am enjoying taunting you (and any other clueless neophyte billionaire such as Roger Mellon if he thinks his money can trump my algorithm).

nah, its the non-bitcoiners that are mad as hell they missed the boat, and now trying to reinvent the light bulb. guess what, get out there and find a job, as that ship has sailed

I finally figured out why BitCONers get so defensive about an altcoin becoming successful.

Ignorant gloating combined with fear and jealously! They want their place in the hierarchy of the ponzi scheme is static, i.e. who ever bought after them is lower than them on the totem pole.

This is just male dick size all over again.

They aren't really serious about changing the world. Ponzi crash be damned, NWO be damned, as long as their dick is longer than your dick.

They sugar coat their dick-envy with "lying to themselves" proclamations about how they will cure cancer with their gains, etc..

Not very evolved from gorillas yet are we.

There is a really funny real-life video I captured of these BitCONers:
