I have to say that for a reasonably new trader like myself, it doesn't inspire great trust in the crypto idea to see this. The two things: Labcoins behavior towards stockholders, flow of information etc - combined with this, the closure of BTCT.co in such a sudden fashion, completely crazy stock prices as a result. Combined with YOU lot - the community, all the FUDstering and manipulating. This kindergarten mentality needs to go away if you want crypto to become something more than a plaything.
There is a positive trend in how crypto is viewed in media now. More and more PR, countries are deciding on laws/taxing etc. This is good. Stuff like this thread and this community though, isn't. Grow up, people. I have had to put at least 12 people on ignore from this thread alone. And I still have a hard time figuring out what real info is, since the few contributors that seem to talk sense also engage in childish verbal pissing contests - including the PR man for Labcoin.
I wish the childishness would be gone from this community. I am fine with high volatility in the market, but the stuff that goes on here is just too much. Please, people, manner up.
I understand what you're saying, but the 'real' markets have communities that are just as bad or worse.
Yahoo stock forums back in the day...man, this is like church in comparison.
