in reality that is what did NOT happen though.. the markets died off big time and most people scattered and left !
look around you & see what happened..
I see many shitcoins down 99-100% and bitcoin down 75% from its very brief (obviously overextended) peak but up over the period of a year, and up a LOT over two years.
I see roughly the same number of alts at non-trivial valuations as there were six months ago, and only a few more than last year.
I see fewer shitcoin launches even getting out of the gate, because the market has gotten tougher and more discriminating.
So yes it is doing exactly what I suggest.
I completely agree with this analysis. Generally, it seems as if the marketplace/community for cryptocoins in general has started to mature into realism a bit.
You guys are ignoring the band-aid and clapping because the bleeding stopped !
do you have any clue how hard i had to work for a year straight to get that band-aid on ?
it's insulting to say it doesn't even exist
you guys are flat out WRONG !
and i will be proven correct when prices eventually starting getting way higher and the cloning ramps up to a fever pitch once again.
those discriminating guys you talk about will flip flop back to supporting shitcoins for cash and prizes in a heart beat !
sorry but guys like you two are utterly clueless and you think the effects of what has transpired was magic or something.
guys got discriminating because they had to !
buying into daily pump and dump coins was not making them money anymore..
it's not because they seen the error of their ways LOL
it's because they fucked up the scene bad and are drowning in a sea of their own bullshit THEY CREATED !
and more than likely you two talking here have been balls deep in it all too.. i'd bet my left nut on it LOL
edit:
what TYPE of person around here would argue that cloning coins (
diluting the market) would not kill the scene over all ?
coin cloners.. that is who LOL
STOP trying to justify your cancerous bad behavior guys !
Cloners run their mouth here making stupid excuses and the guys who jump around investing in P&D's usually do so quietly.
they may advertise their shitcoin but they don't usually philosophically debate the merits of shitcoin cloning.
and we have a fucked up situation because pretty much
all of us took part in killing this shit (some way worse than others)
What it is, is an accumulation of every guy in crypto doing a
little bad and offering a
little support to some shit coin, usually *
quietlyand all combined it amounts to all of us coming together to destroy the altcoin scene and i called it mid last year !
I seen it coming miles away !
Each person says oh well i only did a little and many said i never advertised them.. but support is support !
Those clone coins posted so much at the height of cloning could not have gotten off the ground like Doge coin for example..
had guys not been supporting them !
edit2:
And worst of all is we have taken bitcoin out back and shot it !
you know that coin we use to cash out Alt's to BTC to Fiat to buy lambo's with ?
See the foot getting shot ?
Kind of dumb you want BTC but you make it worth less by shit coin cloning or supporting them guys LOL
