Topic: Operation Shitcoin Cleanout and Clean Up Has Begun- Join the Revolution- Re-open - page 83. (Read 176874 times)

nxt is going to provide so many options that copy and paste alt coins won't be able to compete.  a lot of people on here don't want to here that.  its true

To increase the value of their btc/ltc holding.

The only hope for small miners to ever gain anything from their mining is to mine new and non-established coins. Why would they want to get rid of small coins so they can start competing with gigahash farmers mining litecoin?

wow the op seems like a angry kid who got locked in his room for too long or something after observing his behaviour in other threads. Many scam coins out there and yes you have listed some but going about it all the wrong way sorry. Just because a coin is a coingen coin or copy or whatever doesn't make it a scam, rather devs who deliberately lie about their coins, make huge pumps for max profits and dump the coin never to return leaving people with massive bags and robbing them of all their bitcoins now that is a scam. Huge premines, huge IPOs with the only intention of making max dev profits while flat lining everyone else now that is a scam...

sorry this thread and others like it should be closed does nothing for the community at all it's only going to stir up hate and contention


 


 

My guess is that there is a lot of small miners willing to give up a few days of mining to join a pool looking to destroy coins.

The beauty with this project is that you only have to take out a few coins, the rest will crumble in fear. No one will hold coins that might become useless overnight. When the fear sets in coins will be dumped, buy orders will vanish, prices will crash and hashpower move to the established coins leaving the shitcoins weak and dieing.

it won't hit 5.

A month ago I was on almost every lunch hoping maybe this coin will be it. But lately I haven't bothered with them anymore at all. The constant flood is just too tiring for someone who doesn't do this for living.   And I guess I'm not the only one.

shit coins are dead already ...... look at the ann section moving very slowly now.

New releases - nobody bothers with them much, they are way less of an event than 2 weeks ago

This wave is almost over. When btc hits 5000 dollars there will be another wave.

Maybe because destroying people's property would get them into trouble.

why is it that when a scamcoin launches it takes pool operators 2 secs to set up pools to support the scamcoins, but we can't put an attack pool together after 27 pages of talking?
 

The problem, ultimately, with crypto currency is that is controlled by a bunch of immature people.

lol

This thread is ridiculous. This is the kind of shit that drives people away from bitcoin. You guys aren't doing anything to help bitcoin, you're acting like like junior high kids who don't quite understand how to navigate society yet and are trying to form social cliques so you can look "cool".

Battlecoin is SHA-256.

funnily enough thats half of battlecoins plans I think 

best thread in months! following you on twitter. this is going to be my fav topics in the next weeks!

catcoin fork this weekend.

black coin will help operation shitcoin cleanup! our multipool already hard forked 2 coins

+1 to what Spoetnik said.

Lots of knee jerk reactions to what in essence we are talking about is cleaning up the scams.

Honestly?  

I think instead of arguing about figuring out which ones are scams, it would be a better plan to make a list with a fixed number of places -- say, 20 -- and put coins onto it if and only if they apparently AREN'T scams, and also show some outstanding combination of development, innovation and/or community support/activity, and no signs of known security problems.

Admit a new alt to the list only when one of the ones currently on the list is delisted due to getting hacked committing a scam, or being abandoned by its development team.

And then set out to burn every nonlisted altcoin to the ground, preferably so fast their promoters never even get a chance to pump let alone dump.

Litecoin makes the list even with no innovative feature except Scrypt mining, partly because it *introduced* scrypt mining and partly because the community (and market cap) is huge and active, it has a dev team that's responsive, etc.

Dogecoin makes the list, even though the coin itself shows no innovation AT ALL.  The "work" in Doge is by the community, not the dev.  It has scads of tipbots, wallets, blockchain explorer, good website,  active reasonably-moderated independent forums, a longstanding active reddit, good support, etc. and those things represent real work that a real community has done. Also, it happens to have the third-largest market cap after Litecoin's second.  But the market cap is still so small as to be nearly irrelevant by comparison to the combined market cap of cryptocurrencies.  It's a drop in the bucket compared to Litecoin, and Litecoin is a drop in the bucket compared to Bitcoin.  There is no reason to even consider market cap as a criterion for any coins smaller than Doge.

Darkcoin makes the list.  Darksend is an interesting new innovation, the dev is responsible and active, he's been fixing security problems instead of denying their existence and getting huffy at the people who pointed them out.  He hasn't promised a damn thing he hasn't delivered on, and the community is both active and supportive and, like the Doge community has developed some additional tools.  

Myriadcoin makes the list.  Their multi-algorithm mining appears to be a good idea, possibly a defense against burst mining and other scummy chain raping tactics.  Of course, also a possible security problem but if so the method of exploiting it hasn't been discovered yet and at least somebody's making an effort to solve a real problem.

Namecoin definitely makes the list; using a blockchain to create a lasting public record of domain registrations is a good idea, it's useful, and it's been around long enough for a scam to have revealed itself by now.

BitMessage makes the list; using a blockchain to provide secure email (and make spamming it expensive) is brilliant.  I just wish it had enough uptake to be more useful.

I can't decide about Peercoin.  Its proof-of-stake mining is an interesting idea for innovation and it has active support/community.  It has good support and has been around long enough for people to be pretty sure it isn't a deliberate scam.  The problem is that I'm not entirely convinced that their proof-of-stake implementation isn't vulnerable to an attacker using stake to support both sides of a fork.  If an exploit can be demonstrated, then they need to fix it or stop existing immediately.  If not, they make the list.


So, off the top of my head, I count seven.  Thirteen more places available on the list, who gets 'em?  

Of course there was no need to wait to start on AUR... We'll see what BCX comes up with on his fork of the attack while someone keeps the main chain very very slow to give him time to work.  

hey newbie the guy who is talking below you has taken coins down i watched it unfold before my own eyes so scuttle off and stfu
and that goes for the rest of you who said the same exact thing..

i am a noob compared to many of the guys here talking that started this before i showed up.. i only started mining and trading in July 2013
but i sure spent a lot of time talking on chat and on this forum etc since with many of the usual guys. so i have done *some homework or gotten to know some people.
the fact some of you lippy shits don't even know who the hell BCX is proves YOU are the one who should the hell up because you are making a complete fool of yourselves.

i don't think any of us are a perfect angels and i don't care about what happened in the past either with various people. i am looking forward.
i am concerned for the fate of Crypto as a whole because the world wide altcoin scene is connected to Bitcoin.
i have thought for a long time that people all over are simply looking short time and not the demise of this scene.
and by demise i mean and said long ago that a lot of people will simply walk away ..disgusted.
and i am pretty sure that is why Bitcoin went to $1200 and dropped off.. they came they seen and they left.
Why did they leave ? Doge coin tards are not helping people stay and we don't need to focus our efforts on attracting losers that get involved with crap like that coin.
I will say it again.. These scamcoins that function so similar to a ponzi scheme make Bitcoin and all of crypto look bad and the repercussions are far reaching.
The bad behavior that has grown out of control i am confident will lead to tough regulation for example and you guys can say so what but if your caught
when a bank closes your account on you and it's YOUR money that is seized your tune will change and YES that has happened endlessly last couple years,
as i have seen in the news.. banks around the world have seized account funds from other exchanges to bitcoin related businesses to the common trader.
And i myself went through 2 straight months of daily bs with Payapl when they seized a few grand from me and i had to get a lawyer to fight to get my money back.
and even when they said it was done and i got my account + money back they stole almost half of it and i had to spend even more time proving they took it.
I can't put into words how stressful it was having my 5k stolen from them and spending sooo much effort to get it back (which i did in full eventually)
And this story is a lazer beam direct link to the reputation of Bitcoin !
Paypal accused me of running a financial service business and said i broke their TOS because i sent $2500 usd from BTC-E two times to Paypal.. which is nonsense of course.
And since i have been told i lied and made all that up on BTC-E chat and else where.. people don't even believe me and guys brag about selling on ebay etc
and i have told them its owned by the same people as Paypal and you too can have you cash seized any minute.. and i am of course told i am full of shit.
It was funny when i dealt with Paypal i reminded them that people are selling coins on ebay and that places like Virwox have been selling Lindens and Bitcoins for ages and they don't bother any of those guys..Paypal also didn't comment on that either in response.. they are hypocrits that pick and choose who they will screw over and my email i got about breaking the TOS was posted right here at this forum last March by some other guy who went through the same exact crap (i found on Google) i found my email here word for word basically.
problems are brewing.. with Paypal banks etc etc all over more and more.

You scam coin cloners are ruining a good thing and are blind to the problems your causing right now and that will come soon enough.
and NO i will NOT turn a blind to the bad behavior and let it slide.. you people need to be stopped. We are in an unregulated market so no one else is going to do it.
so hell ya i will make my own badge and go after all the coin spammers i want.. don't like it ? then don't invest in scamcoins .

Sorry it's another long one but i am passionate about ALL of us even having an Altcoin scene in the future and i am deeply concerned it won't even exist down the road.
And i want to see it grow and get bigger by attracting professional and mature players not by attracting Much Yes Very Tard'lets for Such (short term / damaging) Profits.
Here me Cryptsy ? pool operators ? douche bags that flash-mine and trade coins that are clearly a ponzi of sorts.. you guys know better but play dumb
and you will hide when shit hits the fan.. you will be silent when problems pop up so no i will not sit idle and watch as irresponsible scumbags ruin things for ALL of us.
