It's obvious that any of these shitcoins will succed in the real life, but this don't mean that are completely useless!!
Most people don't like to say so, BUT THEY LOVE SPECULATION, like they love betting or playing in casinos. It's just low-human nature. Right now, we're seeing a huge increase in volume of altcoins.
Sure most volume is from insiders, but I'm also sure that new SPECULATIVE money is being attracted to the scene. So even if MAID, ETH or all those shits are obvious scams, I have the feeling the party hasn't ended yet...
I am not trying to control.
I intended to stop posting and still do intend to.
I just decided I wanted a poll that asked the question the right way and allowed everyone to vote for as many coins as they wish so we can get a more accurate reflection of the sentiment on the forum. I am pleasantly surprised to see that the forum actually does reasonably understand that most of the altcoins are scams (although they needed some help from me to see that for example Factom is hyping a nonsense design).
So this further confirms to me that I need to leave this forum because it is very unprofessional and is for people who have addiction issues.
I want to get back to working with professionals in the industry. I let myself slide away from that over the past decade. I want to create software for users, not for addicted people or people who want to steal from others by trying to be the winner in the greater fool theory of investing that causes most to be losers. I am interested in speculators who invest to better the world.
So this poll is a way of confirming to me that I am wasting my time here.
We end up like what we chose to work on, invest in, and be involved in.
Mix yourself with low lifes, and you will end up a low life also. I speak from first-hand experience of seeing my life disintegrate based on a choice who to associate with in my 30s.
