Wasn't SuperNet like $5 originally or something?

I'm riding it down to zero!   Cheesy When it's like 10 cents I will be like: "it will go back up at any moment.. it has to.." like the Aurora and Mazacoin bagholders.

Good that we finally have FinCEN trying to regulate altcoins. It will be harder for these kind of people to make any new shitcoins.

Wow...when I read that, my "writer's bug" went into overdrive. I know the full-bore libertarians and ancaps won't like the following, but the proliferation and durability of scamcoins do show how unready we are for economic liberty. (Confession: I'm very much part of the "we.") We came in here with habits resulting from us being sheltered by the protective and controlling Regulatory State, and those habits have been a lot harder to break than rationalists would have us believe. We came in here, protected in normal life by the Regulatory State, and we thought we were shrewd...only to find that we were sheltered. Again, I'm very much part of the "we."

Here's a word-to-the-wise glimpse of the kind of smarts needed to thrive in a completely unregulated economy, courtesy of the early Benjamin Graham from the tail-end of the laissez-faire days. When he started off teaching security analysis he said flatly that if you have your eyes on a capital gain - any amount of capital gain - you are a speculator. You're not an investor until you keep your eye on income and the avoidance of capital losses (i.e., safety.) That's a glimpse of the kind of habitual hard-headedness needed to make your way in laissez-faire. By the normal standard of those days, we are living in an Age of Fools - or an Age of Recklessness.

Here's another quick glimpse: back in the laissez-faire days, lotteries - and even gambling - were considered immoral by mainstream opinion. Period. Back in those days, "quick buck artists" were considered shady, or at the very minimum contemptible because they set a bad example.

It's been one heckuva field test we've been living through: an all-out field test of the anarcho-capitalist ideal. Sadly, one of the results of this here field test is that we're far more creatures of habit - Regulatory-State-inculcated habit - that we realized. (Once again, I'm very much part of the "we.") The only people who've emerged unscathed are those who are suspicious by nature: the ones who take red flags far more seriously than most of us.

tl;dr: In this day and age, it's too early to implement the ancap ideal. We have a lot of habits - lost except to specialized histories and historical snippets here and there - to build up before we're ready for laissez-faire. And the irony of it is, Bitcoin's sudden success actually cut us off from the amount of time we need to discover and cultivate those habits of hard-headedness.  

Quote from: The Kinks
I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in grey
Got no privacy got no liberty
'cause the twentieth century people
Took it all away from me....

You are spot on. Most of us came here because of the ideals be it libertarian or anarchist or whatever. But the very thing we have been try to escape from - we created it here. And we created a monster. It just goes to show what is going on in the world at large now, a reflection if you will.

That said, I do believe that over time the true market forces will weed out the scams and shitcoins and one day, be it in 3 year , 5 or 20 years - the crypto world will look much different and will have legitimacy, you are right now we lack the legitimacy and we want acceptance from the mainstream. Don't work that way

Interested.......!

@gaws....If you think that some Labatts-powered troll is griefing your beloved project, could you actually try to present some counter arguments or evidence and engage said critic in some actual debate ?
Posting big fat blank spaces doesn't really give me the feeling that you have anything useful to say. If BlockNet is the real deal, getting a FUD thread just gives you guys a chance for some free advertising, with guaranteed views.



Counter arguments to what? LOL
Get serious already

While you play this games on formus, I make money

This new "FUDDER" job is already well known...

- Yo, got a bitcointalk account?
- Yeah, why?
- Go FUD this project, I'll pay you!
- How much?
- Enough to buy you a sandwich!
- DONE!

You should all see yourselves Smiley


Dude: I've seen a few red flags on BlockNet and it's associated currencies, but I'm also very aware of how even legit currencies and projects can get FUDded. I'm gonna assume you have some f**king clue about my involvement with Nxt, so I'm kind of an expert on kicking FUD into touch........just present the truth to everyone. LOUDLY!

Posting whitespace just makes you look like you want to hide instead of fighting to show everyone the truth.


But on the other hand: was it a good sandwich? I am feeling kinda hungry.....

Oh, so you are with SuperNET Smiley))
Got it...

How is SuperNET doing? Going down much?

GTFO, you're the same type of maggot...

+ 10, mate.

Whatever it's faults, the crypto-scene is an amazing social experiment in action. Back in the 19th century we had the Gold Rushes:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_rush
And it's amazing how closely the crypto world resembles those Gold Rushes. Round about now (one year after a major gold discovery/Bitcoin rise) is the moment the cops/sherriff/Mounties are gonna ride into our boomtown and clean it up, hopefully chasing most of the bad guys out of town, but making it in the process a very much more boring and restrictive place.

I'm a slightly dedicated anarchist, and it saddens me pisses me off that so many people can't deal with the personal responsibilities that freedom from law brings.

A comment by pookieklax (who the XC guys despise and have "banned") caught my eye. I don't know why he didn't post that comment earlier when he was in the know and it could save a lot of people continuing to fall for all the scams that Metcalf is involved in.

halcyondev = https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/halcyondev-367138

atcsecure = https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/atcsecure-88818

Apparently atcsecure did a review (lmao) of the HAL coin which was using some component of the XC shitcoin. Only they are apparently the same person which one can easily find by comparing the posting style, format etc. pookie knew this but never said anything up until today and posted in the XC thread which was deleted within seconds. I am convinced that all the other shitcoins of this Blocknet shit is also same group seeing as some of them have also being "reviewed".

A detailed XC thread needs to be started which explains all the charades these guys have been playing since the launch of XC.

Surprised no one knows the story behind xc.

Hint: Not all that legit.
