Who cares if a botnet mines Monero? 99% of all coins have for sure been mined by botnets. Even bitcoin.
I'd say the botnet operators are smart and knows how to make money, that's why they mine it.

I don't care who mines my Monero any more than I care who mines my gold and silver.

You don't understand. Monero's trades volumes are artificial because botnet, therefore scam. The hypothesis is accepted by Cheesus and Hexah agreed. That's proof enough for me.

So Cheesus thinks coins mined by botnets are like blood diamonds mined in war zones? Oh noez, Conflict Coins!1!!

I guess we need to have a whitelist of coins which were mined by the 'right' people and certified kosher by the high priests of the temple, right Cheesus? Grin

Who needs the low friction produced by fungibility anyway? Roll Eyes

A few gems about the special features that I have heard so much about.

What's your baseline for comparison? Oh that's right - all the other cryptocurrencies that can inherit all the work and broad testing that's gone into Bitcoin over the past 5.5 years. Makes perfect sense, carry on then.

My baseline is that people want things to work when they buy them. When you take a product to market, you ensure it can do basic things. If you don't you are asking your customers to trust that you will solve the challenges faced.

You seem to think that XMR can be the biggest pile of shit but is excused all its technical deficiencies because it's a different type of crypto to the glut we already have.

That is a bullshit way of thinking, and demonstrates very low expectation, naivety or yet another attempt at deflection.

Monero is very suspicious coin. I hear developer hardcode in 5 million xmr in their own wallets. Is it true??? Huh

Really? This is pure nonsense.
If the code is open source then you can't hardcode it into it and hide it from the others.
Obviously it's not true, stop believing rumors or spreading FUD; whichever you're trying to do.

I think he was making a joke of the classic line in the FUD handbook, "I heard X...is it true???" At least it made me laugh.

Spoiler alert.

Hypothesis 3 is accepted. Monero's developers are not capable of developing the coin

No need to wait for part 3 now. /thread

LOL. Total communications failure here. I was referring to yours, and both he and I were engaging in parody. I thought it was obvious but you know how these things can go on the Internet.

Kozi is fine, not a purchased account, and worthy of trust AFAIK.

Wait a second, you're trying to say that my account was purchased? Cheesy

Man, lighten up. That's pretty obvious sarcasm in my book.

Sorry I missed this completely, the insomnia is killing me. Well he should have made it clear actually, since people (a few known trolls) might actually try using this again Monero (even though it's nonsense).

Quote from: TheKoziTwo on August 26, 2014, 06:09:03 PM

BTW selling an account with reputation is equal to scamming in my eyes. I'm not a scammer thus I will never sell my account.

There was error in communication and my perception.
I apologize. Good thinking there!

Obviously a purchased Hero account right there.
So much scam.

Yeah it seemed suspicious to me as well due to the way that he posted. I just didn't want to point it out before checking his whole account, for which I do not have time (right now).
You might as well remove the trust that you put on him in this case.
Someone is trying to manipulate everything, luckily it's not working (for now).
