stuff
I hear what you are saying....
I edited my above post because I had not realized that in my first response, I had not responded to your whole post.
Edited: Whoops... I had to add some further response. Initially I posted a response only one or two paragraphs, then I noticed that I had not responded to the whole empowering post. Whoops.
...however
If I want to mention ETH here I will, if I want to mention a broader crypto topic I will... as you mentioned, this board DOES indeed devolve into a massive selection of topics, and whilst you think that "throttling "shitcoin" talk" is this boards main strength... I in turn think it is the anti censorship aspect of the thread.
Of course, you have a right to do what you like, and this thread happens to be pretty liberal about accepting off-topic discussions. You are likely going to get quite a bit of hostility if that is your intention to bring up shitcoins including ethereum or whatever other shitcoin you want to pump, whether for features or just for shits and giggles.
Everyone has access to the "ignore" function, it is super easy to use.
Yes.,. and we have a right to tell you to fuck off, and the thread moderator has a right to delete your posts if he believes you to be purposefully derailing the thread when you can post your intended bullshit somewhere else.
Personally I am not married to any of these damn craptocurrencies,
Good for you.
I kind of like bitcoin myself. I find bitcoin to be a paradigm shifting invention that is likely to change the world in a lot of ways including that we are in the midst of the largest wealth transfer ever experienced by mankind and you can recognize that or you can get distracted into shitcoins.. which are not any kinds of leaders in anything except for hanging on the coat-tails of bitcoin and trying to present their lil selfies as if they were some kind of a comparable and/or complementary asset.
Don't get me wrong, I believe that shitcoins are inevitable just like satoshi had recognized that there were going to be a lot of imitators - but the mere fact that shitcoins are inevitable and they are temporarily attracting value into them, does not mean that we should allow this thread to get distracted with such ongoing nonsense lack of focus in our discussion of bitcoin related matters.
but I find it , hilarious tbh that some people are so strongly allergic to "shitcoins"
You are projecting.
We (Royal perhaps?) are not allergic to shitcoins in these here parts merely because we do not want this topic to devolve into such distractions.
that , you make a post , say about a guy who ended up in prison after they travelled to NK, and "helped NK evade sanctions" and somehow, because he has been involved with Ethereum, that suddenly , one feels the need to spazz out and start hyperventilating and barking about "shitcoins/shitcoiner" .... I mean it is hardly like the topic I posted was about shitcoins, and it was hardly a shill for Ethereum.
Of course, that post and your link could be read either way, and I doubt that suchmoon's response was off-topic to bring up the shitcoin angle, even if that might not have been your original intention.
Btw, Ethereum defo very much exists,
Fuck ethereum and that scam smoke and mirrors nonsense...
take that propaganda and pumpening to some other thread... whether in this forum or somewhere else.
Why do we need to hear in this thread about the various ways that ethereum is being used (and having utility and blah blah blah other points you would like to make about that)?
and, regardless of ones maximalism within their own portfolio, which is entirely their choice... but braying at the moon "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE" is
No one said that.. .you are making shit up. Of course, as I already mentioned, there is a difference between staying on topic for the thread and whether there might be some justifications to diversify or involve yourself in such a shitcoin like ethereum or any of the various other shitcoins/projects associated with it.
This does not happen to be "all the ways that you can make ur lil selfie rich" thread. Hadn't you noticed? If you want that thread, then go make your own thread, because shitcoins are neither on topic here, and they are a distraction, and likely to cause devolution if permitted (even in small ways) in these here parts... so did I say "fuck off " with that nonsense, yet?
, kinda inane and does not in reality, match reality in any way shape or form.
Who cares about reality? This is not the "everything that happens to be real" thread. Have you heard of bitcoin? Do you know how to focus ur lil selfie? Do you happen to recognize and appreciate that value comes from trying to focus rather than not?
Also, is it worth making the point that many of these craptocurrencies are chalk and cheese, they are not even attempting to be the same thing, not even close.
It is also worth making the point that there are all kinds of threads in which you can compare and contrast the 16,000 shitcoins that happen to exist and some might be imitating bitcoin and others might be their own unique little snowflakes. Good for them... now fuck off and compare and contrast them in some other place. Could you?
Also, there are shitcoins, no doubt, total pieces of shyte, but, then there are other blockchain projects that are kinda cool, and making headways in their own right, and plenty of "midcaps" again some , maybe even MOST, are crap but some are not.
Yeah.. that's a great proposal empowering. Come to this thread, and propose that we should become the thread that compares and contrast which shitcoins happen to be less shitty...
Great..
No one else had ever thought about that. You are bringing so much value to these parts... .
NOT.
I do not make the argument that this thread should become a altcoin discussion thread , far from it,
Actions speak louder than words.. did you read what you just posted? Looks like you want to assert that some shitcoins are less shitty than others and to discuss that in this thread, no?
... but come on guys, it isn't ever going to, and making a loose reference to a craptocurrency other than Bitcoin, is hardly a reason to break out into hives and start barking shitcoin and labelling people who happen to mention one a "shitcoiner tourist" and the like...
Seems like a good reason to me.
Nip it in the bud.
When in doubt, bash shitcoins and possible shitcoiners seems like a good approach to this thread.
Of course, there are some members who ONLY bash shitcoins/shitcoiners, and that could be annoying too because it ends up causing us to have to think about shitcoins/shitcoiners way more than many of us would like to.. better would be if they are not even mentioned, so we do not have to think about that irrelevant nonsense and distracting crap.
My biggest bug about it, in honesty, is it very much reminds me of the "never coiner" dynamic... its very similar in terms of closemindedness.
Are you just making shit up? What the fuck are you talking about empowering? If you mostly stick to posting about bitcoin and mentioning shitcoins once in a while, no one is going to say anything about your various divergences from the topic, but if you are trying to suggest that shitcoins are people too, then you are just asking for trouble.
Shitcoins are not necessary to discuss here, but they are not completely off limits either, especially if you are somehow making a post or discussion that is about bitcoin or relates to bitcoin issues, and the guy getting arrested for his Korean presentation surely has tendencies to relate to bitcoin, even though he had happened to have been a distracted ethereum dweeb.
Don't make yourself a distracted ethereum dweeb.. try to focus.. especially in this thread.. if you are able to. If you can't then we (royal and perhaps others) are going to have to slap you around every time we see you until possible some sense is slapped into your avatar.
hahahahaha
some members here
(not going to mention any names) are easily slap-triggered..
#justsaying
Its the same sort of rhetoric coming from a bitcoin maximalist as ones from a never coiner, literally the same mechanism at play.
Sounds like you are making shit up.
Members here have all kinds of variations of opinions even if they might largely agree to keep shitcoin talk to a minimum in this thread, and surely we do not even all agree on that.. so stop trying to make it sound as if everyone here agrees and we are just spouting out "acceptable" bitcoin talking points... because there is no such thing, and there is plenty to talk about, even if we try to minimize the shitcoin discussions, so it is not like we are running out of topics, even if we may well be attempting to minimize shitcoin devolutions.
For what it is worth.... I know very very very few "shitcoiners" that are not in fact "Bitcoiners" 1st, and "shitcoiners" 2nd.
Good for you. Doesn't make shitcoins or shitcoiner talk relevant or welcomed in this thread.
Annnnnnnnnnnnyways..... said my piece now, and imma not ram it down peoples throats, I am pretty sure that we can all get along, and I for one am now over the convo, I have nothing to add on the topic and so I won't
I heard that before.
Bitcoin is obviously king, obvs.
Obviously, but you still want to argue about it and you still want to argue about the idea of how much shitcoin talk is relevant here... sounds like you have your own sore points on the topic of wanting more shitcoin acceptance within bitcoinlandia.. blah blah blah.
