we'll be getting to that million $ coin within the next decade for sure.

I get it, you don't like ETH. I don't like it either.
Sure, I do not like Eth, but largely in my earlier posts, I was badgering you about ETH and/or other shitcoins not being relevant to this thread, and your failure/refusal to bash them when you are talking about them makes matters worse in terms of your seeming to support them.,. which also seems to be quite irrelevant to this thread, even if it is something that you do to get more bitcoin or dollars.. but whatever... I already made my points in my earlier posts.. but you seem to continue to want to post about shitcoins in this thread.
I am starting to feel dirty by talking about these pieces of shit so much in this thread.. sorry guys, but jesus fucking christ, why are supposed bitcoiners wanting to ongoingly present shitcoins in this thread and engaging in ongoing slippery-slope posting behaviors by suggesting that they are "legit" or that they have some kind of positive attributions (or contributions) in any way? .. fuck that.
You can stop talking about them, or stop reading them, or maybe even "ignoring" them, (but I would not do that personally), if you really don't like shitcoins.
Yes, I could.. but I am not going to.
There are many things in life that cause me feel to feel dirty, uncomfortable or unpleasant from time to time, but I exercise my discretion regarding how to approach such matters when or if they come up.
I am glad to be alive and to be able to make such decisions.
I am merely talking about them from the perspective of an escrow who was asked to assist in the ICO of such coins, and I have done a fair share of them.
Since when was this thread about escrow or the dilemmas that might come from being involved in escrow decisions?
Hundreds of people send me BTC, the coin gets launched, I help distribute the premined allocation according to the contributions, all done with spreadsheets and math or sometimes semi-automated, and that's how "we" (the escrows and the rest of the community) defined "legit" back then.
Well, I am glad that all worked out for you.
There were coins that were complete vaporware, or never launched but collected BTC.. Obviously those are not "legit".
So maybe we differ in definition of what "legit" is or was, and I completely understand your frustration about the whole thing. If it's not bitcoin, it is most likely not "legit", and I'm fine with that.
Seems like we might have differing ways of presenting ideas of legit, which seems to have motivated me to respond to your earlier framing of such "legit" categorizations.
Your failing to acknowledge the existing of shitcoins (and you know they are out there, even if you believe their true value is zero) is getting you all worked up having a discussion about them.
I doubt that it is getting me worked up, even if you would like to project such emotions upon me.
I will admit that recently, I had some conversations in real life that devolved in the other person (actually no coiners purportedly contemplating the potential of becoming coiners) who seemed to not know too much about bitcoin but bringing up other cryptos - and doge coin was surely mentioned in prominent kinds of ways.. so that was a bit irritating, and I doubt that I am failing to "acknowledge the existence" of such shitcoins, even though it seems quite problematic to be continuously trying to derail this thread in such direction, even while you are continuing to "see nothing wrong with that" blah blah blah.
I do know the value of bitcoin,
Your actions and your posts frequently seem to undermine such supposed knowledge of such.
but you think I do not because I mention the supposed value of other shitcoins or altcoins.
Sure.. it could just be that you are either stubborn or have an inability to try to stay topical in this thread.
It is not me giving them value either, but the market.
And......? So what? You seem to be misreading me if you believe that I conclude that shitcoins do not have any value, even if I conclude that bring them up in this thread is NOT topical and it tends to cost way more than any benefit that it brings, including the fact that you are more than free to talk about all the shitcoins that you love and their supposed value in some other thread in the forum. Are there forum threads for that? and even if you don't use the forum, there are likely other social media locations too, such as twitter and reddit and likely other places to talk about such irrelevant
(to this thread) nonsense.
Sometimes it seems like we might be thinking like the bankers, not giving "intrinsic value" to bitcoin, because that's how they think, when talking about shitcoins.
Oh gawd!!!
first of all you presume that I don't believe that shitcoins have value and then you make some other kind of nonsense assertion attempting to make an analogy.. Did I wake up in a parallel universe? help... help.
I simply keep an open mind,
Nobody is stopping you from "keeping an open mind" - just go do it somewhere else.
without assigning value to them from me. You seem to insist that keeping an open mind about shitcoins is a failure.
Yes.. its a failure to either stay on topic or to respect the wishes of consensual matters of mostly staying away from shitcoins in this thread..except to either bash them or to make some bitcoin related observation that mostly would not be construed as pumping such baloney or ideas about supposed value that they might have (in theory).
And for that, I'll probably accept it. As failure eventually leads to success somehow, and knowing how to get up when you fall is better than not falling at all, because we learn.
Of course, this should be a place that allows for learning, but get the fuck out of here with wanting to bring up irrelevant and bullshit shitcoins.. .. why do I feel as if I might be repeating my lil selfie?
It's nice to think we don't have to fall tho, but that rarely happens.
Yes, lots of us make mistakes in life..and sometimes we learn and other times it takes longer to learn... and surely sometimes we don't learn too, so there are a lot of variations of what might happen whether it is falling or making some other kinds of mistakes.. and hopefully such discussions are mostly involving bitcoin, even while other topics are surely tolerated and accepted in this thread as long as you are not devolving into shitcoin pumping or some other kind of shill pumping posts... which largely tend to be irritating rather than anything that members might want to discuss in this here thread.. .seems to me.
