wow, this forum has gone downhill! no mods nowadays or what?

You are a fucking diptwat.

Last I heard from you was that you sold all your coins in the $600s in the 2014 time frame, and you were living happily ever after because bitcoin was going to go to zero (for sure).. and you knew it and you were smarter than the rest of us... blah blah blah. You said a bunch of other dumbshit too, including that you weren't going to be coming back, except to tell us how dumb we were and to rub bitcoin in our face, yet for some strange reason bitocin is far exceeding 16x from the prices that you sold...

I can't imagine that you are actually smart about something, and I imagine you are coming back to tell us how wonderful your life is because you cashed out dollars - even though you could have been at least 16x more prosperous if you had hung onto your bitcoins. Anyhow, whatever supposed smartness that you have is merely in your imaginary fantasy thinking rather than based on reality.

TLDR: So what the fuck would you know about either bitcoin or this forum?

Go ahead point me to where I said that? I have called every bottom and top since 2012, and I have been working full time on Crypto related projects as a developer since 2014.

while you are still wasting your life arguing your nonsense on this thread...some people never change.

Oh... so you come back to tell us how smart you were including that posting on this thread is "wasting life?", and how you made a lot of money, too?

Perhaps your braggadocios presentation is part of the issue?

It’s an interesting idea. But right now all of the implementations are fatally flawed. Execution matters.

Long live the King

Find me a MW coin without dev penalty, that is decentralized and hasn’t fucked up the economics, and you will have my attention

Are people still fucking drooling over Mumble Wimble grin shit? I never understood why everyone had such a boner over it, no hardware wallet support, no gui wallet, pain to fucking actually use the damn thing.

"use" and "altcoin" do not go together. Cheesy

1. It has a massive target in the form of a centralized dev team - same as Ethereum. This is a very easy target for governments to crack.

2. Network effect is close to zero

3. The dev penalty is widely known and contrary to cypherpunk principles. Hence no buyers of last resort. It can easily run to zero and stay there.

4. ASIC resilience is a scam.

It has one thing going for it, they capped supply unlike Grin. Grin team fucked up the economics, same mistake as Monero.

1- I agree, development was designed to be centralized for the first year to allow for quicker progress (compare it to Grin or Monero for example), Ethereum and Zcash have the same model but Beam will change that by handing it to a foundation (same like the one Bitcoin had early days), but honestly if you think about it even the Bitcoin core write access is mostly held by Blockstream employees so...
2- Network effect works as long as the tech evolves, IBM had the network effect at some point as well, not denying Bitcoin's Network effect but I don't think this is a zero-sum game, don't forget that Beam was the first MW implementation, and it offers the best privacy/scaling right now.
3- Dev tax is priced in, I see the dev tax the same way I see the coinbase reward miners collect, we don't expect miners to throw free power thus we shouldn't expect devs to work for free, and you are so wrong about the cypherpunk principals, free means freedom and not slavery. also, what about the 1M BTC Satoshi owns? is it fair if he would be able to spend it one day?
4- Nothing is Asic resilient and the plan is not to be ASIC resistant, but switching PoW every 6 moths ruin any plans for any ASIC R&D thus making the distribution somewhat better the first year.

Nice discussion guys but I suggest you move over to Beam discussion thread. I bet 99.9% of members here are not interested in any Beams-shmeams. Grin

1. Blockstream write access is tempered by the very high distribution of nodes. Including nodes which very deliberately run old versions. Also Core is not the only client. Afaik Beam has only one client.

2. People always underestimate first mover. Bitcoin is aggressively evolving - just look at Lightning.

3. Cypherpunk is not about corporatisation - c’mon man. And foundations are BS.

4. The dev team is running ASICS. I guarantee it.

Look MW and cut through are interesting technologies. But the market positioning and messaging is terrible. It has CEO ffs. This guy is going to go to jail to protect your darknet deals and tax evasion? Not a chance. It’s a privacy coin not a utility coin.

If thats so Then “insert Will ferrell gif.... what a loser”

He probably listen to r0ach same-ish price cash out Cheesy

I have not been active on Bitcointalk for a long time and in this part of the forum in ages, but I am surprised about the amount of bigotry that is going on (including r0ach posts, where are the mods?).

I have bought most of my Bitcoins in the single and double digits, I kept selling when the MA crossovers happened (bubbles popping) and buying back whenever everyone is calling dooms.

I also switched my focus from being all-in Bitcoin to investing in privacy-focused coins (Monero in 2015-2017 and Mimblewimble coins, mostly Beam now).

If you sold at the MA death cross off the 2017 peak you would have sold at sub $10k.

Beam is a joke, although “centralized privacy coin” does make for a good punch line

Beam

Wat?

Everything you said and you'll ever say in the future has lost its credibility the moment you mentioned beam.

Beam the shitcoin, the taxcoin you pay its devs from your mining income.

So you (d)evolved into a shitcoiner in the end after all those years, sad.
