let's roll over and die.
I raised the point not because I wanted to give up (although sometimes you guys make me feel like I would like to leave CC yet luckily my desire to fight overpowers my feelings/perceptions about how insane this market is). But because r0ach who has been for the past months (ever since he stopped teasing us with Bitshares' DPOS) arguing that Bitcoin is the only shit,
suddenly starts pumping an altcoin (Monero). He raved about how it is superior to Zcash and he said basically it is the only altcoin that is worth considering. Fuck if Monero is the be all and end all of our attempts to improve CC, then we should roll over and die.
More power to Monero if they can surprise and actually figure out how to fix these problems and even challenge Bitcoin. But I am not holding my breath.
Monero had their years to dominate the forums. And what do we have to show for it?
Let someone else have a chance. Don't tell me Monero is only choice!
We need more experimentation. Monero has no clue on how to fix these issues. Nor how to obtain adoption. I was in their chat the other day to listen and it is all just nonsense. They have no plan whatsoever that is viable. And I wasn't planning on stating that, but since it wasn't enough to just let me make a statement about mining security being a weakness of proof-of-work altcoins, it unfortunately comes to me spilling out my other perceptions.
I have no problem with Monero, other than when people start speaking lies. Monero is one of the anonymity coins. It is a contender. Zcash is a contender. r0ach you are acting like the snake oil salesmen, such as iCEBREAKER who just say anything without any care whatsoever as to balance and accuracy. It is not true that Monero is superior to Zcash in every way, not even after RingCT is implemented, but I don't want to get into another long debate. So I won't even tell you why. I have already discussed that in the other threads many times before and I will not waste my time rehashing it. You are attacking a coin which isn't even released yet.
Note I haven't slept for 24 hours. So of course my writing is atrocious.
Let me add that I believe in meritocracy. I wish we could all stay in our official coin threads and go compete with action.
Enough words!
Please stop pumping shit!
Go work and STFU. All of us.
Compete and win on the merits of your adoption. We don't need
r0ach or any other personality leading us like flock. Run a signature campaign if you want to plaster the forum with your banner. But pleeeeassssee stop with attacking other coins such as Zcash. Go build your own fucking coin and make it a Bitcoin killer. Words against Zcash isn't accomplishment. And for as long as Monero has ongoing forks (upgrades), please don't holier than thou about how Zcash has a corporation doing the open source coding. Open source coding has often been funded by corporations.
We need action. Stop the fucking games!
None of you can understand how I, as the inventor of the "Video Microwave" in 1989, have a wholly superior knowledge of quantum mechanics and the use of the cavity magnetron for manipulating EITHER NTSC or PAL broadcast signals. It was therefore superior to the fundamentally inferior "Video Toaster" which ran on that damned Jay Miner's Amiga.
Fail. It is not even not funny. But it says something about you.
