If blockchains are decentralized databases
And Monero has the most advanced database
Then monero is the most advanced blockchain.

Is no one paying attention? Does anyone else notice that only monero is actively improving and developing its database machinery? THIS WHOLE TECHNOLOGY CENTERS ON A DATABASE!
I think everyone a bit worn out from the constant dumpage. Where the fuck do all those coins come from! It's tough to keep up the spirits when you see the market getting so manipulated and your holding for altruistic reasons.
I hear ya. I guess botnet miners, I don't know... It is weird. Why dump at so cheap, unless panic?
A legitimate altcoin with truly disruptive tech like Monero is a threat to all the shitcoins with bad crypto and snake oil marketing.
Thus, we are all of their common enemy. Plus, we goad them into attacking, to better our distribution and antifragility.
