Hi Nerds!
And so why don’t I invest in Monero?
Good question.
(in no particular order)
1) Impossibly bad name (no, it’s not cool). Esperanto sucks.
2) Bitching in other threads
3) Bitching about BCN
4) Bitching about CN
5) Basically bitching about anything non-Monero (“All hail XMR”)
6) Monero has not innovated tech. This is a big one.
7) Monero bitch about those who did (BCN). Lacks class.
No GUI wallet. kudos BCN for theirs.
9) Ginger cats, BBQ and trips to Amsterdam - do we care?
10) Pretending Monero is “well-distributed”.
11) All Monero trade volume on one exchange (Polo)
12) Worshipping idols of rethink-your-strategy. Yawn.
13) Being Smug Without True Innovation
Shadowcash shill?
Bytecoin was the original implementation of the cryptonote innovation, but it is unworkable as a currency. The low adoption and shadow mining have crippled it's privacy features. Monero is the second valid implementation of cryptonote, and one that has maintained transparency and honesty from the outset.
We know that CN is vastly superior to public blockchains, but by your logic no currency should ever be proud to feature a technology but the original implementation. Since the original implementation is fatally flawed, should we give up on CN forever?
Of course not. Monero is the obvious next step.
Please name one other alt with the same features and potential as Monero. You can't.
