Smooth, you have stated that a considerable amount of work has gone into SDC, yet you still call it a scam.
True and true. I explained further on this thread. There is a brand of scam that involves cloning something with no substance and then pumping it (for example several hundred alts). There is another brand of scam that involves doing some development and then promoting it in an aggressive and deliberately misleading and deceptive way (for example SDC or BCN, although BCN's substantive contribution to cryptotechnology was vastly more than SDCs).
And where and who are all these SDC pumpers you keep talking about
All over this damn forum. For example, there was a recently thread about "DRK vs. XMR". The SDC pumpers couldn't read the subject though, and decided that was a good place to start spewing the nonsense about tokens and zero knowledge and "not a copy of cryptonote" all the rest.
SDC is at .05 US
Ask yourself where it would be if it wasn't being relentlessly promoted.
So I suppose Monero would be the former type of scam, because its a copy and paste fork of cryptonote/bytecoin. Please let us know when you get a good working GUI wallet. Shadow wallet has you defeated.
