The biggest complainers tend to be the people expecting a reward for not doing anything. I'd love to know what Skip60 has done for the project that entitles him to constantly spew his bullshit into this thread. All I see are lies about his holdings and critique of others efforts. My analysis is that he dumped at 18k and is trying his hardest to get the price back down there so he can buy back in. He's a trojan horse packaged as a concerned investor. Thankfully there is an ignore button for those who know where to find it.

In my view, the influx of anonymous shitcoins into the altcoin market promising decentralized marketplaces right after the release of the SDC motherboard article is/was a defense mechanism by scam developers and pump groups. They pumped out enough shitcoins to distract potential investors from the real innovator. None of them will deliver on their promises except SDC and none of them will make headline news. After the dust settles and they get delisted from exchanges SDC will still be here and those pumped and dumped coins will retain their headless cheerleader communities. The SDC development team is taking its time and effort to craft a real solution and each release is a precursor to the project's next major milestone. From what I can tell the bulk of developmental work is almost done and we could expect the alpha/beta milestone very soon.

Remember SDC was featured on Vice.com, one of the top news publications in the world. This opens the door for future coverage by large mainstream media publications and that means more exposure for the project, in turn resulting in larger growth. Something 99% of the projects listed here can't look forward to. An artificial pump wont get your project in the mainstream limelight (coindesk and cointelegraph are not mainstream). However, real development and delivery will. At the time of this writing the coin is worth around 14 cents a coin. I believe in the very near future we will all look back and laugh at these haters and their shitty speculations. The project is exposed to the world right now and despite what the charts read the coin is on the precipice of a meteoric rise to one of the top market caps. The only thing holding it back right now is the failures of other projects before it that promised a similar platform. Where they failed SDC will succeed with delivery. For those crypto advocates that can read between the lines there is no better coin to put your BTC than SDC.

Let's start acting like a mature community. Do what you can to assist others in learning about the SDC ecosystem.. be it your offline friends or someone new to the space. The community will only grow once it realizes it's position on the world scale. New investors coming here don't want to see bickering they want to see unity and brotherhood amongst like-minded people. If you'd like your investment to grow do your part and enjoy the ride! How about we reserve this thread for actual discussions about the project instead of piss poor speculations from subpar traders.

+1, beautiful. I feel the same, but I couldn't put it so nicely together.

Stop hating and let's all collaborate together. For those concerned about price (not pointing at anyone again..), there's a nice thread over at Slack. Let's keep this clean, friendly and informative.

+1

Hate the shitcoins.

Vis-a-vis price:
Some are more cashless than others (I guess I fall in that category Wink

). Certainly SDC has gained dramatic value in the last few months, lets say 300% (from ~20k to ~60k). LOL, by NASDAQ standards this is insane growth. However the gains in SDC have been lost from a depressing drop in BTC value.

The future looks good. SDC is getting stronger and with any luck BTC just might too (preice-wise)

BUt this has been a tricky period.

Sure. Now there is only one coin with real equivalent fiat value. BTC price is dropping as the deficiencies of the coin become manifest: the lack of privacy, the block size limit, the expanding blockchain. SDC addresses one of those. What we're learning is that there may never be "one coin to rule them all" just for technical reasons, and that may be just fine.

It is very interesting being in such uncharted economic territory. BTC was unlike anything that had previously existed. A fully anonymous, decentralized, and unregulated marketplace has also never existed, but we're about to have one. Our future could be as bright as it was for a young man in 1980 who just got his Computer Science degree. Or it could come crashing down, but I'm cautiously optimistic.
