Re: Petition for Monero to have its own board, so we don't bother the altcoins.

all altcoins are just scam for now, included monero. there is no real use for monero. the mainstream coins are bitcoin, litecoin and dogecoin. these three coins creating their own voice/news outside of bitcointalk and working hard for cryptocurrency as whole. chance we all have heards about bitcoin, litecoin, dogecoin on news, social media and other sources. monero investors are just scammers within bitcointalk community and it don't even deserve this thread.

There are no real uses for any coins, Bitcoin included, with the possible exception of a bit of gambling, trading between each other, and a relatively small amount of dark market stuff. They're all about future potential right now. The total user base of cryptocurrencies is a maybe (very optimistically) a million people out of 7 billion (i.e. 1/7000 of the world population). Or 1/1000 of the so-called developed world.

A lot of Monero activity occurs outside bitcointalk and the Bitcoin world entirely. I'm sure the other credible projects are doing the same.

plus these companies;

If you look at the public statements of those companies, nearly all of them get a brief spurt of activity when they first announce Bitcoin (if that, maybe the newer ones not even that), then it dies down quickly to near zero.

There is a reasonable analysis of Bitcoin activity here: http://www.ofnumbers.com/2015/04/22/the-flow-of-funds-on-the-bitcoin-network-in-2015/

It shows that the entire Bitpay system (thousands of merchants) processed about $50 million total over an entire year. Peanuts. This is entirely in line with every other analysis I've seen.

Dell, Braintree, newegg.com.. plus thousands of mom and pop stores
monero = what's that? never heard of it = gay name #no offence to gay people#

About what I would expect from you.

Trying to use some kind of middle-school edgy language, and then not even having the guts to stand behind it without some kind of disclaimer. What are you, 13 years old? Go do your algebra homework, and maybe one day understanding cryptography will be within your grasp.

By your terrible logic, bitcoin was doomed in 2009 because no one had ever heard of it.

This thread is about how Monero needs its own board because we are tired of trolls from other alts getting annoyed at our success. Your unwanted invasion into a successful petition only validates our claim that Monero definitely needs its own section on Bitcointalk.
