There are also some false claims such as their staking being more energy efficient, when it is an exact line for line clone of Peercoin, just rewritten in C++ 11.

Videlicet was referring at that time to the code that John Connor had uploaded to github. John later revealed that it was 'fake' code designed to throw off haters or whatever.

So, videlicet was correct about the code that he saw. But it turned out that it wasn't the actual code of the coin. Just a trick to throw off haters/catch people out/waste the time of code reviewers.

No, john was referring to the zerotime test code and fake whitepaper for zerotime, not the committed code that has been open sourced and able to be compiled for some time.

why would a dev post a fake whitepaper / code? fudding his own project? its been bothering me since i read that.

If he's just one person, with the speed he pumps out lines of code, he's truly a genius in my opinion; but sometimes he does things I don't understand, like that.

I believe his reasoning was that he would get a lot of devs to attack him because of obvious flaws and then when the real paper and code were released, they'd have to really look into it.

hmmmm. well its his call, he is the dev, but seems foolish to post fake code, because then you have a 100% chance of bringing FUD to your doorstep.

But he showed a lot of so called experts were in fact scammy FUDers....you should be calling out them not a John Connor for exposing them....Personally I thought it was a great move. I would do something similar in his position if I had thought of it.

I dont think posting fake code / whitepaper could ever be a "great move" in any situation.

Cause you're just a forum poster who never worked on a project for months to see it attacked by people....like yourself.

Grow up...

I'm not attacking this project, you fool, so stop attacking me. I simply asked why the hell would a dev post bogus code and whitepapers and bring fud to his own project? I've yet to hear an answer that is rooted in reality, thats all. This is my last post on this subject, if you still feel the need to insult me, pls do so on PM

Bangomatic, it`s time that you dump vnl and that you come back to your favorite sdc which is a shit coin by the way!
