That's incorrect. It was precisely one of our core team members who announced their suspicions (or course this could never be completely proven) that it may have been deliberately crippled, last year shortly after launch when it was discovered and we undertook to fix it.
...
There was nothing wrong with the history of Monero. It's one of if not the cleanest coins and launches in history.
Same as how recently I showed how your web wallet MyMonero.com
was storing user's private keys in a cookie and conveniently sending them to the server. Again, after I expose this 'bug', there was no official announcement.
Given your own 'shady' beginnings and operations even now 1 year after Monero launch, if you really want to investigate scams, you should probably relinquish your titles of 'core team' for XMR / AEON. Maybe then people might start to take your claims of neutrality seriously.
No thank you. And I don't claim neutrality, particularly. I claim that people should evaluate the facts on their own merit, regardless of the source.
Assuming it was a developer who pointed out that you launched a deliberately crippled miner to the Monero community, I assume that by not contesting the other information that we know you have read now, you are not denying that it is true?
