Re: ion.cash "developer" a.k.a. Anonymint goes off the deep end
Know who your "friends" are, and don't treat them with contempt.
I discovered that here in cryptoland, you can never be quite sure who your friends are.
You were gleeful when you thought I had destroyed my political reputation with users. As if that is going to help you compete with me.
Gleeful??? Oh man!
You are so focused on how thin skinned everyone is. You immediately jump on my words "users know they are stupid" wherein I explaining that in the context of "they want easier and don't want to be bothered".
Why do you hold me to such a fine toothed comb scrutiny?
All that matters is who delivers a product that is popular and solves the needs that users and investors have.
You try to frame it as if by defending my reputation against a punk, that I have destroyed my chance to do anything important in Cryptoland.
You are effectively saying that we have to be politically correct else we are useless.
And I reject that. The entire Western world is fucked up with that and the tide is turning. Do you see how popular Donald Trump is because he is saying "stop the politically correct bullshit".
My time is coming. And you will learn some new tricks.
Not everyone is out to get you, seriously.
Not everyone. If you become a serious threat to certain groups, they will be out to get you.
My perception is that so far no one is taking you that seriously, so that is why they are not attacking you too much. They are attacking me because my claims are serious. I don't mince my words. I say frankly what is.
I look forward to the opportunity to go head to head with you, and may the best tech+marketing+direction+everything in between win....I'd feel cheated out of potential victory if you were to screw things up yourself before we got the chance.
Sure great. I also applaud more competition and also more experiments on how to solve the problems in today's world.
As I told everyone close to me, I am doing my work because I want to use it. I want these features. It isn't just for everyone else. It is for me too.
Edit: what is really disappointing from my side is I told my inner group that we would have a policy of not responding to attacks. And then I violated the policy I was advocating. This taught me an important lesson. That is Bitcointalk is dysfunctional. Even members of my own inner group have been sucked into these cat fights. It has happened to nearly everyone on the forum.
Edit#2: and what I had been thinking over the past say 24-36 hours or so, is that it is going to require a complete break away from Bitcointalk. I was already leaning that direction with my statements about a Wiki. And now I am thinking even more simplified than that. I am think all that really matters is the end user client. They either are enticed to use it or not.
