Bob creates random coin named something like Donkeycoin, issues an IPO, uses the IPO money to manipulate the market and pump the coin, then dumps on everyone.
Vitalik creates coin, issues an IPO, calls it not an IPO, uses the IPO money to manipulate the market and pump the coin, then dumps on everyone.
What exactly is the difference here?
This thread is a joke.
Vitalik is a talented developer and Bobsurplus does not even know how to code (I think he admitted this himself).
I absolutely understand why many people have concerns about ICOs and presales but this is not a fair comparison at all.
Vitalik will continue to support Ethereum long term. Bobsurplus has a history of jumping from coin to coin after he has extracted maximum profits
