Re: [ANN][DASH] Dash | First Anonymous Coin | Inventor of X11, DGW, Darksend and InstantX

He sounded fairly supportive of alt coins, he suggests there is a potential scaling problem with the governance voting system.

Even still, his dialogue is a classic deflection without being negative about Dash. Not that it's his intention to be negative, but not to show he doesn't know all that much about it. This is pretty much standard with highly eloquent individuals. Politicians are extensively trained in this form of discourse.

Very common on TV and radio... there is actually a technical name which I forget right now.

"I think you are completely wrong and only say bogus, but I'm not going to tell you what"

"Ah yes, it very interesting you mention that. And I tend to agree with what you say. Nevertheless, there are other who believe that what I say actually has strong fundamentals, and "bogus" is in fact a cultural phenomena with a high degree of subjectiveness. Did you know the etymology of "bogus" actually comes from late 18th century, originally in the US, denoting a machine for making counterfeit money?"

Now tell me truthfully, when you read this^ did you hear Andrea's voice in your head?

I am a huge fan of Andreas myself, though what you are saying about the guy is not wrong. I think he is a master at public speaking, this is something I really admire in the guy and it goes a long way in evangelizing cryptocurrencies. To be the best public speaker in a subject does not require you to be the greatest expert in said subject, it is a different skill set. What Andreas does is performance and art, I look up to what he does hoping that one day I might be as good of a public speaker as he is.

I do respect his thinking, but it is good to keep in mind that when Andreas does a speech, there is acting as well as intellectualism, these two go together to arouse our emotions and inspire us. This I appreciate, I want to be inspired.

The term you are looking for might be demagogue or sophist. Though personally I think that is a bit harsh, I just think he is a great public speaker, knowing how to engage his audience and inspire, we should be thankful that we have such a person promoting cryptocurrency.

I completely agree with you!

Definietly not a demagogue. That is plain bullshit in layman's terms. Sophism is also not it, though comes closer, but not really what he does. He doesn't deceive anyone. He sometimes deflects by validating the "opposing" argument or question without exploring it's content, or adding to the train of thought. The term I'm looking for may no even exist in english, I know it in portuguese though my brain seems to not want to remember it, and it comes from the entertainment/political merketing field.

It's easy to tell once you understand what he is doing.

Still love all his appearance. He is a indeed and artist.
