And MPOE-PR isn't making MPOE/MPEX look bad???
There's quite the difference between being right and being wrong. There is also quite the difference between telling the truth and lieing. The job of the PR is to be right and tell the truth. Packaging is secondary in this discussion.
Since when do the "majority of big time investors" care about when "MPOE-PR called it out"?
Since about a few quarters ago. Why, were you entertaining delusions of grandeur?
I can only imagine the pain felt by those with pre-orders to see the man who runs this company act in such a way on the CES floor convention floor
They are actually celebrating his "triumph".
Always remember: Bitcoin is a religion, not a currency.
The advantage of this is, to quite Buffett again,
(We are enormously indebted to those academics: what could be more advantageous in an intellectual contest - whether it be bridge, chess, or stock selection - than to have opponents who have been taught that thinking is a waste of energy?)
Boonies above is a fine case study in this: he used to matter, a coupla years ago. Meanwhile he was in GLBSE, he was in this, he was in that (don't worry boonies, I won't actually disclose your investment history, I'm nice where it matters) and he's by now whittled himself into insignificance. Apparently he hasn't learned anything whatsoever from this, for instance about the relative values of being nice versus being truthful.
Give it another six months or so for the "whales" in their own minds invested in the various ASICs scams to be wiped and we'll finally have rational BTC. Everything starts as a religion.
Given how humble I am regarding my 'investment history' i am certainly not suffering from delusions of grandeur. Though I am quite thankful that I was only in possession of a few bonds in GLBSE at the time of it shutting down.
Nor do I think that the "majority of big time investors" care what I think, especially since I believe that they steer clear of these forums. So maybe that is who you are talking about, outsiders with deep pockets.
If you think that the function of PR is to be right and to tell the truth (about whatever the PR chooses), that certainly would explain your behavior.
