Because I am invested in Bitcoin none of my arguments are therefore valid? This is a strange thing to say to me, if anything being invested in Bitcoin aligns my incentives to do what is best for Bitcoin.
Invested in altcoins -> preaching in favor of altcoins due to bias.

Maybe instead of constantly attacking with me ad hominem you should argue rationally with me and not resort to such manipulative tactics.
If I call you an idiot somewhere in between, that isn't ad hominem as I'm not trying to undermine your argument by doing so. In other words, there have been no ad hominem attacks.

So according to you, your counter argument to what I have said here is that Ethereum is a mutable shit coin and that all that matters is "Distance-to-Vitalik". If that is your complete argument we can leave it at that, people reading this can decide for themselves what they think is more correct.
Correct, because what you wrote is such a big piece of crap that doesn't even need argumentation. People would just end up wasting their time reading it, like I did.

You are saying that I must be either a troll, shill or an idiot. And you are claiming that this is not ad hominem or character assassination and that you are being completely objective and rational by saying this.
That is correct. I have not undermined any arguments, nor specified a singular person to be in any of those groups. My assessment may be flawed if I've missed some potential groups (which I'm sure I have).

Fun how this drifts away from the original topic and forking, because your position is inherently wrong due to a number of factors that are not being considered. BU assumes everything is going to be a fairy tale and everyone is going to create 16 MB worth of nice, and sigop friendly transactions. Roll Eyes
