Nothing more disheartening than watching this scamcoin go up up up, while Monero gets punished by the huge supply available for shorting.

Your logic fails there imo.

Possible shorting just enables a more stable price shortterm. However longterm this doesn't have an effect at all on the price.

Dash will probably have more bigger moves up and down on their road but in the end the coin which has more real demand will win.

Probably even both will stay there for a long time.

I like Monero way better because of their ideological standpoint and i think Dash might be OK from a technological / investment standpoint but let's see how the people decide in the end.

Market is free and everyone can speak with his money.

I don't like this "manipulation" accusation all the time.

If a coin is really bad it will die in the end. Noone forces us to buy.
This is not like forcing us to use the USD to pay taxes...

Yes no one forces you to buy.

Just like no one forced people to invest their money with Bernie Madeoff right? Oh wait...

That logic doesn't work when it comes to scams.

Scammers will and can con people into buying into their scams/HYIP/etc.
