You know we're close to the bottom when the trolls start showing up. The next couple weeks should be interesting.

The trolls showing up likely has something to do with Bytecoin's zombie reawakening. They've always had a hard on for trolling Monero and yes there are paid trolling services that use sock puppet accounts, purchased accounts, etc. so the coordinated appearance of multiple 'different' trolls is not surprising (I've been personally solicited by them to use their services).


Zombie is an apt description here. If we assume a constant price for BCN  in inflation adjusted USD, my prediction is that with BCNs current emission curve, and assuming no CryptoNight ASICS within a decade it will be possible to launch a 51% attack on Bytecoin using a single video card. If a CryptoNight ASCIC is developed then its demise will be a lot faster.
