this is just a very late night (and too many g+ts) post....as most of you know i stoped postin here after fluffypony's hilarious 'lets' crach the market post' some months back.
But seriously, can someone please gime me a precis as to what the fuck is going on..forks/airdrops/etc?
XMR used to be the bes alt coin out thee,,,best etech, tech devs, best map,....this eens to heve gone to shit despite the fact it has been adopted by Dreamarket.
So, what the fuck is going on?

I hve a LOT of capital tied up in XMR (basicLLY ceause Im a privacy nerd) but one thing I've realised in 5/6 yers of crypto is that the tech means nothng...its the polituiics behind the tech that a makes or brakes a project.
Opiions of oldies are most welcome, trolls please keep your council.
Wow! Hello. Haven't seen your face around here in a while.
Development is, if anything, accelerating not decelerating. Look at the explosion of activity half way through 2017
Have you heard about bulletproofs? They will bring a space savings of 80+% on the blockchain. Code is written and the peer review process is fully funded.
Anyway the fundamentals are as strong as ever but i'll let someone else speak to the politics. Except maybe that I'll add that John McAfee is running around evangelizing for us now. So that's pretty cool.
