why people keep going for the "bitcoin something", or the "Eth something", or "Ltc something"... all these coins are usually shit made by scammers that just want to cash in on the hype gained through the name...
Or do you think that with so many developers that Bitcoin core has, there would be bitcoin genious going loose on BTT forum and producing new kinds of better bitcoin??
you can count 1 in a 1000 of these projects that it is not scam...

Money is the main factor for what they are being created and there is no serious purpose behind this. Bitcoin is the only true innovation so that I also agreed with you there is just marketing strategy who used to create fake hype and let them buy on fake promises. Bitcoin has great team of devs that is why its leading.

Sirs we disagree, the reason for our creation was to fix the mining centralization of Bitcoin caused by ASIC hardware. This has already been demonstrated to be a very real issue: ( https://www.trustnodes.com/2018/06/23/bitmain-nears-51-bitcoins-network-hashrate June 23)
Our algorithm was switched to be GPU mineable(Equihash) allowing for a more decentralized mining effort. The main factor in this is price, GPUs are more widely available already and cheaper. These are facts.

Now that Bitmain created an Equihash ASIC, we are hard forking to invalidate them and be true to our original vision. ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4502500 )

We forked from the Bitcoin chain which is why we adopted the Bitcoin name, however we do not compete in any way with Bitcoin, our algorithm does not compete with theirs. We have also remained true to the 'friendly fork' label. We are not Bitcoin, we do not want to 'beat' Bitcoin.

We all have our opinions on crypto projects but consider this, were we a scam we would have dumped and exit in December at ATH. Instead,we continue according to our Roadmap ( https://twitter.com/bitcoingold/status/952979467667951617 ). It should also be noted that we were the very first Bitcoin fork to switch to a GPU mineable algorithm.

Cheers.

So what about those 388k stolen coins that now being dumped daily 10pm on Bitfinex? hah? care to explain scammers? Your coin is 95% down from ATH. Those 388k dumping on Bitfinex by 10k parts. Scammers gonna scam. Pathetic.
