Supporting (holding) a coin that goes in a direction that you think is wrong is just stupid, so I'm kindly advising you not to do so (but you're free to ignore my advice). Also, I find it useless or borderline trolling to stir up the ASIC debate here since it's already decided after intense discussions. It's like criticizing Zcash's trusted setup in their forum.

Open sourced projects are constantly criticized and improved on... thats the point of open source projects... and how exactly am I trolling??

I like AEON because its a cryptonote coin that has close ties to monero and I view it as a hedge to Monero.

And people come to /r/Monero or on the monero threads here and criticize certain aspects all the time, only to be not censored and debated.

I don't think it's stupid to doubt your own wisdom and hedge accordingly. Personally I don't think monero made the right decision with respect to randomx v. sha3, but I didn't dump my monero. There's other factors to consider, such as community, liquidity, history, etc, besides the fact that I may just be flat out wrong.

There were more decisions that Monero made that appeared to be in a hurry to have things work and done without foreseeing the longterm effects. A heavier blockchain because of RingCT was one of them.

@stoffu. It is not trolling. Some users take more time to accept. However, I support the Monero development team if they want to be the experimental coin for Asic resistance.
