However, it is quite depressing to see how ignorant (tunnel vision, boiling frogs, zombies) most people are even here in these supposedly enlightened forums of libertarian white males.
I'm sure you mean well, but the things you're saying look like the exact opposite of enlightenment to most of the people in this thread.
DooMAD, I like what is
linked from your signature. One mistake is you seem to assume that Bitcoin is the certain solution.
Okay it is quite clear now to me what is going on. If for example you study the linked website from DooMAD's signature and study his posts in that thread where he is debating me and factor in comments such as above, it is quite clear that the beta-males think they discovered the Holy Grail that can empower them to fight back (while getting rich at the same time!) and they are very butthurt when any one tries to tell them:
"Wait, the concept of decentralized crypto is great, but Bitcoin has serious flaws which render it incapable of giving you that win that you think you are getting".
I am here to make the decentralized cypto that will win.
I am not here to hang out with beta-male losers who can't comprehend.
Guys decide whether you want to follow the losers or the winners.
Be astute.
Signing off now. See ya at the winning coin. It will be up to you to find it in that sea of altcoin announcements. I won't be posting it here.
Clearly I'm not the one making the assumptions here.
I don't recall any of us stating that Bitcoin was going to be the only contender or that it was without flaw. All we're saying is you've gone off the deep end by taking your "what if" scenario well beyond the realms of reality. If they can't stop people torrenting movies and games, they won't be able to stop the flow of digital money.
While you're busy preaching to us about the flaws of Bitcoin, please try to consider the shortcomings of any coin you might deem technically superior. True superiority is usually determined a range of different factors, but a fairly traditional factor would be an overwhelming show of numbers. If you can get as many people using your chosen coin as are currently using Bitcoin, maybe you'll be on to something. Until then, your guess is no better than mine or anyone else's. That's all it is, guesswork. No one here knows for certain what the future of crypto will be and I'm pretty sure most people here aren't putting all their eggs in one basket because of that fact. The real beauty of crypto is that we don't have to stick with one individual coin. In fact, there probably won't be a single "winning" coin. If you think there will be, maybe you're the one missing the point of decentralised money.
I'm sure no one is going to mind if you want to take your "alpha" mentality elsewhere.
