Why so defensive?? If you are a paid troll, are you allowed to deny it? I guess you would be. But your defensiveness makes it seem like you're more guilty.
If I were a paid troll, I would deny it, no? Silly question...
Tell me where I have "spread fear" without backing it up with argument.
Meanwhile I can tell you right away one of the lies that marketeers keep spreading: that "bitcoins will be extremely valuable because there can be only 21 million of them". The truth is that there can be an infinte number of cryptocoins, any brand of them is just as good for commerce as any other, and there is no reason to believe that bitcoin will be among the ones that will succeed if they do succeed.
This has been refuted again and again. People want a secure, noninflating coin. Not evapourcoin. Not resourcecoin. They dont want coins for dogs or dope or sex. One coin. Not countrycoin, not citycoin. One international coin. They don't want a coin with more frequent blocks. Not premine. Not centralized. They want one coin.
Now there is competition, built on the sound principles of bitcoin, just another chain. Those kinds of coins could be competitors. Maybe one other, maybe two. But bitcoin is the first and the best protected coin. Even if two other coins should become just as prevalent, that would only reduce the price of bitcoin by 3 at the endgame, when the maximum user mass has been achived. Most probably, altcoins could ever only reach a small part of the total value.
So moaning and grinding and harping of this nonproblem again and again, without even taking these points into consideration, well, that is trolling. Trolling is putting out a false claim, only to watch the common sense participants here wasting time repeating the arguments, repeating and rerepeating the real explanation. This way of working is exactly what is to be expected from a paid shill, a false grassroot which is called astroturfing. You are either that or you are ignorant, nonlogical, without common sense. It is also possible. Locked into a tunnel view, due to defect working of your left or right brain, broken, stupid, willfully ignorant, afraid, traumatized in your childhood. Something.
