There is nothing wrong about people having profit as a motive. You would probably agree however, in the majority of cases, that this leads them into malign attitudes. Everybody always starts with the best intentions.

This same benign initial motivation, having turned malign and metastasized, is right now destroying whole countries and nations of old. Just look around you.

But to keep things fair, the greed of BTCEX is the least of the world's problems right now  Wink

Psy would have to verify...

but I think what he meant to convey is how BCX has been shown to mine BTC when it is unprofitable but is now complaining as that being a flaw to SC to further spread deceit and her agenda.

So it's not necessarily bad to be profit motivated, but it is bad to do one thing and say another for sake of ridiculous propaganda. i.e. Warren Buffet making claims the rich should pay more in taxes when he is involved in near permanent state of litigation to get out of paying taxes (which would be unnecessary if he just paid what he is supposed to) and his business thrives on the death of other businesses.

+1.

And I didn't catch it, if that was what Psy meant.

Exactly what I meant... Both of you are right, you just described it more eloquently than me.
How was BCX coping with his losses when mining BTC was not profitable? Is it consistent with his current views? You know what they say about the noveau-riches...

PS: I have this way of saying things that leaves a lot to understand between the lines to the ones that really care. If they don't understand, well, that probably says more about them than it says about myself.
And using BCX arguments: Coinhunter started ignoring peoples' questions when he was caught lying.
So, should we conclude that BCX also ignores people because he knows that we, the ones who speak against him, are right and he can't possibly say anything to defend himself? <--- Just another contradiction... Look at the ignore list that he so proudly shows in his signature!
