The thing about trolls is that facts don't matter to them. Their purpose in life is to spread piss and vinegar. Most of these haters are blind followers of the "oh, it's cool to hate Max" movement. They have no original thoughts or facts to support their negative claims. Indeed, from watching the self-congratulatory zombie trolls on mcxnow, it's quite clear that most of these guys are probably in their early 20s, have no meaningful source of steady income, and choose instead to live in their parents' basements, sitting in front of a troll box 22 hours of each day and tending to their group masturbation hate efforts. They can't be bothered to actually watch/listen to Keiser to understand his credentials because that would require disconnecting from the hive mind for 30 minutes, which might lead to their sudden death.

The great thing about trolls, though, is that because they can't have an independent thought, they will quickly change their position on maxcoin when (or to be more conservative, if) it turns the tide. As m_murfy eloquently pointed out before, many of the fundamentals of maxcoin are sound: good supply, currently very cheap, fair mining, great security and difficulty smoothing, support from a individual with credentials and a huge audience, and extremely fast confirmations. The speed of confirmations are a HUGE advantage of maxcoin. Widespread adoption of maxcoin for use in commerce is probably the biggest factor giving it enormous long-term, sustained value, and those that are investing heavily in it know that. Long-term value is a concept not understood by the vast majority of crypto traders as many of them think they can avoid having real jobs by day trading one scam-coin after another. They don't understand the notion of buy and hold. Of course, the history of bitcoin prices over the years should have taught those people a lesson, but the crypto space is full of new entrants that don't know much about that history.

In fairness, we can't say with certainty that maxcoin will succeed. Keiser has many enemies among the banksters who I'm sure are playing a role in leading the zombie haters. But if you look at history, game-changing people (like Keiser) and ideas (like bitcoin) often receive the most resistance early on because they're on the right track against the current power systems that stand to lose their throne.

For the record, yes, I own a lot of max, and am buying more every day. I don't worry about the current price. Instead, I use it as a buying opportunity. However, I can do that because I have a long-term strategy in mind here, which again, is a foreign idea to many in the crypto space. Obviously, people like Max Keiser, Karl Gray (who many troll "experts" have never even heard of) and a few of us DO understand long-term value, and those are the individuals who stand to gain the most as (the very, very, young) maxcoin grows.

Trolls, have at it. We know you have more time to post on forums and toll boxes than those of us with jobs, families, responsibilities, and worthwhile lives.

Very well said goombaloon!
I couldn't agree more with the points you made in this post.
Glad to see there are still some rational thinkers left in this community.

Maxcoin will succeed! Its hated by the normal pumperdumpers because it may draw attention away from their favorite scamcoin.
