IPO is not a premine because it gets split between investors, and not held by the dev. Not even close to the same thing.
SO let me get this right, you just want to dump the coin, yet bad mouth it to maximize profit? I really hope you never run a business because I feel sorry for your workers who would be out of a job real quick due to you going belly up.
The best way to get the max out of the coin is just either stay silent and keep mining, or keep mining and try to help the dev with Ideas or even push it a bit yourself.
I do the mine while its easy under the radar, keep a low profile, see where the dev takes it. I did this with Megacoin when everyone was making fun of the poor guy who spoke broken English, and they were chasing around the next quick dump coin. I also did this with XC, and in fact invested into that one a bit while people were dumping for mega cheap on the first exchange.
IMO, we will see how dedicated the dev is. She might be. Indications is she is at least trying. And to be honest, if I was her or a supporter of a coin, I would do the exact opposite of what a person like you would say, because i would just assume your in it for the quick dump ( which BTW you even yourself stated is true, which confirms what I suspected to begin with )... which would not be in the best interest long term for the coin or the investors in the coin.
Please dont take this personally, I just used you as an example, for you kinda made it easy to do so.
Not at all... crypto is never personal unless you work at it
Of course I said I would dump. But my strategy is not just dump fully. I will dump only enough to cover my overhead expenses.... in this case the IPO cost. The rest is for gambling. I don't badmouth it to maximize profits... I just stated some facts about the thread. It really is not going to affect the outcome of the coin. By your logic then, coins with "to the moon" comments should be doing really well What is said on the threads don't usually deter people... unless its an elaborate multiple account FUD attack with scam accusations etc. Posts like mine are walls of text that pass by, hardly affecting anything. I honestly don't think the dev is all that much of a go getter, to actively push the coin. I mean (no offence to the dev), how hard is it to find a trustable escrow on bitcointalk? The place is swarming with them. I sent her a PM with names and links of the popular ones. So they were busy... she did'nt get back to me asking if I knew anyone else or anything like that. She just announced passively all escrows are busy. I don't think she got the importance of one... that if she went that extra few steps to get one, a 10 - 15 BTC could've easily been collected with that 10 day announcement and judging by the last minute depositors. So ya... I doubt she would actively push for anything. But she will definitely stick around for any wallet updates or things like that.
