that's true but what if mintpal were staking? or some other exchange decides to get greedy and use their hot wallets to stake its PoS coins.
they claim they weren't but now that the idea is out there...
Nice that we agree, because that's what I was saying exactly happened. Hence, Buy Vericoin, Dump Mintpal.
Mintpal is the problem, not POS, not the community's decision to fork, MINTPAL is the problem and yes they lied several times recently.
If you trade at mintpal now you are doing it wrong. If you dump vericoin because the community made a distributed decision then you are doing it wrong, but I'll be glad to sell you a bag around 300K when we get there, when you're panic buying back in.
