I read it. Princeton needs to rethink their strategy of admitting students of the OP's caliber. Nothing earth shattering was discovered in that post at all. Just an excuse to strong arm people and it didn't work short term for some reason. Roll Eyes

Nothing earth shattering? How is purposeful deception not earth shattering? Based on the information provided we now know not to trust a group of cryptocurrencies that are most likely churned out by the same coin mill. I think that's pretty earth shattering.

It wouldn't be earthshattering that altcoin scams exist in general. This one is a little different because the technology appears to represent a significant advance, which is why it has gotten far more attention from many bitcoin developers and users. Also for that reason, many were reluctant to see the red flags, including when I pointed them out months ago on the Bytecoin thread. Now we know.
