Fair enough then! Just for the record, I own ~47K XMR, and I think monero has a great future, and I'm really excited at the prospect of being able to (maybe) teleport XMR around on the BCTD privacy network. I'm very impressed with jl777's desire to try and unite the whole crypto coin community into a 'super network' that adds privacy features to ALL coins. As an investor that makes all coins more valuable, but I'm disappointed some other monero followers seem to have missed that point.

I've been around this forum since mid 2012, and teleporting coins via the BTCD privacy network is the most exciting development I've seen since bitcoin itself.

As an investor in XMR I have spent a considerable time researching the competition particularly those coins that offer privacy in one way or another. As part of this research I have spent a fair amount of time on BTCD. The teleport idea does have merit. The privacy advantages here apply more to XBT or other similar coins rather than XMR, nevertheless the true paranoid could teleprot XMR using BTCD. What I do not like about BTCD is that it is a POW/POS hybrid rather than a pure POW coin such as XMR. For this reason I do not consider it a real competitor to XMR, since I am not convinced of the security of POS. In any event at best it is competing against other POS coins rather than POW coins.
