That is not the official statement of the dev team. Please reconsider what you are doing, this is not a healthy mindset to have. As humans, we are supposed to build things up, not break them down. It is our duty. Please reconsider.
Exactly. I mean ALL they did was hire TFM/AM, work with CZ, jl7777, and who knows who all else outside of their team, implement some improvements under duress, and avoid, best they could, poking the bear.
If you're just a lowly non-whale hodler such as myself, you'd have to be pretty impressed with the way the team responded. I can't speak for professionally knowledgeable folks, but the fact that they reached out and, well, EVOLVED, both the code and the way CN teams applied efforts across coins. I'd think that would give you some renewed hope. It's probably the only way crypto CAN truly evolve.
Hell, I need to get to sleep, and I suspect you are going to do, or not do, whatever it is that you've already chosen. I don't care if my non-whale stake of XMR gets nuked. I view it all as speculation, anyway--small portfolio potatoes for me. My personal stake amounts to about what I'll probably lose betting on football games this weekend. But it seems pretty clear that they did everything possible...more than I would have thought possible, given the difficulty of proving a negative...in a pretty short period of time.
And, oh by the way, not every XMR holder is a douchebag. The last couple pages of replies have, I think, been pretty reasonable. Mostly.
