As for VRC... crickets. Socal had to show the roadmap himself because the devs seem busy with other things right now. I mean, just read their "team" link on the VRC web page:


The devs have delegated a lot of tasks to "VeriLeaders". So, Socal and ScottAllyn have relieved the devs of this time consuming task by putting together a very polished Road Map of VeriCoin projects. (The status bars were my input.) It's a community, working together to ensure the success of the coin. The community is on IRC, VeriTalk.info, and this thread. Anyone reading this can help strengthen the community by contributing their expertise and talents. Otherwise, just stake your coins and strengthen the network. Or, if you have no coins, get off this thread and keep your thoughts to yourself.



But you can't argue with the rest of my post, because it's hard to argue with the truth, so you pick on that one sentence.

It's nice to want things.

But these devs have serious day jobs, VRC is a side project to them. They don't have the time to create the best implementation of these ideas that you all have.

Some devs from other coins are working full time, churning out one after the other.

As for VRC... crickets. Socal had to show the roadmap himself because the devs seem busy with other things right now. I mean, just read their "team" link on the VRC web page:


Patrick:
"He is currently pursuing a dual PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology as well as Computational Biology and Molecular Biophysics. He also runs a technology website, www.pnosker.com. Pat holds 3 US patents and is co-inventor of five more including one on influenza therapeutics along with Doug Pike."

Douglas:
"is currently pursuing a PhD at Rutgers University in Biomedical Engineering. His Computational Biophysics work includes being the lead developer of a novel protein design software library, as well as an author of numerous scientific publications. In addition to VeriCoin, Doug and Pat are co-inventors of a process to discover influenza therapeutics."

And David is a cubicle slave at microsoft.


To create a coin with future validity, you have to do it full time. But they're not going to push all that away for a side project which suffers from a tarnished image.

What! Who are you and what have you done with Barabbas  !!!

I was about to same the same thing... that was the oddest post I've seen in months


You're idiots if you guys ever thought that barabbas was a troll. He was always one of VRC's strongest supporters.

RDD coin was 51% attacked because no one was staking there coins to secure the network, feather coin, etc.



There was no "staking" when that happened, that was before RDD went PoSv. The 51% attack happened when it was still in PoW.

Now many are staking their coins.

There is an ebb and flow to all markets, including the best coins.  The cynics are vocal in the ebb and the optimists in the flow.  The hack and aftermath set back our timelines, we are coming through on our promises soon.

This. The same pattern repeats itself - coin goes up everyone is happy posting crappy image memes. Price goes down, the trolls/fudders climb out of their smelly caves and preach death and gloom.

+1


Why "+1"?

You don't want the same pattern to repeat itself, because that would make VRC another dead coin.

Never heard of Intersango.

Anyways, the devs of BRIT are public, which means it's an honest attempt. That alone will mean that it will go beyond the nascent satoshi levels that it's at right now.


And they'll have Fiat to BritCoin via instant bank transfer soon.

I bought in at the 230-330 level, it's at around 800 right now, so I was right to sell VRC and buy something else. I predicted it just fine. And BRIT is going to 10'000 satoshi or something like that, so let's see.

Sorry to derail the thread.

Investing is not about going with your own logic, but about figuring out the logic of others. And the others moved on, which is why VRC got delisted on an exchange.
(...)

Sorry, but I think you are wrong here. Investing is about figuring out what others will do in the future.

What you describe is following the crowd - it is called herd instinct and in general it leads to bad results.



Ya that's what I meant, you have to figure out what others will do in the future, that's for sure.

Don't get me wrong, I feel the devs did the right thing with the rollback (see my previous posts on this very thread, I was a supporter), but I can't expect the speculators to put effort into seeing it my way.

Investing is not about going with your own logic, but about figuring out the logic of others. And the others moved on, which is why VRC got delisted on an exchange.

And I'm not fudding because of some threat to my other alts, I assure you that I don't baghold, if any of my choices are wrong, I will change my mind. If I was worried about VRC going up, why did I sell? Check my post history, I owned VRC, and now I don't.

You laugh at BRIT now, but keep an eye on it, you'll see that it will go higher than VRC could in the same time period. And you don't have to believe me for this to be true.

I bought first at 600-800, sold a lot on the spikes and buyback in the lows, i´m in huge profit with VRC and staking my stash, don´t worried about price.



RDD gives you twice as much at staking.




You come here to make FUD and your coins are dead. That is a fact.


I thought you said you don't care about price? So it's not for you to talk about coins being dead, especially when VRC is pulling a BC. Now that's dead.

And RDD has a more detailed roadmap for the next months, VRC does not. So you don't know what "dead" means.

And BRIT just started, it's a fetus.

Everything I said is a fact. It got delisted. Its wallet is badly designed. It's singled out as an example of what not to do buy new devs. And the VRC thread is nothing but arguing. There's nothing bullish here, sorry.

This is not fud.

But I can see VRC getting pumped, don't get me wrong, I just can't baghold waiting for some pump. This is not a coin to buy and hold unless you intend to sell at the next pump. This is blackcoin all over again.

Britcoin? another copycat country shitcoin



It's new, it has nowhere to go but up. And atleast its wallet is better.



Reddcoin? more slow than BTC transaction hahaha



This is being fixed already. And RDD will grow more than VRC that's for sure.

I'm talking about making money. What do you want investors to do? lose money with the likes of you guys? Fuck that shit. I'm not losing money for your warped sense of bagholding duty. I go where the growth goes. All alts are crap, do you actually think VRC has no faults?

20 sats....just LOL

I made a huge profit, yes.

And as for the concept of the VRC devs being public about their identities, that's not unique to VRC.

Look at Britcoin, it's very new, and the devs have been made public:



Who are the staff behind BritCoin?

William Thomas (Welsh) - Founder
Steven Russell (English) - Coin developer
Christian Bendiksen (Norwegian) - Designer
Lee Exley - (English) - Media/PR/Marketing




...and they'll have Fiat to BritCoin via instant bank transfer soon.


http://i.imgur.com/VpkD7P0.png


It presently sits between 650 and 750 satoshi. And with 20m total coin supply, this thing could get pumped to 10'000 satoshi or something (maybe more).

Keep an eye on this one. I see way more growth there than VRC. If you don't like this idea of chasing the pumps, then keep bagholding and arguing to each other in this thread. But admit that your not happy right now, bagholders never are. Give in to sanity and chase the pumps. This is not about being religious to one coin, there are others that can surpass VRC easy.

And check out what's written on the first page of the Britcoin thread, VRC is used as an example of what not to do:


In light of the recent VRC - MintPal fiasco, we can assure BritCoin adopters that there is no possibility of us compromising the sanctity of the blockchain and have a strict view on bailing out exchanges.  We believe this creates a dangerous precedent for the future of crypto currency and we firmly stand against the the notion of blockchain rollbacks.  



VRC has lost its grassroots edge.

I sold when it reached 18k at the last pump.

If it went down, it was because people saw an opportunity to finally sell and take their profits.

This VRC has become another BC.

It will get pumps and then go lower than where it was before that pump, like those other coins.

And C-CEX has delisted VRC because of low volume (but it's C-CEX Tongue)

And that wallet is badly coded, these devs have a real life outside of this, they can't give VRC 100%.

And when it comes to gaining users outside of crypto, Reddcoin is doing a way better job at getting those outsiders, like it's a whole other world. Reddcoin is focused like a laser on the social networks. That's the right demo to aim for. And their dev team is constantly churning out new stuff with a defined path:

https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Faf1roZ1.jpg&t=542&c=HIRTRZwKkICQdw

You will see much better long term growth from RDD than VRC, that cannot be denied. So why should I baghold VRC? Because it's aiming at the outsider? Okay, but they suck at that, the devs have no street smarts for it. And they're busy with other stuff, just look at their CVs, they're doing way more important stuff than an alt coin. And that wallet is really badly designed, just compare it to the RDD wallet, again it's like two different worlds.

Concerning Reddcoin, I don't think there will be major dumping on August 2nd. The manipulators can't compete with a sudden change to the coin supply.

Miners are presently dumping 18 million coins per day on Reddcoin, but on august 2nd, all that dumping will end because of POSV.

And from august 2nd, POSV will only create 1.2 to 1.5 million coins per day. Now compare that to 18 million from before.

If Redd is to follow the same pattern of previous coins that went through such a transition, we could see the price reach 333 to maybe even 5000 satoshi.

Doug did say that the fiat/vrc wallet integration is far from finished, and that there's more to come. So they've said enough. They can't come here and cuddle you on every page.



I'm not asking for cuddles. I'm asking them to demonstrate some leadership and intelligence by participating in a constructive discussion about features which would be potentially game changing.

They don't have to say they will implement anything.

Vague statements and defensive attitudes are wearing thin..


Oh you want someone to talk to? Well unlike you, they have a life.
