Lol they backpedalled on the private ledger after advertising it so heavily because "it went against their values" or something like that.

I'm gonna look for the post just for the lolz and compare it to what they were proposing for Wraith beforehand.

And it amazed me that one isn't allowed to make an account to a site they've never registered for to be able discuss an issue of interest. I mean.. What the fuck is the point of forums existing... right? Not unless it's to kiss ass to a coin that is obviously faulty... Right?

I have looked at this thread since it was first created in April, and a lot of the questions that have been asked in the last few days simply have gone ignored. A lot of questions even before the last two legit attacks went unanswered because the issue was "fixed"...

People like you are why the general crypto community hates Verge. This will never change. Period. Stop deflecting you insecure child.

Either you start helping others out by linking them to sources, or shut the fuck and stop screaming FUD, because clearly you're doing nothing to help prevent the FUD...

Say what you want at this point. What's gonna matter more than words in the long run is legit progress from the Verge team, so I'll leave it at that.

This thread was started during the first attack back in April and continued to stay alive because of new attacks? Even though the latest attack was unsuccessful, the fact of the matter is that attempts are being made which warrants the existence of a place where these issue can be discussed.

You on the other hand have only responded with insults and 0 actual answers to any questions.

All you've manage to do successfully is project your insecurities.

Patelkaran.8798's behavior is exemplerary of how I was treated on the XVG telegram and discord when asking legitimate questions 2 months ago back when I was thinking of investing.

Somehow a concerned question === FUD to the majority of their community. You guys are seriously overly paranoid, without ever citing anything other than the dev's own incomplete answers.

The groupthink within the community is leading to some childish behavior and its sickening to watch. Literally every coin experiences FUD and fake news. Get the fuck over it. What stands out from XVG is how the community responds, and it's worrisome.

It's clear that marketing and coin price is a bigger priority rather than innovating.

The deflection from the dev is beyond annoying. He'd put a lot of minds to ease if he actually answered using his own words instead of busting out the old "DYOR" response.

Maybe because not all of us need to be able to hide transactions? It is a nice feature yes, but I look for more in cryptos than just being able to hide my transaction history. And even if I wanted it, there are other options? Is this not a free market? Am I not allowed to have options that don't have a sketchy recent history?
I like coins that aren't subject to network attacks like Verge.

And while I may get shit for this, I am one who actually likes the idea of paying taxes and whatnot... Maybe not under this current administration, but it is something I like to pay into nonetheless. So my transactions have no reason to go unrecorded... And there are plenty of other coins out there that are capable of transferring funds with better tech than XVG if that's all I wanted to do with it.

It's cool if others here have the need for privacy. That's fine. Simply put: there are better options.

Let the free market decide who comes out on top.


BTW this response isn't a knock on privacy coins. I own none. It's just that you're argument given the context of your pro-Verge position needed a new take on the situation at play.

I joined this site just to call you out. 4 years of lurking and your post is what it took to get me to join lmao.

I'm not invested in this XVG drama whatsoever since i could care less about privacy coins (privacy is an added feature that I could care less about since I'm not a shady fuck), but all it took was me looking at your recent post history to determine that you're clearly heavily invested in XVG and to call you out on it.

While this 3rd attack seems to be FUD, the premise of this thread still warrants its existence. And that's the fact that XVG was subject to attack when it this thread was created, and then again just a week ago.

This is simply inexcusable. Even if other cryptocurrencies are (or were) subject to attacks, the response on behalf of the Verge developer and the Verge community has been nothing but disgusting to watch from the sidelines.

One look at their Discord and Telegram and that's all it took to tell me that it was full of a bunch of strange people with "edgy" high school humor and who treat the crypto space as such. "Us vs them" mentality, yet somehow expect for the rest of the crypto space to somehow band with them for the sake of crypto's future and adoption....

This space will do just fine without this coin. Porn won't be the reason for mass crpyto adoption anyway.

And this is why the general community dislikes Verge... The constant deflection and lack of transparency.

A decent amount of this thread is full of deflection from the issues that were presented. And that seems to be the general theme behind Verge. Hide and deflect. If Telegram and Discord are any indication of the state of Verge's community (one who loves to use semantic jargon to go off on tangents and deflect with high school humor), then it simply can't survive.

The free market is a ruthless beast. Yes, it is what helped XVG gain traction during the last bull run (McAfee shill, which was huge exposure) and during the leadup to the Mindgeek announcement, however it's also going to be what takes it down. At the end of the day, no one is pointing a gun to anthers head to buy or sell a coin... Greed is...

Laissez faire. Let's see what this new codebase does for Verge and how the development team goes about releasing the next update, and we'll see from there.
