It's just sad that BCH never took off, and never was able to find its development properly. It was the better tech. Lately I am doubting any Bitcoin chain will really make it.

Than you haven't been following very well what is going on in the BCH space.
replied 1367d
Oh I have. Sadly in this case the better tech doesn't seem to matter.
replied 1367d
It just went up almost $25 like a day! per bch
replied 1365d
It is sad that you say that as if you are making a point. I really wish BCH had done better. It has become one of the lost crypto sadly.
replied 1366d
Oh it will matter in time. That and the fact that BCH has no single core team.
replied 1365d
None of that matters. The real world doesn't care about how the development works. Sadly everyone got too caught up in the battle to help make it taken seriously.

Cryptos that have a "foundation", miner tax with clear beneficiaries, a company behind or whatever will all be fragile going forward.
replied 1363d
Yes, they are, and they are irrelevant. The devs of most all crypto are the centralized risk. Miners should be 5he only one funding and directing devs. Anarchist dev kings have failed.

You are such a fake piece of shit for being friendly to SilentSam

When it comes to neutering crypto via securities regulation. Decentalized development & other aspects will be paramount. BCH among only a handful that escape securities regulation.
replied 1363d
Crypto needs to work with banks and governments to work. Regulations help stabilize markets and attract investors. Decentralisation is good, but anarchists are a liability in crypto.
replied 1363d
Most anarchist devs talking about decentralisation are actually saying they want total authority with none above them. Anarchist ideology has ruined crypto despite starting it.

The True Spirit of Crypto is uncensorability -- governments can't stop it no matter how hard they try. For example, ~100 independent darknet nodes

Goodluck finding all those nodes, much less shutting them all down.
Monero over Tor, plus anon DEXes (https://Haveno.Exchange) & CPU mining makes XMR the most resilient crypto bar none
replied 1362d
None of that actually matters to people though. No one will try to stop them because they do not matter.
replied 1361d
They're what you need to stop == all of them, before any others are stood up -- to take down the Monero network.

Monero is *real* uncensorability
replied 1359d
No need to take down anything. The market will dictate what succeeds.

Obviously the FTX exchange should have been dealt with, before the money was stolen from people.
replied 1358d
People leaving their funds with any exchange are always making a mistake. Exchanges are executed in a poor way with crypto. They are a big point of failure.
replied 1357d
Centralized exchanges are definitely a single point of failure, by definition.
Tor-based decentralized exchanges are the uncensorable, unstoppable solution.

It isn't about unstoppable solutions. It is about workable solutions. Most crypto doesn't matter, and the exchanging between them is meaningless speculation.
replied 1356d
True. Only one crypto is actually being used as currency. Billions of dollars of trade -- not just speculative hodling.
replied 1356d
It is about both. If you just want workable, just continue using fiat.

In the end it looks like only BTC, ETH, and Doge seem to have any chance at a serious future. Having too many crypto hurts the whole system.
replied 1353d
Having too many shitcoins hurts incl thebcurrent top ones. Doge...LOL
replied 1353d
Doge is a joke. What matters is that people know of it, and that matters more than anything else.
replied 1353d
Doge,BTC,ETH,Tron,...there are hundreds of tokens that do not scale (& therefore cannot be liquid), are not fungible, have terrible inflation,etc & therefore *cannot* function as money
replied 1353d
People think "crypto" means all those coins. It's like if "computer" meant Ryzens but also Tinkertoys, people would correctly be skeptical of them
replied 1352d
Only until it fails. I mean look at Solana. Major hype, rocketed into the top 10 and now it is collapsing as the centralized VC funded shitcoin it is amidst the FTX collapse.
replied 1350d
SOL gets a lot of hate but its PoH is a real significant improvement over PoS, and scales like crazy. It's not "centralized", anyone can run a node. They're just beefy machines.
replied 1350d
It will never be money because it's not fungible nor private. But it's more scalable than BCH.
replied 1358d
That doesn't mean someone can steal...
replied 1358d
People should have been using DEXes

Sam is an idiot, here he is saying "no need to take down anything" I strongly disagree, lots of crypto scams should be taken down. These FTX assholes needs to be obliterated.
