ThickAsThieves: consider also that tatvm enabled me to do every release after it
ThickAsThieves: am i a criminal for profiting off jurov when he did the opposite?
ThickAsThieves: if it werent for the dramatic mining diff changes that came like 1 week after release
ThickAsThieves: i regret that some people really did not understand what they were buying, despite utter transparency
ThickAsThieves: if it dies it will be due to my attention span more likely
ThickAsThieves: First, I didn't really realize what would happen, and I really did not intend to harm. However, I do regret it.
ThickAsThieves: i do wish mircea was here, because even if i'm outright in the wrong, he'd at least be able to make that clear. i'm having real trouble with these arguments.
ThickAsThieves: asciilifeform, you are likely right, but it is already shaping up to be an interesting excercise
ThickAsThieves: Maybe, I make Altcoin, it does pretty good, then something goes bad and people lose a bunch of money. Then I admit you guys were right. The guilt eats my soul til I realize I must now design the best coin ever. I do, and it kills bitcoin, and the world basks in a new dawn of finance. I load up IRC "sup fuckers, good thing I made Altcoin!"

ThickAsThieves: seriously, you cant definitively win one argument and now i'm a shill
ThickAsThieves: you are saying the NEED is required for value to exist
ThickAsThieves: again i think this is a false assumption as well, alts needing new concepts
ThickAsThieves: the problem is you are making assumptions that are false
ThickAsThieves: would you count marginal success in that as a good thing?
ThickAsThieves: well if we go buy the Altcoin's mission it's purpose is to get everyone to stop mining every other altcoin
ThickAsThieves: you cant die from frostbite while bathing in lava either
ThickAsThieves: i havent even pondered what my investment strategy might be for it
ThickAsThieves: so far its mostly been an expression for me, some luls sure, but kinda performance art
ThickAsThieves: what if the other just wants to do create the thing to see what happens
