if you buy bitcoin (because the paid shills will tell you to, and you might be retarded enough to do it) sell if you lose 20% of your initial investment and hold any forked coins until after this all blows over.

presume everyone's a liar. most are.

why the fuck would anyone make or use a coin that's not erc20 compliant? you literally require an oracle or a trusted third party to trade with others. you also have to worry about all the shit that eth abstracts away like mining and forking. xmr made sense for a little while but now eth has anonymous transactions.

i know the legacy bitcoin chain isn't erc20 compliant yet and probably never will be. that's their problem and will hurt adoption by having a completely different blockchain that has to manage pow on its own. if they wanted anonymous transactions for example they'd have to do ANOTHER hard fork. meanwhile every single erc20 token gets that for free.

i'm just not seeing it. it's like coding a programming language from scratch to add features that already exist in node.js libraries.

what's the point?
