ArticMine: I see you did the Digital Cash Network interview?
-
sgp_
Watching now but I probably won't finish it before I go to sleep; did it go okay?
-
ArticMine
Yes it was interesting
-
sgp_
Do you know who Joel is?
-
ArticMine
I do. He is closely related to Dash
-
sgp_
Okay, glad it went well
-
ArticMine
It was to some extent a careful exercise in diplomacy
-
sgp_
Haha I yell at Coin Center for comparing Monero to mixing, and you do :)
-
ArticMine
Yeah the interview was recorded before your comments
-
ArticMine
The key though is what is being mixed
-
ArticMine
Signature rather than coins
-
sgp_
I know but most people don't know the difference sadly
-
sgp_
They hear mixer and think CoinJoin or central service
-
sgp_
I'll watch the whole thing later, glad you enjoyed it
-
ArticMine
It has a critical legal difference
-
sgp_
Yup which is why I avoid the term :)

"The key though is what is being mixed. Signature rather than coins" >> Hmm, this might make a good (short-ish) post on Monero Outreach or similar. A nice explanation that's something to point to, when the subject gets brought up

ArticMine - just heard your recent interview - found it very interesting, thanks! And kudos to Joel for being a good interviewer, not interrupting too much, and letting you talk. Was a bit sceptical at first, when I saw he was a Dash fan!

Inge-
oh wow. Tone calls Monero a "high quality shitcoin" :D
-
nioc
some good shit
-
Inge-
I guess it is an endorsement. "Monero is good shit" -Tone Vays
-
sech1
is it someone relevant?
-
sech1
influencer?
-
dEBRUYNE
Inge-: Link?
-
dEBRUYNE
sech1: Bitcoin 'influencer' basically
-
rot
Inge-: lol, for real? have a link to the specific timing and video?
-
rot
Tone Vays is maximus btc trader man in town.
-
Inge-
dEBRUYNE: yesterday's YouTube video - someone asks him if monero is a shitcoin, and he.. hesitates, then calls it a quality shitcoin (nite my above quote was not entirely verbatim, some creative license)
-
Inge-
rot: didnt take the timestamp
-
» rot hits Inge- shoulder with a $.99 wrench
-
ArticMine
The thing about Tone Vays is that he has been almost entirely right over time. Monero just happens to be one of the very rare exceptions
-
ArticMine
Ethereum is another

ArticMine: being right in the sense of calling shitcoin scams?
-
rot
in my early days i liked his cryptoscam podcast. after that i pretty much nuked his voice and presence off of the horizon. got bored.
-
rot
shitcoin this, shitcoin that. corn to 3 trillion.
-
dixie__flatline[
3 trillion? Bro at least 300 gazillion
-
ArticMine
<dixie__flatline[> ArticMine: being right in the sense of calling shitcoin scams? <--- Not just that. Even decent projects such as Litecoin have over time really underperformed Bitcoin
-
ArticMine
But yes shitcoin scams are very much the majority
-
ArticMine
It is like he is right like 99.9 % of the time Wrong 0.1% of the time. It just happens that Monero falls in the 0.1%
-
Inge-
Tones trading system called out the bottom in xmrbtc pretty elegantly
-
binaryFate
Isn't he advertising for xmrbtc trending towards 0?
-
Inge-
He makes some bone-headed claims from time to time. One of them being that any given non-btc coin trends down to at most 3% of BTC
-
Inge-
but his trading system was basically flashing "BOTTOM IMMINENT" at 0.0062
