Changing the specs is fine. Just call it what it is then. I do not care what the specs are honestly. It's just that changing them for this reason is showing the world that this coin is only worried about the short term price and making a profit. If the dev really has this great anon code then it would be a shame to waste it on a coin where the community only cares about its current price. How many bitcoin get dumped daily? People continue to buy bitcoin because it is useful and has an obvious future, so they know the coin will out last the current dump. These people see dumps as a chance to get cheap coins that in a few years will most likely be worth much more. If an alt coin is only only relying on the current price it is by definition nothing but a pump and dump coin. Go ahead and change the specs, if the the anon wallet is legit it won't matter. I'm simply pointing out that by doing so the community is admitting they do not believe the innovation in this coin can survive dumps. If you think your model is the best then you should be supported some pos only coin that was distributed through an ipo.
No, it is the opposite. We are not worrying about the short term price -- but the long term price!! Veritas just explained this above.
The main problem is that over 75% of the coins are going to be minted AFTER the biggest selling feature (anon tech) is released. This is going to kill the coin in the long term. People buy on news, and they sell on facts. Why can't you guys understand this?
Also -- it is taking an
unnecessary risk to assume that the anon feature will defy the normal patterns of alt coins. You cannot compare an alt coin's market patterns to BTC. Why not heed our advice to ensure the highest probability of sustaining a healthy coin, long term?
100% agree with this --> the biggest problem here is that the main selling feature (anon) will be released and then 75% of the supply will be mined after that. I can only see this hurting the coin long term. Or, to put it positively - it will grow the coin
SIGNIFICANTLY less than the coin would grow if total supply block reward were reduced.
