Read_447 – Bitcoin Isn’t Slow, Its Highly Secure [Vlad Costea]

“So the next time somebody says that “shitcoin X” is faster than Bitcoin or claims that Bitcoin is slow, show them the criteria that truly count in a decentralized network.” – Vlad Costea
Did you hear that any 1 of 1000s of altcoins was “way faster” than Bitcoin? Have you ever wondered what that means or what exactly they are faster at? Vlad breaks it all down. How shitcoins aren’t fast, even close to as fast actually as Bitcoin. Bitcoin isn’t slow, its highly secure!

Read_446 – The Great Plague of Shitcoinery [Thibaud Marechal]

“Battles in the money market aren’t about incremental technology features, but fundamental monetary properties. Bitcoin is a pragmatic monetary evolution, which contrasts with shitcoin issuers misrepresenting a delusional technology revolution.” – Thibaud Marechal
Another great piece on the incentives and misunderstanding of the shitcoin mindset. It isn’t a technological revolution, it is fundamentally a monetary one! Thibaud breaks it down amazingly in this piece and Guy gets into some history of the shitcoin term and how so many projects have the entirely wrong understanding of the value in this revolution. Don’t miss another excellent one from Bitcoin Magazine
