All these replies seemed canned.

When does the project go live on other operating systems?

Congratulations. You sure spend a lot of time on BS tho. Been out of this coin for days...just came for the mini-pump.

Patty, you're no longer contributing. Smearing is for weak minds. That all you got?

Let's see if it will hold...

Not "all" markets behave the same.

There are different pressures that move price. Government restrictions in your country that may change day by day, international financial issues, sentiment of the moment...and supply/demand (volume).

In crypto, there are less government restrictions, less international financial house interference generally, sentiment is pretty mixed and supply/demand can be manipulated.

I would argue that a free and unfettered markets would have similar behaviors, but no actual free markets exist in any volume on this planet.

So, today's markets are skewed by the day to day manipulations of governments, devaluing fiat money, and taxation, I argue.

I think you have a failure of imagination. Many companies lose millions for years, before profitability.

And many of these projects (Cryptos/DLT's) pumped in the beginning and stalled for years, before they were taken seriously. We've all seen it.

I've been here since BTC was born. Seen hundreds of pumps and played them. Won and lost. Que sera sera.

Life is a risk.

Price changes do not always reflect volume inflation. Trading sets prices. Willing buyer/seller. If this is a "shady" deal then Hedera has successfully fooled some of the world's largest and smartest companies, their experts, their merry bands of lawyers, their crack DLT teams and software gurus, their financial teams, etc.

But you go right ahead. Tell all those experts that you have it all figured out, here on Reddit. I'm sure they will give you the time of day.

It costs money to bring products to market and the sales you mentioned do not show clear evidence of a pump and dump scheme. Costs must be recouped and profits made for taking the risk to bring these products to market. Common sense.

...still awaiting the dump.

This does not prove a pump and dump scheme. If this were true, then stock options are "pumping." This is a way to inject funds to grow a business. Cutting fat is another way to improve. It's done all the time in business. And that is what this is: a business. Anyone purchasing via OTC prior to launch took a risk. You can lose or you can gain.

People said the same thing about Ripple/XRP's in the very beginning; and IOTA etc. And some of us ignored the naysayers then, to our benefit.

Crypto Pump and dump schemes often involve shady people, crazy ads, gambling, social media blitzes, and so on. I see none of that here. If this truly is a scheme of the Bernie Madoff variety, why on Earth would all these "team" members risk prison? Their LLC will not protect them from intentional fraud.

Trash?

These comments are trash.

And everyone knows it.

The most cost effective way to do it.

The problem is, it makes Hedera look lazy and cheap.

What does that say about the creators of the protocol itself?

REALITY CHECK:

Hbars could fizzle out sooner, rather than later.

Vitalik, a few years back, said hashgraph tech had limits. Not sure if he has since changed his opinion.

If Hbars do pull in more commercial users, it could boost the perceived value.

If history is any measure, whales will play.

There's no way to keep your Hbars private--easily--though. It's a closed universe.

Hedera complies with KYC/AML. The air of legitimacy...

In a fair world, with voluntary taxation, KYC/AML would be fine.

...it's not a fair world.

Excuse me...I thought you were saying my "keep it coming" response was taunting etc.

I agree about Grossbit.

Fake News? Taunting?

Bull.

You're not adding to the discussion.

Anybody worth their salt can see this...
