There are a lot of possible ways. Maybe a pool had control for long enough to do one.

cloneBotsharesX is not a clone
What you don't seem to grasp is the value of BitShares X that accepts the controversy, speaks economically and takes itself as seriously as it deserves.Oh I grasp how serious everyone here takes themselves, the "crypto-masters"
If you did understand this you'd be buying instead of waiting for a crash, and you'd figure out a way to make money out of this knowledge instead of wasting your time.
First off, this is not a tribal rant
First off, this is not a tribal rant--it is to explain seemingly simple concepts to someone who would rather impishly troll than accept facts. BM is among the most skilled developers in this space. He is...well, definitely a better person to listen to than, say, you. Who are you again?Again, I said that I am not talking about the tech. BitsharesX has great developers, have I claimed otherwise? No, simply asking any questions gets deemed as a "troll". Thanks a lot, so is this some kind of show off your CV in order to back up your argument piss fest? Im not asking questions about development, so there is no need to keep bringing it up.
Secondly, ANY asset put up on any exchange is either an Open Joke (and thus not an asset) or by its very name IMPLIED to be backed by value in some form. Otherwise stop calling them assets. As far as these "Asset" exchanges all go though, they all seem to imply their exchange has something of value there...otherwise who would go on to sell one shitcoin for another shitcoin backed by only jokes?YES exactly, a coin backed by jokes, jokes are of value that is the point.
As far as "all crypto"....there is not a single "coin" out there to which your (incorrect) argument doesn't apply. The only reason Bitcoin is at present exchangeable for goods and services is people gave it value by accepting it for goods and services.uhhh, what is "my" argument then? Yes I agree with you, that is why bitcoin has value. Bitcoin does not claim to be backed by anything, bitUSD doesnt claim that either, but it is not written very big, it could be deemed "selling dumb people on the dream". Im sure you will bring up something about development now.
As far as these crazy comments about "bitcoin killer"...there are people on every forum saying this stuff. Get over yourself. Bitcoin will likely be around for a long long time. I bought bitshares with ...can you guess it? Bitcoin!Yes, those are comments, except your own ft. knox is an offical slogan. The comments show the get rich modivation, nothing to do with "evolution" or "technology", again the us vs. them is strong here. On every forum? But but but... it is suppost to be so different here..."evolution"
As far as China and them "ceasing to buy"...good luck on that one bud. Do you slam a couple pints before you come on here?If you have not noticed , I joke sometimes, oh yea the VC is from china, then yea they will hold that shit up for sure.
"its backed by the network and security model, dummy"?
hese are the VERY same arguments people have had with all of cryptoall crypto = all crypto does not hold up. I know that there are not physical assets backing doge or bitcoin, there is also no attempt to create assets that have names of physical assets or nation state fiat without having these assets or fiat in hand.
Kind of like a really well branded, packaged and polished turd. And everyone is waving their polished turds, shouting around to each other "omg man, this candy bar is so good!"This is exactly the same here, see marketing.
the crypto-masters' legitimate attempt at true evolution in marketsThere it is "crypto-masters"
crypto-masterslooking down to the sheep and herding them in keep repeating the mantras"your own ft.knox" just picture it.
"Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."Except that it is not an imitation
is better than selling dumb people on the dream that an altcoin will have a legitimate value.
