It can't be a better anything with reliance on the Chinese miners and the mining cartels in general. Bitcoin was a decent initial implementation of the idea, but there are better and more resilient technologies in 2017. I am not blind; I just don't accept the solution as a technologist with 30+ years of experience and as one of the first Bitcoin adopters. I am disgusted by the kind of people Bitcoin attracts today and I don't want to be associated with that crown in any possible way!

What are those "more resilient technologies" that you speak about? I want to know, because all the other shitcoins are either more centralized or a scam and not worth looking at in my opinion. I dare you to tell me another cryptocurrency that is more decentralized than bitcoin. > I am disgusted by the kind of people Bitcoin attracts today and I don't want to be associated with that crown in any possible way! What I want to know is why you associate the technology with the people, or why even generalize the whole community because of a few bad actors. I agree there are many toxic people in bitcoin, but you know what? I don't give a shit, just ignore them I'd say. There are far worse people in the current financial system, but you don't seem to be talking about that, I wonder why.
