You are complaining about receiving free money, but not caring about it until the price went up recently. How is this even remotely Stellar's issue?

>>You are complaining about receiving free money Aside from the fact that this is a terrible line of argumentation ("Person A gave you $100 and then Person B later stole it out of your house, what's your problem with that?"), that is not the point of my comment at all. I suggest you read a bit more specifically in regards to service, transactional security, and the fact that the coin is federated and not decentralized.

  You didn't even realise for a long time that you lost access to it. It's like me remembering that I had some BTC, but can't access them anymore and blaming Bitcoin developers for not getting rich. Stellar not being decentralised, even 90% of nodes are not run by the SDF, makes it somehow unsecure? If you have some specific complaint about the security point it out, instead you are just ranting on an anecdote.

    >>If you have some specific complaint about the security point it out I did, in the post. I'm not sure why you are making a big deal about the money I lost. I am certainly not. It is about the mechanism by which it happened and how they didn't take it very seriously. EDIT: I am also not even sure to this day what the value of XLM is, and don't particularly care. I gather from your post that it has gone up. Congratulations. I think XLM's architecture and use case makes a lot of sense. I also think their developers and support team are quite poor. That is the intent of my post.

    care to disclose what connection you have with Stellar -- your blind defense and smoke screening makes it seem like you have an interest in making sure bad press (legit or not) doesn't come to light.

How he got the currency has ZERO standing on the issue that he described.
