If your assertion is correct that Everett truly "broke" Stellar, than they will be worthless and he will have gained nothing. Your logic is contradictory.


You make 0 sense. I'm not sure if you just have trouble following what I wrote or what the issue is.

> If your assertion is correct that Everett truly "broke" Stellar

1) That is not what I said. Much like the person who doesn't understand what "farming" means in context, I'm just going to assume poor comprehension on your part.

2) Even if that is what I said, he gained internet points and attention. That is still technically speaking "gain", at which point...you are still wrong.

So, I think the issue here is:

1) You can't understand what I wrote either due to me or your poor reading comprehension.

2) You don't realize what you said is inherently false, regardless.

At this point, I'm mainly just amused by how everyone leaps up to defend a guy who basically stole Stellars and then waited until he was called out to say anything.

I wonder how well that would work at a bank. Care to try it for me?


He didn't steal them. He bought them from others. Meaning that he valued them more than the others. Welcome to economics.

Also, you very clearly used the words "break the system".


Please use ctrl+f if you believe I said that. The only one that comes up is you.

I'm done talking to you.


Sorry, "break [the] mechanisms", of which the system is composed. Also, nice dodge on the other point.

So far your only arguments are that he got "internet cool points" by gaming a broken mechanism, even if Stellar turns out worthless, and... Oh, that looks like it.
