That's unmitigated low-effort BULLSHIT, and I will prove it: there's always been a lot of scammers trying to shill cryptocurrency on HN, but the fact that most people here don't tolerate that bullshit and quickly shoot it down, and that the moderation system makes it hard for them to reply and easy to detect sock-puppets, discourages them and hurts their precious feelings, so they usually go away for a while, or create alternate sock-puppet accounts, but they often come back eventually and keep pushing their schemes.
Case in point: For an archetypical example that proves my point, take a look at notorious "SPAM KING" and crypto scammer Richard Heart's posting history and ten pages of google search results, who repeatedly tries to shill his PoS get-rich-quick pyramid schemes here. And heeeeee's baaaaack. So go take the effort to reply to HIS posts, not mine.
I've put quite some effort into researching who he really is (his actual name is Richard J Schueler, which he changed to obscure his sordid history) and what he's done in the past (he's the winner of the "Golden Pump Award" for "Best New Scam" for "HEX", and I discovered that he's one of the first people in the world to be successfully sued for online spam, specifically the Viagra spam scheme that he ran from Panama, which he lost, under his previous name "Richard J Schueler"), and I looked into his latest racket that he's been pushing here on HN and many other places (HEX), and I've put in the effort to reply to his posts and write up the facts, with lots of links and quotes as proof, and ask him point-blank straightforward questions that he was afraid to answer, to inform other people about him, and give him a chance to explain his side of the story, which he failed to do.
So did I put enough effort into replying to him, with enough links and quotes to satisfy your curiosity and thirst for proof? Is that high enough effort for you or not? Or now is that TOO MUCH effort in your opinion? Or do you actually think I OWE him even more of my time and effort replying to his frequent and fraudulent shilling and dodging questions?
>[...] Richard J Schueler, it's true that you're a biased shill, but there are many other very legitimate reasons not to listen to anything you say, such as the fact that you falsely claim that proof of stake is a proven successful replacement for proof of work. And also the following reasons, based on your own words, that I will cite and link to, and the fact that you refuse to address them and answer simple straightforward questions, and repeat things like "Dodge, dodge" instead.

So why don't YOU take your own advice, put your shitcoin where your mouth is, and show us exactly what a high effort reply to cryptocurrency shilling (that's also not too much effort) would look like, instead of showering us with so many low effort whiney uninformative bullshit defenses of cryptocurrency shills, and petulantly complaining about other people's low effort replies to them?
SHOW don't TELL. The ball's in your court. Or is that not how you roll, because you're actually just yet another tone policing concern troll, hiding behind a pseudonym, who will simply "Dodge, Dodge" and create another sock-puppet account after you've burnt this one, rosndo?
