But we are, for better and for worse.

At less than 30 TPS, long confirmation times, hight tx fees.... Yeah, its likely a good asset to own economically speaking, but it doesn't solve any other problems than centralization of an asset. Although, you can argue that the value is heavily influenced. In the tech world it usually "is, until it isn't". Also, let's not have an involvement span dick size contest.

Or its just another pump & dump scheme on a large scale.

As long as you hold less than 10% of your portfolio, it's a good thing to say. Otherwise, you're just being plain stupid and likely throwing your money away to the trash.

People will eventually loose interest and motivation for crypto bullshit in general. To paraphrase Chris DeRose - "if banks are running Apache to serve their coins, why would anyone go for a blockchain?". What can you actually use blockchain fo and why would you, instead of the well known solutions?

Its a very scummy (& scammy) thing to do, especially because Rhonix Labs ZTE is based in Dubai is the haven of get-rich-quick schemes and the lack of accountability. Slave labour is perfectly acceptable there. Plenty of examples, if you google "dubai ". Yes - slaves still exist in some places.

Honestly, if Rhonix decide to sell their own token, without honoring REV in any way, it will damage its own reputation as it took the source code from the RChain project,which was sponsored by the REV holders.
