According to your definition, casinos and online gambling isn't a scam, because what they do is well-defined. If I use 'scam' to mean a reliable way for the downtrodden to become even more downtrodden, or 'bitcoin' as a shorthand for cryptocurrency, telling me I'm wrong because you have a different definition of those words is not an impressive rhetorical feat. And you claim I'm the bad faith actor in this conversation.

And as soon as you were challenged about statements you made on-topic, you disappear. I welcome your retreat. I would choose not to have more conversations with people like you.

OP’s IQ in the negative

The only reason we are here is you have asserted Monero is a scam, we have since agreed that Monero does not have a known leak, so I'm no longer concerned about the "scam" aspect as far as leaks go and have no further interest in this discussion with you.

Man, OP is some kinda non-sequitur savant. You were more than fair in your attempts to engage with his disjointed and ephemeral “arguments”

Holy shit, your replies made me lose brain cells.
