Whats the difference between how ETH was shilled vs other spam shit coins?

>>2008106
That's what I was trying to find out, there's no real difference as far as I can tell.

>>2008126
You will have to do your own research. I was one of the early ones in eth and I read up on all the coins shilled here but eth struck out to me


That's al you have to do to tell what the shills are, just read up on the coins and see if it has actual substance

Here's some good ETH quotes from this time last year

>ether is DONE DAO was like 99% of the point of ether. you dont buy ether or you will lose all you invest. its going to zero town. a year from now you'll have to pay somebody to accept your cancer eth KEK

>Slowly bleeding out on the cold, cold floor. It's a lovely sight.

BEST ONE:
>I was about to buy Ethereum when it first reached $14. I had my cursor over the "Buy" button and my finger on the left mouse button. Then I realized how stupid that was.

(sarcasm):
>Yeha man definitely not a scamcoin. pre-mined shitcoins are never scams.This is the face of a man you can trust!

>>2008319
were they all "it's a scamcoin" or was there any positive shilling going on?

>>2008332
vast majority were negative, honestly i got the feel that if i was in that thread I wouldn't have payed any attention to eth

>>2008186
That's the thing, a lot of the coins here are substantive and would have seemed more viable than Eth and its "smart contracts" if the coins of today were shilled along with Eth a couple years ago.

I still remember people badmouthing smart-contracts as just another meme, which, it seemed to really be. Just as with Bitcoin, few could have predicted that Ether coin was more than just a flavor-of-the-month meme, and most others just got lucky.

Furthermore, Eth's meme status seemed to have been cemented with with the DAO hack, forks, and Vitalik's constant sell-offs.

In truth, very little distinguishes a worthwhile coin from a cleverly (or not so cleverly) disguised scam-coin.

The moral is that it's all a fucking gamble and nobody really has any idea what they're talking about.

I feel this so much, everything is just a joke, nothing matters, nobody knows anything about whether a stock will go up or down. it's a meme world out there
